Curating Bristol’s Gurteen Knowledge Cafes
April 30, 2008 – 6:09 pm
I am now ‘curating’ Bristol’s Gurteen Knowledge Cafes. Erica Hurley has agreed to co-curate with me which is cool.
This is good news as I:
- think that the regional k-cafes are well worth keeping alive as they have some great people involved and some great conversations
- enjoy the format: have participated in many k-cafes, and include them in events I design where suitable
- have got a bit of a thing going for physical events at the moment - find myself enjoying designing and facilitating events and group interventions more and more
- want to draw some of my attention back to the ‘knowledge’ side of organisations
The next gathering will be on Thursday 26 June in Bristol. I am putting together an announcement mail list and event booking widget and will do another post when it’s all sorted. Until then, you can sign up to be on the list by subscribing on David’s website
It’s a voluntary role (with a lofty title of ‘Gurteen Knowledge Community regional director, Bristol - England’), and Debbie Lawley has been doing great stuff with it, but she has passed the mantle on, so I hope I can take it onboard with aplomb and keep the spirit going.
Good work all!
