Thomas Herman opening space in Sweeden

 The Swedish Transport Administration hired Thomas Herrmann, Open Space Consulting to facilitate an Open Space Techonology meeting in January 2011. A diverse group worked together to find ways to enhance the effects of implementing Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). This film gives a good view of the whole process during the day from "opening of space" until convergence and action teams forming. English subtitles. (text from the YouTube site)

Wosonos 2012

See here a 4´30´´ video shot and edited by Jeppe Lajer on his iphone. Great job! You can get a taste on the following video of what the World Open Space on Open Space was like in London 2012. Like the music? "The Sound of Swing (Oh Na Na)" (The Kenneth Bager Experience)



People liked this visual summary much and some of them expressed it on the oslist... Christy Lee-Engel, for example: "I have the odd sensation of nostalgia for a time and place I haven't been - except I guess that maybe all Open Space (and Time) is just one space and place and time, even though of course unique and never to be repeated ;-)"

We also had the pleassure to take part in it and in Lisa Heft´s previous training workshop. Feel free to ask for the materials generated in both (eleder-dot-aurtenetxe-at-gmail-dot-com).


And, thanks to Karl Royle, we can also see in the following 19´ video how Phelim McDermott opened the space in Stoke Newington. One can learn much watching other experienced colleagues...



Enjoy life!

I´m new here (Gil Sott-Heron)

Yaari Pannwitz plays with the words of this great song to announce his coming back to the oslist... (Oct 2012)

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/g/gil_scott_heron/im_new_here.html]

I did not become someone different
That I did not want to be
But I'm new here
Will you show me around

No matter how far wrong you've gone
You can always turn around

Met a woman in a bar
Told her I was hard to get to know
And near impossible to forget
She said I had an ego on me
The size of Texas

Well I'm new here and I forget
Does that mean big or small

No matter how far wrong you've gone You can always turnaround

And I'm shedding plates like a snake
And it may be crazy but I'm
The closest thing I have
To a voice of reason

Turnaround turnaround turnaround
And you may come full circle
And be new here again
