Hi

 

Contexts:  This WDL is 5 weekly online sessions. 

 

Last week the overall invitation was “What’s Happening?”  It was apparent that 
our shared ‘covid world’ experience was obvious and connecting.  

 

Yesterday the question was “What’s essential?”

 

In this iteration of WDL, each breakout group is presented with a triad of big 
picture notions, eg “Family, Technology, Economics”.  So huge for 25 mins, that 
it was almost incidental.  Caring and considered sharing happened.

 

I look forward to debriefing with my friend, one of the organisers, about how 
and why the stimulus questions or provocations were chosen.

 

I hear you Michael.  Why bother?  That’s why to participate I had to suspend my 
dis-belief.  I’ll evaluate it with more rigour after the 5 sessions.  What will 
I learn and understood differently?  What is the pace of WDL in the world of 
open spaces.

 

So, really appreciat the interest and gentle tussle by open-spacers.  Thank you 
all J

 

 

All the best, Robyn

Hi Robyn, Jeff, and Bhavesh,

 

Thanks for sharing. Any indication of what "contexts" are set at each table?

 

All the best,

Jake

Certainly the Law is being used. 

 

The Principles that help us with detachment may not need to be raised, because 
there are no topic convenors to get attached to their topics and who comes to 
them. All the topics (contexts) are chosen by the facilitator in advance.

Sounds interesting, I read this on the website:

 

"The format of the Warm Data Lab is simple, even though the theory that 
underpins it is not. 

*       A chosen complex issue is provided by the room;
*       Start by being seated 3-6 to a table ( depending on the size of the 
group).
*       Each table has a “context” on it that will be the frame through which 
the “complex issue” is discussed at that table. (at least 6 contexts)
*       Participants (as individuals) discuss at the tables as long as they 
wish before changing tables. They move when they want to another table or 
“context.”
*       There are no time limits, or set instructions. Participants join and 
leave conversations as they wish.
*       The process usually takes at least an hour, and can be continued.
*       Discussion"

Sounds like the Principles and Law of OST are being used?

Hi

 

Is anyone familiar or experienced with warm Data Labs (Nora Bateson)?  I’m 
wondering about the comparison and contrast with OST.  Your thoughts?

 

I’m currently participating in 5-weekly Zoom sessions intended to offer an 
experiential introduction to this process.

 

Warm Data Labs are group processes, which illustrate interdependency and 
generate understandings of systemic patterns for people with no previous 
exposure to systems theory. Warm Data Labs enable new societal responses to 
complex challenges.

All the best,
