dear jennifer,
I say: off-limits for visions!
why ?
visons are fixing a personal dreams.
a dream is something what exist already in the mind of someone.
there is nothing new in visions, because it´s visioning an existing dream.
there is no surprise in a vision, because it´s basing on something known.
visions stop the process of selforganizing.
instead of visions bring in touch some ideas of some different people
and there will surge a lot of real new ideas within a moment,
ideas to which no one of the participant for himself could have been
prepared. be prepared to be surprised -- be surprised to be prepared.
visions never are surprising. visions at best are good entertainment.

curious about other thinking
