Brilliant, I love it. There was me thinking our wall could be done with the agreement of the owner - perhaps by buying or asking for the donation of some poster advertising space. A flash mob could do Open Space as a form of art work - perhaps even in an art gallery... What could the objective be here? - To show passion and responsibility...concern without blame? To demonstrate a different way of public discussion? Colin Morley

(Don't answer if it is going to incriminate you.) What you described happened over and over again. Sometimes it got a little dicey depending on the subject matter and audience... but mostly it was fun and educational.

Germann, Sr. Sent: Friday, April 09, 2004 10:26 AM To: osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu Subject: Opening Space for a Closing World Colin-- Your post has been on my mind and in more than one entry in my journal since I read it. It has sparked my imagination. Thank you. Your idea about a big marketplace wall in a public place intrigues me. Could you extend it a little? What might it look like? How could we pull it off? For instance: it could be done as a flash mob--one person brings a big sheet of butcher paper, another the markers, and a whole crowd shows up (notified by e-mail and cell phones to be there at 6:17 pm and disperse by 6:29) and writes and draws. Could it be pulled off? Probably. And we could draw in bystanders in a sort of urban theater, invisible theater way. :-Doug.
