Did we 'Do It With Others'?

A few of the Street Trainers (Lottie, Emily & Aileen) will be in London this weekend at Furtherfield taking part in the event titled 'Doing It With Others'. http://www.furtherfield.org/furtherprojects.php. This event invites a range of collaborative practitioners to make presentations and look at the methods they use to 'do it with others'.

I'd like to take this oportunity to think about how we did or did not do it with others during Street Training, Linz. To think about how this project might be important as a collaborative practice and how we might develop it to include others more. I am curious to find out how you, as an onlooker, participant or organiser of Street Training felt about how we were 'doing it with others'.

At any point during the project did you get a feeling of doing it with othersness?

What was it that encouraged that feeling?

At any point did you feel like you worked collaboratively with the project?

Did you at feel like you were involved with the co-production of the project / artwork?

Did you feel like your contribution was a central part of the practice?

I'd like to think about what what Mark Garrett ment by the term Soft Groups and how this might help a playful development of Street Training.
