Thanks so much, Christy for this gift.

I appreciate very much to have a video of Harrison walking the circle.

In fact, I think that is a very good learning tool for facilitators:
watching other colleagues opening the space.

Do you know about other videos of colleagues opening space (the complete or
parcial stuff)?

Big hug from rainy, pouring, lovely Bilbao, in these days of celebration
for the worldvwide OS community,

> circle of the last day of a different lively gathering, which was called "Connecting
> for Community <http://connecting4community.wordpress.com/>" and took
> place in Cincinnati a few weeks ago.
>
> One of the ways in which that gathering was very lively was that the space
> opened itself! The day before Harrison was scheduled to do it, participants
> lovingly yet vigorously inverted the offered design of the gathering, and
> insisted on getting into conversations around what we cared to talk about
> and take action on. The first two days of the three day gathering were
> scheduled to be a combination of inspiring short talks by (truly) brilliant
> and beloved elders, mixed with small group conversations provoked by what
> we'd just heard. But for many, it wasn't enough of getting to find out who
> else was in the room, and too much on the side of being talked to by elder
> men. So, like grass pushing up through the sidewalk, a lot of life spoke up
> when the whole group convened at the end of the second morning! Although by
> that afternoon, we'd gone back into something like the beginning format.

> Anyway, I went to the gathering in part because I knew that Harrison was
> coming to facilitate the day of Open Space. When he started walking around
> the circle at the appointed time, early on the third morning, it occurred
> to me to use the video recorder on my new phone (which I don't really know
> how to use, as you'll see if you watch the video) - I experienced it as
> sort of a "master class," getting to hear the spiel, and see the gestures
> and body language that I've read the words of many times, as Harrison not
> only facilitated our gathering, but basically taught everyone listening how
> to open space ourselves, "whenever and wherever."

> two of what it looks like to walk that opening circle with more than 25
> years of it in your bones. It is also pretty great to see how people
> leaped up to write their sessions, as soon as he invited us to!
