Culture is our greatest way to create a point of contact - through culture, people of different ages, genders, locations, and history, can come together to enhance community spirit, and the feelings of social solidarity. Anthropologist Victor Turner had a wonderful term “Communitas” which he used to describe an all important but often rare and transient personal experience of togetherness - something that we all crave. New view points can make new bridges to intrigue and motivate us across art forms, languages, and geographical boundaries. And all this is exactly what Clear Insight Productions celebrates. With years of experience and a network of colleagues across the globe who share our belief in life-long learning and the transformative power of culture ignored to be clear, insightful and productive, we constantly look out for news, ideas, thoughts, life hacks, tips, changes of perspective and anything that keeps us actively learning and constantly improving the balance and well being of humankind. |

INSPIRATION
Clear Insight Productions was set up by Deborah Claire Procter in 1998 with the dream of conceiving projects that would create a point of contact between people of different age, gender, location, and history - projects that would enhance community spirit, the feeling of social solidarity, and allow communities to re-imagine themselves.
With this clearly in view Clear Insight Productions is a not only a production company but a platform to share the best of contemporary culture.
The approach is multi-disciplinary drawing on many sources. The core belief is that the skills of creativity, inventiveness and imagination can naturally make for happier and more fulfilled lives. Culture brings important new ways of being, doing and knowing

New perspectives
"A change of perception is the start to a change in direction." D C Procter

"I've always been an experimenter and a seeker of new perspectives. One step on this journey was setting up Clear Insight Productions.
As a multi-media artist and a mentor for clients seeking a big change in their lives, I get a huge amount of pleasure from being part of making new cultural projects, and working with people wanting to make more of life. It is like, we are all dreaming of other versions of ourselves and so helping people get closer to those parts of themselves is fascinating. In Wales that would perhaps be called "Hiraeth" which is a longing that you can't quite touch but that drives you forward to find home. My passion and ongoing study of the field of personal development has put me in touch with some of the best teachers in theatre, music, dance, NLP, martial arts and so on. I admit this drive has made me an addict of finding life hacks and new ways towards inner game mastery because when we move out of bewilderment, past disappointment, and arrive at clarity and insightfulness it's a kind of magic. It’s a constant joy to create projects of my own as well as to work with colleagues and clients to help them in their goals of a more clear, insightful and productive live. Through Clear Insight Production my mission is to create bridges using contemporary culture as a catalyst for our diversity, sustainabilty and united future. I'm not always either clear, insightful or productive, yet I am dedicated to the pursuit of those goals. Somewhere between "pasión y locura" - "paz y unidad." |

INSIGHT

"I'm an adventurer. I like invention,
I like discovery." Karlheinz Stockhausen (Composer) Obviously in art and life "clear insight" is far from easy to find, yet it the search enriches us.
With this in mind Clear Insight Productions - with just a touch of irony - is a space fostering the creation and diffusion of the best of contemporary culture.
