Where am I now?

April 24, 2009 By Chris Corrigan Being, Emergence, Facilitation, First Nations, Open Space, Travel, Youth One Comment

I was talking to my daughter tonight on the phone.   I was walking out of The Forks in Winnipeg where I had just eaten a pickerel (that I learned was from Kazakhstan…W.T.F!) and my daughter requested that I get a GPS that could beep and show where I am on this epic trip.   After being on the road for eight days already, with another 12 ahead of me, I don’t even know where I am sometimes. Yesterday I was wrapping up the 2009 Good Food Gathering in San Jose and I took a CalTrain up to SFO, hopped …

Collective live blogging at FAS 2009

April 21, 2009 By Chris Corrigan Uncategorized

The 2009 Kellogg Food and Society Gathering for Good Food began 45 minutes ago here in San Jose.   Two and a half days of   conversation is now underway.   The gathering will feature a nearly full day in Open Space tomorrow and a participatory half day of closing.   Today is the kick off – speakers and presenters and so on. Last year we tried to awaken to social networking spirit when we were in Phoenix, but the hotel wanted $10,000 a day for universal wireless (Sheraton Wild Horse Canyon, in case you wanted to know) and so …

On on the road again and posting will probably be light for the next little while, but here are the links that have caught my eye and fed my curiosity this week: Ton Zylstra on closed systems and the financial collapse

The rhythm of the morning

April 14, 2009 By Chris Corrigan Being 2 Comments

Cross posted from my Bowen Island Journal, my long running blog about the place where I live:   Another beautiful morning here: clear and still.  In the dawn chorus, there are a pair of chickadees nesting across the road from us that are the champion singers.  They are doing their little call which is a two note  descending  tweet-tweet.  One chickadee does it and the other follows on with the same song, but sung a note lower.  Their rhythm is steady, and when they get out of  synch, they stop and start again.   In the meantime, the crows and …

Leading from a platform of reverence

April 13, 2009 By Chris Corrigan CoHo, Collaboration, First Nations, Invitation, Leadership, Philanthropy, Youth 10 Comments

I am helping to design an interesting gathering in June of next year that will be part of a bigger initiative to shift the values conversation around sustainability.  It’s interesting for all kinds of reasons, not the least of which is the conscious invitation of indigenous peoples, social entreprenuers and leaders who are firmly connected to the biggest and most influential systems in our world.  We’re seeing what we can do together. The initiative is called Beyond Sustainability: Cultivating a community of leadership from a platform of reverence.  After an intense and creative weekend of designing, here are some of …
