Participants: Doug, Björn and Wolfi Notary: Doug Date: 2017-12-30

A meeting about pr, team spirit and celebrations. An opportunity for Björn to let the sparks of his enthusiasm fly.

Re Social Media

• Björns experience with Greenpeace was that they missed the opportunity to get on board with SM early enough.
• One of our target audiences is those yet to be inspired. Many of those, perhaps the majority, aren't on Mastodon, Discourse or Matrix; they're on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
• Producing high quality SM is something we don't do, but could be very helpful for us to achieve our goals.
• Having a high quality film camera, photo camera and microphone are necessary hardware to achieve this.
• Getting skilled with video editing, blog-posting, etc ourselves and/or finding those who already are is also required.

What do I (Doug) want to do

• Develop then deliver progressive organizational material.
• i.e. decision-making, justice systems, currencies, etc
• focus on one, come to conclusions, test, refine, prepare 'best-recommendation' material, do workshops, etc
• next on list:
  • turn constitution into standalone resource
  • 'Deciding cooperatively' essay; acceptance-oriented and controlled score voting
  • delving into Duniter and Circles crypto-universal-dividend systems

Team spirit

• People seem to be overly cautious—why?
• Björn reckons more collective action and congratulations would go a long way; seeing results and feeling good about it.
• The house is the common project and thus the greatest possibility for collective action...
• ... however KH is there to be a platform for other projects: that is the raison d'être. Perhaps the majority of work is and will not be done collectively, however we don't collectively evaluate or congratulate it!
• We could do a monthly event where people present individually/as working groups covering:
  • what project they worked on
  • what they planned to do
  • what they did
  • what they learned
  • where the project is now
  • what they plan to do next
  • (kind of like a Scrum retrospective, review and planning all-in-one)
  • ... and then have some kind of party.
