Hi I'm in the Middle of emergency calls myself .. but..
what popped into my head was:
IF you use AV to display visuals of sessions etc and signs set the
challenge of making them look as hand drawn or chalk board spontaneous
as possible. Can issues be "written" up in animated ways as they are
proposed in a hand made way! How live can their technology be? I Will
ponder on the real challenges you have and let you know if i have any
ideas.

I've been at this a long time now, but I've run up against a
situation like this. I'm stumped and looking for help.
I;ll be opening space for a gethering of 500+ people. The client is
completely unwilling to set the room in a circle. Instead, we will
have 96 tables with 6 chairs at each table packed into a spacious
but full ball room facing a stage. The walls of this room are
incredible...they appear to be actually stuffed with cotton and
covered in fabric. There is little hope of putting anything on the
walls.
On the plus side we will have lots of AV, so there is a goodly
amount of technology available to play with for agenda setting and
huge screen projection.
I'm worried on a number of levels as you can imagine, but at the
moment I'm trying to put that all aside and figure out, in this
worst case scenario, what is the best thing we could do to Open
Space? Anyone been faced with similar constraints? Help me out
here...
All tips and support I get on this, I'll roll up into a little
document on "what to do when nothing is what you need it to be" and
we can share it out.
OSLIST group mind...activate!
