Hi Amerie,

In this case "whoever shows up are the right people" only applied to those who were invited. We did consider inviting some females but since we were all lodging in one small AIRBNB (with 1/2 the group sleeping on air mattresses, some in the kitchen, etc) alas, it ended up being "all gentleman," by design, this time around.

It ended up being quite the spartan arrangement, 6 guys in one small space. There was one bathroom, and lots of loud snoring- I'm not naming names!

Dear Daniel,

I wholeheartedly like, in fact love the idea that OST is designed to subvert illegitimate authority. That your meeting with Harrison was not orchestrated using the principles of OST is the only reason that I am not taking umbrage at the non-appearance of females amongst your party. I trust that the principles of self-organisation would never have allowed such a tragedy to occur. Yet alas, when other powers take the reigns and so forth. I don't normally comment on such things, sitting in the luxurious position of post-feminism and all that, but seeing as the space has been opened for the conversation to happen...

Kind regards,
Amerie - Ms.


*"...Harrison, I have a question... AND THIS IS IT: *

*Is Open Space Technology SUBVERSIVE to illegitimate authority?"*


And Harrison, without any hesitation, goes: *"(chuckle...) ...Abso-lutely...that's the whole POINT!"*


Wow.

Who likes the idea that OST is designed to subvert illegitimate authority?

Who doesn't?

Is this subversive quality of OST a bug...or a feature?
