Organisers; THANKS + comment


Dear Arpad, Sandor, Judit, Eszter, Gabor, Zsofia, Balazs

Firstly, and most importantly A BIG THANKYOU for making EASA on a ship(s).

You made an unlikely event happen, one which is already becoming a part of EASA legend like EASA on a train, 1997.

Surely only few participants will have and will ever spend two weeks living on a ship in such a [common] space – BANG in the centre of a capital city!

First time participants are rightly inspired by their initial EASA experience (judging by the weblog) while those who attended last year; Bergun in Switzerland were faced with the challenge of inventively using a ships space (after having had only mountains to envelope us!).

I’d like to raise my view that these spatial restraints and the changing weather developed problems, rather than a lack of planning or ability to respond by the organising team. Illustrated by;

  • The back of the ship which interestingly changed use from: quiet place > intimate space > sleeping space > gg space > chill out space > party space > workshop space!

  • While the Info point suffering from rain moved into Szofia, non- 24hour space.

  • and the lack of a large space to enable organisers to initially introduce themselves & then address everyone.

Generally speaking I think the theme of Common Space was experienced intensely in our daily lives while some workshops felt constrained in exploring the theme more fully.

The overall results were great, as seen in the workshops final presentation and the personal relationships made (maybe Dr Love can help with detail here?).

As Adam rightly states, organising EASA events can be a thankless task. Sometimes it seems to be human nature to point out problems / difficulties etc. rather than to congratulate those things which go smoothly.

I think no participant is ever fully aware of the problems & people overcome by the organising team when creating two weeks of 350 peoples lives…. until THEY CHOOSE TO HOST easa THEMSELVES!?!

I look forward to hearing future proposals in Moscow..

As those who know me will know, I could go on, but I’ll leave it there!

“Three cheers.. hip hip, hip hop we don’t stop……:-)
