Dear Peggy, have a look at event nr.79 on my website (open space, Veranstaltungen and then go to Nr. 79), it had to do with revitalizing the inner city of Wolfsburg (this is where VW has its major production plants). Reinhard Kuchenmueller (with a crew of 2 other people) created about 200 A5 drawings using a highly developed technique that employs certain colors etc. These were clustered and presented on a large wall parallel to the other stuff going on. He also created a story that he narrated for the entire group one evening. Also, as you can see in the photos accompanying nr. 79 there were art students that created models from plans participants created and a painter who created water color pictures. It was interesting and colorful and fun, including the theater people present who did sketches on the event in the evenings. All of this together created a lot of different levels and ways of looking at the work and the group...it was not anything the group did itself. It also narrowed the space for them to perhaps do some of this stuff on their own. So, if a sponsor would inquire about introducing this kind of recording I would probably explore the purpose, goal, intent. More on graphic recording under the title "visual facilitators" at http://www.visuelle-protokolle.de/eng/start.html In Seattle http://www.fullcirc.com/community/visualfacilitation2.htm in San Francisco http://www.grove.com/ they have been into this in a highly professional way for some time, offer workshops, etc.
