The first Open Space conference that I attended had, as participants, visual artists, mask makers, dancers, musicians, yoga practitioners, astrologers, and more than I can remember. Some brought materials, tools, instruction, music. The space included a piano, a platform that could serve as a stage, lots of paper, paint, markers, candles, and a wonderful very small platform on a wooded hillside where one man practiced Tai Chi every morning.
My two favorite memories from this OS are the sound of Tibetan chimes reverberating up the steep, wooded hillsides, and Ethelyn Owen dancing one evening, wearing a mask she had made. The result was that I never expected that Open Space should be limited to verbal expression, and I would love to see this kind of richness in every meeting.
