Hi Frauke thanks for these links.
here is a group of coworking artists and creatives operating a store and gallery in Birmingham: - http://wearebham.com/about/ the Urban Agriculture project in Berlin I mentioned is another example of coworking in a different guise - see more here: http://www.monocle.com/sections/business/Web-Articles/Prinzessinnengarten/ TED.com; Howies DO-LECTURES ( http://www.dolectures.com/ ) are both examples of colearning, as is iTunes University... Hope these are useful.
