<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Matilda Leyser held a delightful
session "A Circle of One - Opening Space On Your Own" at 1:30 pm
Thursday May 13 in Berlin at the 2010 World Open Space on Open
Space. It was an innovative and very useful session, where Matilda
demonstrated how she uses Open Space Technology on her own to help
her resolve issues and especially creative scenarios for play
writing using different spaces in a room or a few rooms using
stuffed animals to represent different aspects of her own psyche
or persona. I wish I had written up notes for the event, or
someone had, but there's no evidence of the session other than my
photo of the schedule wall (which is how I know when it
happened!).<br>
<br>
What I remember, and I hope she or someone else corrects me if my
memory is faulty, is that she would begin with the regular opening
with a circle of herself and the stuffed animals or other objects,
then write out the different topic sessions - and then have
different representatives move to the different spaces and she
would move around between them using the law of two feet, and move
the representatives as well. She used it in shorter sessions, a
couple hours, and also all day long. Though I think mostly half a
day sessions.<br>
<br>
Anyone else remember this session and any other highlights of the
ideas that were covered? Anyone else know of any other experiments
like Matilda's?<br>
<br>
Cheers!<br>
