About this Event
Join us for a Warm Data Lab!
‘How do we think our way through the messes we’re in when the way we think is part of the mess? – Nora Bateson
In a world of complex challenges, we need new ways of thinking and connecting. A Warm Data Lab offers a unique opportunity to explore these complexities through shared stories and diverse perspectives. Engage in a dynamic conversation, move between viewpoints, and discover insights together. In a world of complex challenges, we need new ways of thinking and connecting.
A Warm Data Lab offers a unique opportunity to explore these complexities through shared stories and diverse perspectives. Engage in a dynamic conversation, move between viewpoints, and discover insights together. This Warm Data Lab is organized in cooperation with the International Bateson Institute and Nora Bateson, originator of the Warm Data Lab theory and practice, will be our host for this evening!
No prior knowledge needed – just curiosity and a willingness to learn! Let's explore how our experiences and observations can illuminate the connections between us and the world around us.
As one participant shared:
‘I suddenly glimpsed a new way of seeing as I listened to someone else describing her sense of the complexities we all live in right now.’
Everyone is welcome.
What is a Warm Data Lab?
Warm Data Labs are like an after-dinner conversation that continues into the evening with people you may have never met. Participants share their stories and observations about a common question and move between small groups and inside conversations to explore their perspectives from other viewpoints such as family, health, economy, and others.
Warm Data Labs have been described as a “kaleidoscope of conversation,” which may be packed with enriching stories, laughter, and insight. You can follow your curiosity, hear or share stories, and explore who we can be with one another. They may seed conversations for projects to connect, renew, and revitalize our communities. No preparation is necessary. Bring your curiosity, open mind, open heart, and a friend or three!
As the Warm Data Lab follows a carefully designed process, it is helpful if you can stay from beginning to end. It is perfectly OK if you wish to remain in silence. We will be moving around the room.
