• LG creates the pause I need, to get space to pause, from being so committed and busy.
  • I will send concrete ideas to myself on a postcard and see if they still work once i get home.
  • What if we are meant to fuck things up? What if we have all the capacities we need to face the fuck up we are creating? Just being happy did not excite me!
  • LG is a positive rupture - a pause vs the rhythm of productivity. Let go of my critical expectation and prepare an appetite together in unexpected ways. Appetite is consciousness of life.
  • The physical way of being together can never be replaced by hypertext.
  • Holding the space of not knowing and not doing. I see now the endless possibilities that can emerge from not “doing”.
  • Stressing salads and other vegetables looks like a good business idea.
  • Take a seed and plant it somewhere else, grafting old ideas into something else. Propagation elsewhere.
  • Cities are like mountain paradises. In fact the word 'urban' comes from the word 'stone'.
  • What happens when innovation contracts?
  • We need tactics to create obstacles
  • Improvisation is the key skill for the 21st century. Improvising a story is like walking backwards…
  • Lubrication of greenness
  • Where are home brew resilience clubs?
  • Eco-caching
  • Representation of economic reality doesn't reflect the reality of lived experience
  • Things are not going to return to normal. What do we do? What do we do after we stop pretending?
  • Solvantly green
  • Closed eco-systems in space are perhaps an illusion
  • Peer knowledge over grandma
  • We're discovering a new landscape of childhood
  • We need to map out our biases
  • Do we know how infrastructure keeps us alive?
  • What keeps us alive?
  • What are the new writing skills?
  • Let's learn from systems that are designed knowing that everything can fail
  • We need evolving rituals for invoking a luminous green culture
  • Creating alternate realities through future reenactment…
  • Some social networks should remain performative
  • Everything is a residency
  • A hare is a gypsy rabbit, a very individual traveller, immune to myxomatosis
  • Networked organisations are invisible institutions
  • The end of the world as we know it is not the end of the world.
  • Hiding the white cat: responding to reality without scaring the bureaucrats.
  • What is the cultural language of resilience (bones are like bamboo, not stone): irregular, lumpy, liminal
  • What is our reaction to the risk-adverse society?
  • Who are Resilients: smart people who can build shit!
  • We like problems that are obvious, but that no one cares about.
  • Old is what you get if you are resilient.
  • We'll be lucky to get old. How do we stay lucky when we're old?
  • We will live in a better, hotter future. We need to introduce siesta in Sweden.
  • DO we want a big project, or a necklace of pearls?
  • You are blanket weirdos!
  • To die is a beautiful process, not failure. We have lost the ability to decide when to die. We have lost the ability to travel.
