There’s more cringeworthy footage of me in this short interview by David Wilcox.

I didn’t realise my eyes darted around so much. See I’m an introvert at heart. I try to explain how I think Open Space works. I’m not completely convinced by my own explanation here… but the “how it works” is not nearly as important as the fact it does work.

David also has some photos of an Open Space I hosted earlier this week. It was on how education is changed by social software and open sourcing. This was organised by Policy Unplugged and FutureLab.
