A Siem Reap workshop I hosted happened because of… twitter.
It went like this:
‘I have an idea.’
‘What’s your idea?’
‘Let’s meet up and talk, first.’ [Thinking: I’ll probably invent something on the spot, if we do]
‘Oh-kay….’
‘…’
‘…’
***
‘Hi.’
‘Hi, so what’s your idea?’
‘A conversation salon. A conversation installation, I like to think of it…’
‘A what? You have to be more specific about that, I think.’
‘…’
‘I mean, what is it?’
‘…’
‘What, though?’
*
‘We did a lot!’
‘…’
‘I see what you mean about how it’s not just a meet up.’
‘Cool. Maybe I’ll keep going with this.’
‘You should.’
‘I will, then.’
