Dear Open Space Facilitator, BigMindMedia (http://www.bigmindmedia.com) has teamed with OSonOS IX to offer a BigMind Catalyst Online Open Space environment free of charge during and for one month after this weekend's event in Vancouver.
Face-to-face and virtual participants will both be present in this Catalyst Open Space. The Marketplace Wall in Vancouver will be mirrored in Catalyst for all to see and use during the 2.5 day Vancouver event (August 19-21). All are welcome to join the Plenary and Cafe areas as well as Marketplace sessions. Beginning Wednesday August 22, two additional OSonOS periods will be convened online, each lasting two weeks. Both virtual and face to face participants are invited to join in the marketplace. BigMindMedia launched its BigMind Catalyst software in January 2001. The Online Open Space module was just completed and has been used in beta form by Dee Hock's Terra Civitas and the Tahoe Sustainability Institute. Our goal is to co-create the best possible online Open Space environment for OS facilitators to use in their daily work. To accomplish that goal, we need your participation and input. Come and enjoy OSonOS IX with us... and help us create the the future of Open Space Online. If you will be in Vancouver... You will be pre-registered and will receive both a handout and an email confirmation. If you will NOT be in Vancouver... Registration is simple, just point your browser to: http://catalyst.bigmindmedia.com/osonoslogin.html and click the "Register" link. Many thanks to Chris Corrigan and Laurel Doersam, the organizers of OSonOS IX, for all of their hard work and their willingness to experiment with new forms of opening space. I look forward to seeing you in Vancouver and in Catalyst! Gabriel ---------------------------------- -- Gabriel Shirley - gabr...@bigmindmedia.com BigMindMedia - http://www.bigmindmedia.com P.O.
