I've facilictated around 50 gatherings using Open Space Technology.

And therein lies a possible interesting conundrum.

Because I have open space thousands of times. I have also never opened
space quite like the next time it is going to happen. So the number if many
and zero.

I've also opened space improvising around open space technology. And Open
Space Technology has changed around me. Self-organisation has tinkered with
the "recipe" - the one in the guide. But that gets talked about a lot less
on this list and, increasingly, a bunch of "open spacer" are sharing those
stories elsewhere.

There is no such thing as open space technology. There is no guide. There
is no "founder", there are no gatekeepers; yet there are all of these
things.

Tomorrow might just be my first ever Open Space.

warm wishes
