The presence of good design

January 23, 2007 By Chris Corrigan Art of Harvesting, Art of Hosting, Organization, Travel

Victoria BC I love a space with a brick wall in a space. Tonight at Ferris’ Oyster Bar with a couple of friends for dinner, I kept noticing how that wall lended its presence to the space, as I enjoyed a beautiful and tasty rice bowl of vegetarian potstickers and deep friend tofu. I was noticing all day how details do more than they seem capacble of doing. The stillness permeating the inner harbour as the water stayed flat for a second day in a row, the signs on the busses that say “Sorry…I’m out of service.” Something about that …

Thoughts on harvesting with the right tools

January 19, 2007 By Chris Corrigan Art of Harvesting, Leadership, Uncategorized

Picture a field in which someone has planted wheat. We imagine the harvest from that field to look lkike a farmer using equipment to cut down the wheat, thresh it, and seperate the seeds from the stalks. Now imagine a geologist a biologist and a painter harvesting from the same field. The geologist picks through the rocks and soil gathering data about the land itself. The biologist might collect insects and worms, bits of plants and organic matter. The painter sees the patterns in the landscape and chooses a pallete and a perspective for work of art. They all harvest …

Harvesting collective intellegence

December 14, 2006 By Chris Corrigan Art of Harvesting, CoHo

Here is a post with five good methods for using the web to harvest collective intellegence. These may seem geeky to some but they are excellent source materials, and they have their correlates in the analog world: 1) Be The Hub of A Hard To Recreate Data Source – This is a classic Web 2.0 concept and success here often devolves to being the first entry with an above average implementation. Examples include Wikipedia, eBay, and others which are almost entirely the sum of the content their users contribute. And far from being a market short on remaining space, it’s …

Deep reflections on the art of harvesting

December 9, 2006 By Chris Corrigan Art of Harvesting, Art of Hosting, CoHo, Facilitation, Organization 11 Comments

Monica Nissen, George Por, Ria Baeck and I have been in some conversations about harvesting lately. When Monica and I were together at the Art of Hosting in Colorado last month we had three incredible conversations about harvest. Naturally we harvested from them and I have just spent some time making some deeper meaning of these notes. I have made all of these notes at my flickr site. When you visit these links, view them in order and be sure to read the notes and annotations on the photo page. Most of the photos are pictures of my journal, where …
