For example, how might a theatre audience cast a play differently or a park community curate a public art exhibition? *For Cultural Organisations * We *facilitate* a deeper and richer, more open consultation with the communities cultural organisations work for. For example, a city council might need to find out which new artwork should occupy a recently vacated public plinth. Or an arts organisation might need to know which artist on their shortlist should be next summer’s blockbuster. *For All * We *create data commons* that widens the conversation about how art is valued by different communities around the world. <https://furtherfield.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9d227b6380a87c752902c8a55&id=cb9ed7abd5&e=d1746ee6ff> <https://furtherfield.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9d227b6380a87c752902c8a55&id=e72f1f33ab&e=d1746ee6ff> <https://furtherfield.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9d227b6380a87c752902c8a55&id=a8ae6a69e0&e=d1746ee6ff> *A Portfolio of Cultural Communities * Over time we aim to add *thousands of cultural experiences* to the *CultureStake portfolio* in league with other cultural communities. Cultural organisations can add to this with new artist commissions or pick from the portfolio. This will allow artists and arts organisations to explore and test new ideas in new contexts and enable projects to be easily picked up in different locations with different communities. *Vote Weighting For People in Places* Any *voting event* can apply vote weighting in a number of different scenarios. This means for example, that those closest to the issues can have their vote weighted to mean more overall. For instance, local votes might be given more weight in an international selection process for a new public artwork.
