Aloha Friend of Art and Technology for Humanity,
I haven't been using this listserve for quite a while. Things are moving fast again so I thought I would keep you informed of the dramatic happenings for social change in our world and the evolution of my ideas, projects and services.
I want to share a personal experience. In 1997 I was invited to speak in Graz Austria as a result of Creativity Cafe being discovered on the Net. While in Europe, Ed Elkin, my traveling companion/consulting synergist and I were invited to visist ZEGG. I had been in touch with the ZEGG director for many months prior to our trip. I was anxious to meet a new cyber friend in person and I will share if you like just how delightful our meeting was. There are photos of our voyage posted on the net too.
Cheers!

Dear friends of ZEGG,
"Synergy - Approaching Collective Wisdom " is the headline for the summer camp
in ZEGG from July 26 - August 5, 2007. Connection relates individuals into
something new, unpredictable, magical!
We warmly welcome all interested guests – new or well-known all the same, to
join a ten-day community experience with
Live Music
Morning- and Evening Meditation
Rain, Sun, Wind
Children`s Camp
Tent Village Life
Performance, Dance
And Joy of Living
ZEGG Summercamp
is a big community event for those who want to integrate personal growth and
an attentive engagement in what concerns the planet. This year the focus of
the camp is “Synergy – Approaching Collective Wisdom”.
In some moments while cooperating in a group of individuals, a magic change
happens. Everyone is aware of it; no-one can explain it in terms of every-day
logic. The people involved stop fighting for their breathing space. Instead a
kind of collective consciousness arises. Its creativity and intelligence is
far more complex than that of the sum of all individuals.
The camp is a field to explore and experience this phenomenon.
You find more detailed information below in this e-mail and actual information
during the next months at www.zegg.de.
We look forward seeing you
The Summercamp Team
