Comments on: Participants’ questions in the last facilitated session https://past.asc-cybernetics.org/2010/?p=2773 July 30th to August 2nd 2010 (with surrounding events) Mon, 27 Dec 2010 03:03:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: Alpal https://past.asc-cybernetics.org/2010/?p=2773&cpage=1#comment-260 Alpal Mon, 06 Sep 2010 02:06:19 +0000 https://past.asc-cybernetics.org/2010/?p=2773#comment-260 My question, which I read out at the session and then gave the text to who I thought was an appropriate person was: "How may the tenets of cybernetics be invoked to promote close connecting quickly between strangers in public places such as restaurants, hotels and pubs in which all are welcome to participate?" This is very much about bringing cybernetics into the everyday. Which I have been developing for the past year and a half in Hong Kong through an enterprise which I call Conversare. The conference provided the opportunity for me to gather key ideas on this matter from like passioned people. Since being back in Hong Kong I have invented another context for these ideas to be implemented and the Conversare project to be moved further along. See Conversare http://conversare.net I look forward greatly to ongoing connecting with the lively spirits with whom I had the great fortune to converse at the most memorable conference - and others who feel drawn to participate in this experiment in a human dimension of 'spiritual fulfillment.' Do you desire to contribute to bringing cybernetics into the public domain? Go well all Alan Stewart My question, which I read out at the session and then gave the text to who I thought was an appropriate person was:

Do you desire to contribute to bringing cybernetics into the public domain?

Go well all Alan Stewart

It’s a personal reflection and in anyway a critique of the conference which in fact I really appreciated. There was a lot of inter-exchanges in this open discussions we have just experienced, now I need to think about what’s happened these last few days. The one thing I’m sure about is to have been enriched by this new experience. Thank you all for this!
