[OSList] Rough little video of HO walking the circle in the Already Always Open Space

Thu May 16 01:16:08 PDT 2013

There is my video of the late Brian Bainbridge walking the circle at the
Australian OSonOSinOZ from 2002. I have the short clip - about 5 minute4s,
posted here some time ago, but also about 11 hours of footage of the entire
event. Happy to share.

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,

Dear Open Spaceniks,

On the eve of the lush and delightful-sounding Florida WOsonOs, below is the
link to a video I took on my phone of Harrison walking the opening 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." 

Here's the link: https://vimeo.com/65488850
Although it's rough, I think it's still fun to watch at least a moment or
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!
(please note - I've found that the echo-y sound is best understood if you
can listen through earphones ;-))

Sending warm wishes for a rich and deep and surprising time to everyone at
the international WOSonOs, and to the rest of us, too!
love from Seattle, Christy
