Ruben:

part 1: work on this part of myself that has the desire to control things. Alter this conversation. 

part 2: not to bring the pattern of 'do things, do things, do things' to my life.  Operate instead from presence. 

 

Pritha: narrowing accomplishments down to bite-size goals.  

measuring 'failure' lens in measuring accomplishments. 

 

Ben: reflecting on value that's been created for him subjectively, and making it visible in a journal entry. 

creating a story map for the lab, to be able to effectively communicate this project in his storytelling. 

creating some kind of group game experience that I can record on camera. 

practice making clearer requests for help in the work that he's doing. 

 

Kyle: make things which make sense. but are eccentric, radical, weird, and uncomfortable.  

Learn what spaces gameshifting can channel, and hold. When is it useful? 

Create designs and models. 

 

Connor: Communicating with the people that I'm hoping will be 'compass guides' for the CultureCraft project.

Make visible the recontextualization of my identity, upgrading my expressive capacity. Be present to that to be in my body intention day-by-day. 

Have conversations on the commons, harvest questions that people have about the commons, post them online for a starting point for the Massive Open Online Course on the commons that I'm helping design with the School of Commoning.

Write one 'public facing' blog post

Prep a culture-hacking guilt and embarrassment session.
