[OSList] Looking for "butterfly" ideas

Thu Sep 10 17:39:59 PDT 2020

Mark Sheffield and I simply make 1 link per room, people click that link to go to the next room. You need 10 accounts if you have 10 rooms since Zoom accounts only allow 1 meeting at a time.
Everyone has Zoom accounts and if they are attending YOUR event they will not be using their account then, so you can borrow it from then.

Worst case, you spend $14.95 X  10 for 10 "rooms", 1 per account.

The open source doc here explains that approach: full-on Open Space under Zoom: with ability to move about....

In larger Zoom OST sessions where you can’t make everyone a co-host, we have asked people to add the room number they want to go to at the front of their Zoom name. We have one or two “Zoom pilots” who scan the participant list and make breakout room assignments once the marketplace opens. Then to move between rooms you just have to come back to the main room and ask one of the pilots to switch you. It seems to work pretty well.

Another alternative I learned (probably from the great DC Liberating Structures<https://bit.ly/2X6ctaG> group) is in Zoom making everyone a Host.

This gives everyone the ability to move between breakouts. It is a little tedious because the original Host must go through the Participant list and one-by-one make each person a Host, but if your partner is Opening Circle, then you can do this in the background. When sessions are posted, folks then select the appropriate breakout to join (just like a Host). To use their two feet, they leave the breakout room, end up in the main room, then butterfly or bumble bee. The caveat here is to not select “Leave Meeting” because you’ll be taken out of Zoom have to click back in; just click “Leave Room”. I’ve only tried it this one time and it seemed to work well. First-time Zoom users would need some instructions.

Best,
~Eric

Mark Sheffield and I have published an open-sourced Checklist and Guide for online OST.

Here it is: scroll to the bottom....
https://openleadershipnetwork.com/onprogress/

In the online OST design, we use plain old Zoom accounts, one per room and define Lobby, Hallway, Lounge, and people use these to hang around and chat with others who congregate there.

We also stay put in the big room after the Open to handle questions and welcome strays...

....and people come and go to/from there and often hang for a while, sometimes people have beverages with them.

I hope this helps you out a little bit.

Regards,
-Daniel

Play4Agile Global, a collaboration of three Play4Agile OS Conferences that used to be held in person, is holding our first online conference Oct 3-4. While a number of us have organized and participated in online Open Space conferences we were wondering about what ideas people have or have tried to replicate the butterfly experience. Our organizers haven't come up with too many ideas that creates the same experience.

We tried https://theonline.town/ which is pretty cool but the technology is still a bit young and people were challenged getting in and connected. (It has loads of potential).

What else have people tried?

Thanks!

Glenn
