Thank you for the link to the WOSonOS session. I had not read it, and did not even know it took place :-(

Abrazo

Dearest OS community,
>I have been asked to co-host an Open Space next week where Chilean civil society and NGOs will propose ideas to enrich the political programs for the upcoming elections.
>An unknown number of people could come.  Organizers estimate  around 300-500.
>The venue is big enough.
>The umbrella question is being destiled and refined.
>In the organizing committee there is an argument about the convenience of using chairs.
>Some people feel attached to the almost untouchable sacred geometry of the circle of chairs.
>I personally believe that chairs are not an essential element of OST, while people can self-organize and decide if they prefer to talk standing up, sit on the ground...or even talk while talking.
>That is why I take the courage to ask for help to the collective wisdom present in this OS community.
>What successful stories can you share of opening space without chairs?
>What are the pros and cons of not using chairs in an Open Space?
>In what ways can (un)availability of chairs be a barrier or opportunity to unleash collective wisdom through self organization?
>mountains of Love from the cold foggy Chilean winter.
