In our last year’s unconference >>>> participants felt that the burning issues of the 21st century could only >>>> be >>>> solved by using new collaborative methods, changing the ways we work >>>> together, and finding novel approaches to co-operation. Thus, this >>>> year’s >>>> conference, titled “Making the Most of Collaborative Worlds – Physical, >>>> Virtual and Blended Collaboration”, focuses on understanding the changes >>>> that are required at individual, team, and organizational levels to deal >>>> with these issues. >>>> >>>> We are also announcing a new name for the conference, Radical Real-Time. >>>> It reflects our radically different approach to collaborative >>>> engagement. >>>> Thank you Christina Jordan for coming up with the name! We feel that >>>> “Real-Time Virtual Collaboration (RTVC)” taught us much during its first >>>> year and has deserved this new forward-looking name. >>>> >>>> The purpose of the Radical Real-Time unconference is to provide a global >>>> forum where we all can come together, explore topics of common interest, >>>> learn, and create sustainable actions. Our unconference structure is >>>> loosely >>>> based on the principles of Open Space Technology, which has >>>> revolutionized >>>> large group gatherings by allowing the passion and responsibility of >>>> relevant stakeholders to drive the conference agenda. Radical Real-Time >>>> participants will be able to explore topics most important to them, and >>>> convene breakout sessions using a variety of virtual tools. Besides >>>> proposing a topic of interest, session conveners may also choose the >>>> collaboration platform of their choice. If you are a newbie to the use >>>> of >>>> virtual tools, the Radical Inclusion team will be on hand to provide >>>> technical support. Radical Real-Time conference is free of charge. >>>> >>>> This was the feedback of Harrison Owen, the inventor of Open Sace >>>> Technology on our last year's event: "That was a great tour of a >>>> marvelous >>>> adventure! Cyberspace IS Open Space. And the Internet works exactly the >>>> same >>>> way as every Open Space — totally self-organizing. I think what you are >>>> doing is identifying various aspects of the Internet that make the whole >>>> experience more useful. Sort of like finding new rooms in the venue, >>>> Temple >>>> Bells, Talking Sticks, etc." >>>> >>>> Read more about the conference, propose a session, or register for the >>>> event at <http://rtvc10.ning.com> http://rtvc10.ning.com >>>> >>>> § <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/events/wosonos-2010-berlin> < >>>> Previous Event >>>> >>>> § <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/events/odws-cocreating-a-new-world> >>>> Next Event > >>>> >>>> Comment Wall >>>> >>>> Comment >>>> >>>> Parte superior do formulário >>>> >>>> >>>> Parte inferior do formulário >>>> >>>> Comment by <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/profile/KathieWallace> >>>> Kathie >>>> Wallace on June 5, 2010 at 6:24pm >>>> >>>> <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/events/radical-realtime-annual> Delete >>>> CommentRadical Real-Time Virtual UnConference was amazing < >>>> http://rtvc10.ning.com> http://rtvc10.ning.com #rrt10 Many thanks to >>>> the >>>> organizers! >>>> >>>> Comment by <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/profile/ArturSilva> Artur >>>> Silva on June 3, 2010 at 7:54pm >>>> >>>> <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/events/radical-realtime-annual> Delete >>>> CommentI will attend the event and convene an Open Space like event, >>>> from >>>> 4-5 pm TMG, using Flash Meeting, with the following Title: RADICAL >>>> (TRANSFORMATIONAL) CHANGE AT THE LEVELS OF THE PERSON, COMMUNITY, >>>> ORGANIZATION AND SOCIETY AT LARGE >>>> >>>> Anyone interested can see the description here: < >>>> http://rtvc10.ning.com/events/radical-transformational> >>>> http://rtvc10.ning.com/events/radical-transformational >>>> >>>> Key Words radical change, transformational change, paradigm shift, >>>> metanoia, web 2.0, organization 2.0, emergence >>>> >>>> >>>> Regards >>>> >>>> >>>> Artur >>>> >>>> >>>> Wordwide OST NING: http://openspaceworld.ning.com/ >>>> >>>> >>>> OST Institute of Portugal: http://www.instituto-ost.pt/ >>>> >>>> >>>> * * ========================================================== >>>> [email protected] ------------------------------ To >>>> subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of >>>> [email protected]: >>>> http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about >>>> OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: >>>> http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist >>>> >>>> >>>> * >>>> * >>>> ========================================================== >>>> [email protected] >>>> ------------------------------ >>>> To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, >>>> view the archives of [email protected]: >>>> http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html >>>> >>>> To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: >>>> http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist >>>> >>>> >>>> -- >>> Michael M Pannwitz, boscop eg >>> Draisweg 1, 12209 Berlin, Germany >>> ++49-30-772 8000 >>> [email protected] >>> www.boscop.org >>> >>> >>> Check out the Open Space World Map presently showing 395 resident Open >>> Space Workers in 69 countries working in a total of 141 countries >>> worldwide >>> Have a look: >>> www.openspaceworldmap.org >>> >>> * >>> * >>> ========================================================== >>> [email protected] >>> ------------------------------ >>> To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, >>> view the archives of [email protected]: >>> http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html >>> >>> To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: >>> http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist >>> >>> >> * >> * >> ========================================================== >> [email protected] >> ------------------------------ >> To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, >> view the archives of [email protected]: >> http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html >> >> To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: >> http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist >> >> > -- > Michael M Pannwitz, boscop eg > Draisweg 1, 12209 Berlin, Germany > ++49-30-772 8000 > [email protected] > www.boscop.org > > > Check out the Open Space World Map presently showing 395 resident Open > Space Workers in 69 countries working in a total of 141 countries worldwide > Have a look: > www.openspaceworldmap.org > > * > * > ========================================================== > [email protected] > ------------------------------ > To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, > view the archives of [email protected]: > http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html > > To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: > http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist > * * ========================================================== [email protected] ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of [email protected]: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist
