Opening Space for a Closing World

[Colin Morley]

Brilliant, I love it.
There was me thinking our wall could be done with the agreement of the owner
- perhaps by buying or asking for the donation of some poster advertising
space.  A flash mob could do Open Space as a form of art work - perhaps even
in an art gallery...
What could the objective be here? - To show passion and
responsibility...concern without blame?  To demonstrate a different way of
public discussion?

Doug -- where were you in the '60s baby? (Don't answer if it is going to
incriminate you.) What you described happened over and over again. Sometimes
it got a little dicey depending on the subject matter and audience... but
mostly it was fun and educational.

Colin--

Your post has been on my mind and in more than one entry in my journal
since I read it. It has sparked my imagination. Thank you.

Your idea about a big marketplace wall in a public place intrigues me.
Could you extend it a little? What might it look like? How could we pull it
off?

For instance: it could be done as a flash mob--one person brings a big
sheet of butcher paper, another the markers, and a whole crowd shows up
(notified by e-mail and cell phones to be there at 6:17 pm and disperse by
6:29) and writes and draws. Could it be pulled off? Probably. And we could
draw in bystanders in a sort of urban theater, invisible theater way.
