Tangentially related to the subject of "luminaries": some reflections.
At RoCoCoCamp I learned a new word. Wiki people talk about their world
as a "do-ocracy". Isn't that lovely?
In Open Space, the event is created by what we choose to do. The
"do-ocracy" reveals the true luminaries - by the

Thanks Harrison. Very meaningful learning. Reinforces the gap between intent &
assumptions made by others about the intent & how dialogue or opening up the
intent helps create open space & liberate people.

I was called in to facilitate an Open Space which had been arranged by

lol, I'm pretty brain-dead after a week of relatively open space at
