To illustrate and develop the idea of “Crowd Accelerated Innovation“, I will present partly for entertainment, certainly for fun and inspiration a song in several versions (see next couple of days) that certainly has got the potential to become a Coworking Song. For the gifted songwriters among us, maybe someone likes to offer a “coworking related text” ;-) to sing along with. Today the “series” starts with this unplugged version of “If a song could get me you” by Marit Larsen
Leading up to XMAS and during the holidays we will turn off our TVs ;-) following Noam Chomsky´s good advice (see video below) to have more time to ourselves and to gain fresh insights for the new year. Join us if you like. (Thank you David McConville for sharing and The Juice Media Rap News for producing)
Zack Hirschfeld, an activist in our campaign, pointed me to this very powerful concept of cradle-to-cradle design. Imagine what it is like when “Waste becomes Resource” is not an afterthought but already part of the initial design process!!! How!!! Underneath you find William McDonough´s TED talk in half (for people with little time). The full talk is here.
Following our article of the “Crowd-starting dancer” I like to present what I believe is part 2 to this story: The dancer or the dancing crowd being inspired by another crowd or dancer. Chris Anderson in his TED Talk below makes a very strong case for “Video Driven Innovation”. One dancer being inspired by the next by being able to watch his or her moves in an online video. And this goes on and on as more people share their ideas and “new moves” on video. All it takes are the elements of a “crowd”, the “light” that shines on them and their “desire” to change or innovate. Join our campaign and share your “moves”.
