Open Space

New to MIX08 will be an Open Space area where attendees control the MIX conversation. Open Space is a way to bring together groups of people interested in a common topic to have an interactive discussion. In an Open Space session, there may be an expert who is passionate about a topic presenting to an audience or there may be a small group of people discu ssing an idea.

Four principles of Open Space:

  1. Whoever comes are the right people to be there
  2. Whatever happens is the only thing that could have happened
  3. Whenever it starts is the right time
  4. When it's over, it's over

Schedule facilitation and conversation recording will be provided. All you need to do is suggest the topics and participate. Submissions will be accepted onsite in the Sandbox starting Tuesday, March 4th from 4:00p – 8:00p and throughout the event. The schedule will be updated each evening and posted to the MIX website.

Inspiration happens when you least expect it. In the middle of the day, hanging out, staring at the wall, and then it hits you. The idea you've been looking for. The perfect code solution. Just the right color. Why that bounce animation isn't looking quite right. It doesn't take much to inspire us, but it takes knowledge to understand how to take advantage of the inspiration.

Come to MIX and find new ways to do amazing things, and amazing people to do them with.
