SV: OSONOS Hither and Yon (a little on the long side)

Wed Jan 25 12:34:18 PST 2006

I hope the same – that we can do both international and local events – face
to face:-). And I do hope that they will not compete with each other i.e. so
that we don’t prioritize the international OSonOS’s. For me it is SO
important to be able to see, meet and talk to you - whoever comes :-) - and
get a person – a face – a deeper connection behind the name and signature on
the list! That is one important thing I think that makes this community
alive - even though we always seems to discuss whether we are a community or
not on these occasions

And yes – there are not all of us there – but of course – whoever comes
. is
in place, and whatever happens as well. So even if we do take “decisions” –
but – we just take one – no? – Where to go next year – and even there the
law will rule (if you go there I mean)

We do have local OSonOS – by local we decided that is Scandinavia and we
have placed our Scandinavian OSonOS in the beginning of summer – this year
16-17 of June somewhere in Denmark I believe. And that makes a perfect time
to meet and maybe prepare for the international OSonOS later in summer/fall.

So my fear – is that you all guys “over there” in the big continent will be
so content with your own OSonOS that you won’t come to the international
one’s and that I absolutely don’t want to happen! That would be a disaster I
believe

My two cents (ören)!

All the best

I am hoping that we can accommodate both international exchange and local
events that electronically linked internationally.

I saw pictures of Istanbul's snowy weather on the news, Funda, and thought
of you! 

Enjoy - we're all about that wintery snow in Canada :-) although it's been
unseasonably warm here!

Glory :-)

"I plead for keep the flag very 
high for THE ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL OSONOS, and of course to enable as much as

possible other OSONOS´s local and around the globe.

Warmly,
Gabriela"

I can not keep the flag that high for now, but i agree that more exchanges
among cultures

are needed, diversity is more joyful and more enriching and OST is the best
tool for that. 

This is why i believe IAO Istanbul can be a step for that.

Here is a what turkish philosopher (Hilmi Ziya Ulken )says in 1940

Today, humanity doesn't have to make a choice, it has to make a synthesis.

Western civilization, will deny itself as a result of its overdevelopment in
technology and will power (self control) and Eastern Civilizations will  be
ruined as a result of lack of self control ( discipline) and humanity will
end.

Or, these two poles of humanity, movements of tension and expansion; one
ruled by intelligence and self control, the other  governed by sympathy
will realize that they are incomplete and will come together to work to
create the whole human being. And the future will be more Human as  2
civilizations will complete each other by educating , producing whole human
beings.

I guess istanbul is a city where these 2 civilizations get together and the
life

here is created in intersection, by interraction of o them for centuries.

That's why  i would like very much that IAO istanbul can be

an international OST event.

That's why i kindly ask you to support us with your suggestions, ideas,
participation.

Let's open 4 or  5 spaces here all together, take your friends, your family,
your clients

whoever you want with you.

Let's identify 4 or 5 themes which will be attractive and inviting... I have
already started working on them.

I am looking for participation from our neigbours and all over the world.

Let's cross the bridge all together, opening some spaces in such an
interractive

city, interractive country and region.

lots of love from a stormy and snowy istanbul
