Re: [Ag Meinungsfindungstool] Fwd: [MG] InterMix

["marc" <marc AT merkstduwas.de>]

all information should be provided with the invitation email already.


What we may agree on for the upcoming and further talks is to have the 
following agenda:

09:30 PM     -    Welcome to all attendees by our working group (Daniel, 
Slash, Alex??) incl. short introduction to the International E-Democracy 
Talk series.

09:45 PM    -    Speaker introduces him-/herself and presents 
project/concept/idea. Questions of the audience are allowed for 
understanding only! More deep questions should be gathered on a pirate pad 
to be answered later. Maybe the questions are sorted on the fly by topic, if 
feasible.

10:30 PM    -    Questions and answers: first the questions from the pirate 
pad are answered by the speaker top down. Next open questions from the 
audience are allowed.

11:00 PM    -    End of session (and a short thanks to everyone by our 
working group)


That's a possible agenda to keep the sessions a bit more structured, but 
someone must try to watch it.

What do you think?

Cheers
marc

Hi Alex,

I will be glad to make a presentation on Nov 12.  9:30 PM in Frankfurt works 
out to 12:30 PM here in San Francisco, which is a good time for me.  Please 
let me know the details, how we connect and whatever else I need to know.  I 
found the recordings at http://www.facebook.com/Metagovernment and will try 
to listen.

Copying Flemming Funch, who is the InterMix programmer in case he might want 
to be there as well.

If I understand it, Michael, Vilfredo is more complex than InterMix in that 
it has various phases as a topic is considered and reconsidered.  InterMix 
has been kept simple in the hopes of bringing in large numbers.  We are soon 
to begin a testing phase with one group being the new InterMix Steering 
Committee.  My plan is to follow the direction given by the Steering 
Committee, so the project becomes self-guided.  If you or anyone else 
reading this would like to take part, please send me a separate email with: 
Name, email, gender, age (youth, middle aged, senior) and country of origin.

Welcome Roger,

The mechanism of InterMix (if I understand) reminds me of Vilfredo,
but the possibility of creative literary apps (you mention poetry)
reminds me of recombinant text.  Recombinant text is what brought me
to work in e-democracy in the first place, but my earlier prototypes
were literary apps.
