What's going on in Open Space at MIX?

In this video, Josh Holmes points out some of the sessions being submitted to the Open Space schedule board. He also shows off the cameras we're using to record content in the Open Space area.

If you have an idea for an Open Space session, get over to the Sandbox and get it submitted on the schedule board. Just because you submit the topic, doesn't mean you need to be the expert.  

Also, remember you don't need to submit a session to use the cameras. You can record any impromptu conversation, do a quick interview or a whiteboard session in the chat areas.

Capturing Your Creativity

Posted By: drobbins | Feb 29th @ 5:19 PM
In the Open Space area of the Sandbox, we will be providing plenty of ways for you to capture your creativity and give you an outlet for your ideas. For one, we're going to be lending out video cameras to attendees to do impromptu discussions and interviews in the Sandbox. We'll also have a video camera capturing the sessions going on in the Open Space Theatre. These will be posted back here on the Open Space at MIX blog. This is attendee content, captured at MIX, broadcasted to the world.

Another way we're capturing your creativity is in the whiteboards. Yes, a very low-tech way to get your ideas down in a drawing. We'll have a digital camera ready to take pictures of your whiteboard creations, clean them up with some whiteboard software and then post them to flickr.

Here's an example of a before and after shot of the whiteboard capturing process:

If you have an idea you want to express to the world, or you just finished a great whiteboard diagram in an Open Space at MIX session, then drop by the Open Space at MIX table and borrow a digital camera. We'll do the clean-up work and post the whiteboard to flickr.
