Interview with Mark Spain, January 2019

Mark Spain

The first session was offered to get us to work in small groups and get to be a bit more connected to each other so we had a conversation with some structured questions.

In this interview Mark Spain describes what happens at an SDN annual workshop. He explains that the participants create the agenda together, after sharing a meal. People can offer to lead sessions but of course there is no obligation to do so.

Sessions might divide people into small groups and be led through some structured 'getting to know you' questions.

A session might outline the story of a community, a project, a history.

Mark describes a session where people were invited to form their bodies into dynamic representations of a system as it changes.

We only begin to touch on the Journey of Mark Spain in this interview. We hope to deliver more, over time.
