Ha hah!
I posted this link to give everyone a little peak through our window at
the daily stream of 'opportunities' (that feel like veiled threats) that
daily flood the inbox of the UK publicly funded arts org at the moment.
It's connected to the other parallel discussion going on here about
communication platforms/protocols etc (thanks peeps - it's wonderful!).
You can't just keep adding new things (no matter what they offer). They
change the ecology of people's attention, energy and resources. You have
to assess their place in the wider system of communications, reflection
and action.
In my dreams we run parallel staff teams at Furtherfield HQ (FYI
currently of 4 people spread across 2.1 full time equivalent staff)
Furtherfield 1) decides all things and engages with these
'opportunities' (for networking, leadership development, audience
segmentation, measuring, slicing, targeting) at face value, aspiring to
become an efficiently-run, data-led organisation brand.
Furtherfield 2) a Situationist networked performance troupe to "embrace,
extend, ironise" these materials in a DIWO style
....and we see what happens.
I know which team I'd like to be on; )
What we have sits daily somewhere between the two!

Should Furtherfield sign up to this.
Sounds like a trap. But it might be funny. Metrics are the current
managerialist religion - what we cannot measure we do not know. Embrace,
extend and ironise?
