<p>As for me the obvious is the time we live in with smartphones & Internet that link meanings & hearts of great mass beyond immediate venue.</p>
<p>Open Space pushes participants to expand their NOW in time & space by taking them unusual domains of consciousness.</p>
<p>Smartphones + Internet are doing the role of triggering massive transformation by way of self-organiztion.</p>

<br>what we would normally call invitation list, or logistics, food plan, documentation... those things can be found in the scenes and stories of this time in the square, but it seems to me they have to be sort of sifted out, almost consructed, after the fact. but invitation and importance must have been conscious and visible to everyone, even in midst the whole thing.<br>
<br>invitation is personal, importance cultural. we can't make something important, it's more of a common recognition, it can only be watched for, sensed and articulated. and invitation is only something we can do from inside of our own prior commitment. nobody was saying "hey, you should all go to the square and then i'll see you next week and you can tell me how it went, or report back to me in the staff meeting next week." the only invitation that matters is "i'm going, because it matters. come with me, we need you." <br>
