* Future session* 
<round one>
<one question>
we will take a look at 2030
This is 19 years into the future
This is about real time
a possible future

If we look 19 years back
it is the year 1992
what were you doing?
where were you

I know where I was: at the University
In my XX year of Germanic Languages
studying in Gent
Using a computer to type assignments, print with a 16 wheel needle printer --> prrrrt prrt

and e-mail someone in pine (ctrl+x :-))
screens were green on black or grey on black

Surfing: netscape?
I did not know what an open licence was - although the gnu public licence was written 8 years earlier in 1984 -> already 8 years of Free software movement


We should  think about the way to 2030
Logically speaking I cannot name what will happen in the next 19 years - and that's a good thing!
< watch out for make-ability of the future, watch out for the big philosophical questions - traps!>
< also, who will have what impact --> unsure>

With our actions today, we are trying to influence the future (actually we do this all the time)
Look at what we did on Tuesday, with Acta
> you have images of the future and this influences your behaviour --> your future
> these are reasons to think about that future

** Opening question one: **
<everyone individually, this will take an hour>
In 2030
in 19 years
-> What do you want to take along
-> What do you want to leave behind

Try to take today's theme into consideration - as much as possible
< show these two questions on the beamer + with a picture of the post-its>
<take pencils + post-its>
I repeat:
In 2030
in 19 years
-> What do you want to take along <yellow post-it>
-> What do you want to leave behind <white post-it>

Two answers per question
Make it realistic
You have 2 minutes to think about this - it's the idea that everyone of the group presents these ideas -> also in two minutes (calculate time this will take with the amount of people present)
<alarm clock>

<pass the alarm clock>

<after everyone of the group has had a say -> we will all stick the post-its in one particular part of Elsenor - to get back to that>
< a choreography>
<keep diversity>
<keep a kind openness>
<different ways of sharing>


** Question two, part one**
<three blocks of 20 minutes, in 4 groups. Use the cahiers with big squares>
< first make groups, mingle the existing groups such as medialab prado, nantes and constant>
What forms of sharing have we lost, or have faded
What kinds of sharing exist

Go back 20 years
Even go back to up to 200 years 
<for example town criers>
SHOULD I PROJECT THESE SUBQUESTIONS? MAYA
Yes good idea

What ways of sharing do you appreciate? Also in history?
What do you like about them?
Why do you like that way of sharing?
Does it still exist?
Are these past good practices reproducable in this era?
<reality check: - Wikipedia exists 10 years, archive.org ?, Facebook (bad example :-p) 6 years...>

You have 20 minutes to think/fantasize about this

** Question two, part two**
Turn this situation around
instead of looking back
we will look forward
If we think about sharing in the past, what aspects of that should be present in the future?
With what kinds of sharing do you want to work?
(met welke vormen van delen wil je bezig zijn?)
< --> keep the reporting part in mind - see further>

** Question two, part three**

Report your answers
Everyone had the same question, so there will be very similar answers
So choose "unique" yet relevant ways of sharing
Choose 6 (6 from the past and 6 from the future? - or 3 - 3)MAYA
Less is more: 3-3
To take our limited time into account - we will use the Boggle technique
If you have  the same answer - raise your hands and say "here here"

-> first we look at your answers with regard to the past
-> group 1, 2, 3, 4 -> group 1, 2, 3, 4 -> group 1, 2, 3, 4 -> ...
< good ways of sharing for the future, which we want to create and keep

HIER PAUZE? MAYA
ok

** Question three **

<paper & pencils>
<timing: 30 minutes for the if/then scenario's, the last 5 minutes they take decisions>

An "if, then" scenario
Something which can evoke strong emotions
From very small to quite large issues
Looking for conditions (in the sense of "if X, then Y..."
It has the effect of a magnifying glass, which we use to let go. Starting with polarities evokes more depth.

-> what issues stimulate free sharing
-> what if copyright and licences were a thing of the past
-> what if our way of working becomes systematically funded (such as the Brasil scenario)
-> what would happen to schools?
-> what would happen to our proprietary collegues?
-> What would happen to hackerspaces?

MAYA: HOEVEEL HIERVAN LEG IK UIT IN PUBLIEK -> DOORSTREEP WAT IK NIET PUBLIEK MOET ZEGGEN :-)
Ik kan uw tekst niet editen:
-> THINK ABOUT THE AREAS THAT stimulate free sharing
-> what if copyright and licences were a thing of the past
-> what if our way of working becomes systematically funded (such as the Brasil scenario)
De volgende als voorbeelden geven als je merkt dat er weinig 'dan' antwoorden komen...
-> what would happen to schools?
-> what would happen to our proprietary collegues?
-> What would happen to hackerspaces?
OOK, OM ZEKER TE ZIJN: DE TOEKOMST WIELEN MAKEN ZE IN HUN GROEPEN?
ja in groepen

You make a future wheel, with 4 axes (see notes)

Start with four "ifs", including zones of impact --> one of your 4 zones can become a new "if"

--> for example: what if there are more hackerspaces

Four "ifs", two positive ones, two negative ones, in four groups
Three concentric circles
The same starting poing can give positive and negative end results

Conclusion during the last five minutes of this group work:
Choose the most loathed and favourite endconclusion
For example, there is no more funding...

You take these back to the beginning - what do you take and what do you leave behind -> directly afterwards we can go to the post-its and look at these beginning statements

Each group has 5 minutes to present their future wheel scenario's
We appoint note takers

10 minutes for a final conclusion


Nice, ben heel benieuwd hoe het zal gaan...
