Dear OSLIST,

I wanted to add to Johanna's lovely invitation, because Johanna's
Improbable team is so impressive.  I only heard about their work two years
ago, but they have been hosting open space events and refining their
practice since 2006.

Here is a YouTube interview <https://youtu.be/_HVyAn7qyNo> of
Phelem McDermott and Jeremy Wong about what they learned when they created
their first Devoted & Disgruntled Online two years ago that I think many on
this list will enjoy.

Her team is so thoughtful with every design decision and that's visible
immediately on their registration page
<https://www.devotedanddisgruntled.com/Event/devoted-disgruntled-2022-what-are-we-going-to-do-about-theatre-and-the-performing-arts-19-21-march>
and
even more when they are facilitating.  I keep finding inspiration every
time I experience their work.

Wishing a great morning, afternoon, and evening to all.
Lucas Cioffi
