no structure on content

[Birgitt Williams]

Hello friends,
I have been going through some old notes and found this quote from Peg
Holman in Sustaining Open Space published in At Work: March 1997. I liked it
and saved it and wanted to share it on the list. It seems apropos to recent
conversations regarding form.

"the genius of Open Space is that it puts no structure on content. The form
is shaped by intent and principle. ....Someone has to hold the space,
otherwise it is just another good idea before its time."
