ZH-TW'>..I want to ask you a question.<br>
.....When I walk through the groups in an OS, listening here,<u> taking visual
notes</u> there, ...following the energy of honey smell. During the day I
gather lots of images I draw this way, images which I bring together. ... I
show my honey to the group afterwards, many of the others like it to have a <u>visual
overview of the proceedings</u>, .....the unspoken energy that I felt and drew.
So I found out that I create a group memory this way.<br>
......you often talk about 'holding space'. But at <u>African tribes meetings</u>,
at coffee brakes there is nobody holding space, or it is everybody. Self
organized.<br>
Wouldn't some of you like to test a <u>service to the group</u> similar to the
one I am practizing? Holding space in another way?<br>
Just start <u>walking around drawing little images</u>, not as a participant
talking and arguing with the others, but wandering to and fro silently and open
minded? And thus producing something wich no written protocol of the groups can
substitute? As <u>a stepping stone for sustainability</u>, something to come
back to, to show others?<br>
And maybe this way <u>also participants would follow the example and draw a bit</u>,
like in World Cafč meetings using the table cloth for visual notes?<br

ZH-TW'>dear reinhard,<br>
about the question whether there is a space-holder <br>
in the coffe-brake Iīm sure itīs the bar-keeper.<br>
about the question whether there is a spaceholder <br>
in african tribe meetings,I called my friend irene, <br>
she is well experienced in ethnology, lived together <br>
for a lot of while with the tribe of the dinka in sudan.<br>
<br>
yes, she answered, they never meet without someone,<br>
who is called AGAMLONG. <br>
agam is confirming, long is speach/speaking.<br>
in english we my translate that as confirmer or transmitter<br>
he is repeating part by part of the discussion between<br>
different opinions of the participants.<br>
thatīs the way how the the dinka do it <br>
to give space, to give honour, to expand the now, <br>
to appreciate the process, to frame the emergence.<br>
<br>
your way of confirming a discussion by taking little images<br>
may serve in an equivalent manner.<br>
<br>
come to goa, to our next following OSonOS.<br>
show up into the circle, draw your message on a sheet of paper<br>
and offer it on the marketplace<br>
it will be fascinating.<br>
