OST with less than 25 words

[Eric Lilius]

Mikk,
To make it a little more in keeping with English syntax I would add "a" in front 
of "surprisingly". Do you mean "binding" rather than "bounding"?
Thus,
Open Space Technology is a surprisingly simple high performance system,
binding passion with responsibility.

I would be inclined to substitute  "an elegantly" for "surprisingly".
