Following your simplicity, Peggy... it occurs to me that the thing that makes OS possible, in a big room, is having the big open wall to post issues and news from the sessions. So the simplest way to do OS in a big world, would be to post issues and news reports to a common wall.... which we already have, here on the OS list. (or at qiqo, or at openspaceworld.org, or google docs... but OSLIST is the oldest and simplest and most accessible and easiest to archive.)
IF the conveners in Berlin, and any other gatherings, online or other places, simply agree/commit to using the OSLIST as [at least one of] the places they post their agendas and all of their session notes, THEN all kinds of things can happen, in all kinds of places, and everyone can easily track all of it in their email. AND it juices the OSLIST conversation annually or whenever anyone convenes any sort of OSonOS event, large annual global/regional conference or small local evening bar chat. When OSonOS started, the notes were a very simple affair and at they were available in print form on the morning of the third day. No reason they can't be that simple again. And shared in real time with a much larger community of practitioners here on the OSLIST. m -- Michael Herman Michael Herman Associates 312-280-7838 (mobile) MichaelHerman.com OpenSpaceWorld.org On Fri, Mar 31, 2023 at 11:32 AM Peggy Holman via OSList < [email protected]> wrote: > So many possibilities! > > In the spirit of simplicity...How about two global gatherings a year: one > in-person somewhere in the world, one online? > > Since Jo and others are already organizing something in person, that would > take a few people to step in and volunteer to organize an online convening. > Anyone game? > > Peggy > > > _________________________________ > Peggy Holman > [email protected] > Twitter: @peggyholman > > Bellevue, WA 98006 > 206-948-0432 > www.peggyholman.com > www.journalismthatmatters.org > > Enjoy the award winning Engaging Emergence: Turning Upheaval > into Opportunity <http://www.engagingemergence.com> > > > "An angel told me that the only way to step into the fire and not get > burnt, is to become > the fire". > -- Drew Dellinger > > > On Mar 31, 2023, at 2:41 AM, Jo Töpfer via OSList <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > Dear all, > > following the lively and rich conversation I am excited about all the > future possibilities mentioned here.
