Speaking of Group Graphics,
Of course Graphic Recordings themselves can be useful tools -- at the
end of a day recently the facilitator asked participants to put post-it
notes on the mural/chart to indicate what they would like to talk about
more the next day. See http://www.othconsulting.com/usingthemural.jpg
and http://www.othconsulting.com/mural1sticky.jpg
And when the basket was passed to collect post-it notes of participants'
ideas about what their ideal program would be like, I was able to
quickly sort them into four categories and draw them on the mural.

None of this is really Open Space but it is about getting people's
voices heard and "seeing" what people mean during traditional
facilitated events.

I know Pinpoint Facilitation well and often hire pinboards (what some
people call Metaplan boards) from them. They're perfect for when
you're not allowed to post stuff on the walls of the venue. The
company is run by Keith Warren-Price, who's a lovely person. Pinpoint
is the UK distributor of Neuland products.

Happy pinpointing / metaplanning
I use post-it notelets a lot - which I pinched from the principles of
pinpoint - which I was introduced to many years ago by a client.

Dear Raffi,
this was one of the first participatory approaches developed in
Germany
in the context of the 1968 spirit, called "MetaPlan" Method. It is
amazing how widely it has been and is being used in Germany in all
sorts
of organisations from business to labor unions. Its probably the best
known and most widely spread method for structured work with groups.
The municipal planning department of Berlin introduced it to the
public
administration in the early seventies and a bunch of us church
connected
types introduced it in that field. People like Florian Fischer
know the
initiators of this methodology.
In the meantime, a whole industry (Neuland) has been founded on this
methodology providing the pincards, pins, pinwalls etc. that you also
see being used by os-facilitators in this realm. And a big training
industry is still around training facilitators for this approach.
Various large corporations have internal departments for applying this
approach in planning processes.
There are a number of books, one in English describing the method in
detail...and a large number of studies.
Here is a website
> http://www.metaplan.com/
that also gives you the Metaplan businesses in Germany, France and
USA.
If you look at the Learning Curve of Marvin Weisbord it is in the
phase
"Groups solve problems" , facilitated but with the facilitator not
getting involved in the content.
As I look through the internet, I see a vast amount of stuff,
links...have fun.
Greetings from Berlin
