Reflection & Reorientation: Warm Data Lab
Event description
You are warmly invited to a Warm Data Lab on Wednesday, 11th June, from 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm, at the Mill Hill Community Hall Bondi Junction. Join us as this community of practice moves to the next phase of engagement. We look to consolidate learnings so far, and set the scene for transition pathway activities to come. In these turbulent times, many of us feel we are standing on unstable ground. Talking together in Warm Data sessions helps us see fresh possibilities for navigating within our changing world together.
“How do we think our way through the messes we’re in when the way we think is part of the mess?”
– Nora Bateson (Originator of Warm Data Labs)
Warm Data has to do with how multiple stories come together, into a density of experience that manifests in a myriad of tones, textures, and scenes that surround our everyday life. Each person has multiple, interacting stories that offer perspectives towards the complexities of life. Warm Data is a chance to look at what’s going on around us, to see the wider arcs of story-ing that we are a part of. It offers a means for us to explore how we could be a part of how these stories continue, grow, end, or transform.
What is a Warm Data Lab?
A Warm Data gathering is like the best after-dinner conversations you have ever had, with people you may have never met. People share their stories and observations about a common question, moving between small groups to explore the day’s topic from different viewpoints such as family, health, economy, and more. Everyone moves whenever and wherever their curiosity takes them, listening to each other and sharing whatever occurs to them. In the last half-hour, we come back together as one group and share what we’ve noticed and any insights we have gained.
These experiences bring to life a “kaleidoscope of conversations”, packed with enriching stories, laughter, and insight. They nourish the soul, transform the way we approach work, life, and our communities, and ultimately, create space for new relationships to flourish. They can even plant and nurture new seeds for community projects to renew and revitalise community life in our Waverley and Sydney Region.
