[ELECTRON] City Strolls Update: The big "R" is coming

[Bob Hamilton]

Reshuffle Pearce Institute Govan Sat. Sun. 16-17th June

The idea of the Reshuffle is that the answers and skills to resolve most
of the communities needs, desires and problems, lies within the
community itself. “We only need to ‘reshuffle’ our priorities to learn
where the answers lie”.

The question we are asking this year is. What would you reshuffle given
the chance? Our big "R" is going to be going round the community
engaging people in the questions. Looking at our community
infrastructure. How can we motivate ourselves and others to think more
about taking part in things, finding out what is going on and coming up
with solutions to solving our own problems.

We could also maybe look at the possibilities around us. What do we
already have. How could it be improved on. What skills do we have to
offer and what do we want to learn. How do we make our community and
things in it visible to more people.

After we collect some ideas and things we have a shared interest in we
will look at places where we can gather to talk about these things.
Using our community facilities and institutions, gardens centre's,
libraries and local resources.

We will of course need to make this work interesting, creative,
educational and use a whole variety of media to explore ideas. We will
also need to socialise the work, make it fun if the task is boring. We
will also need to think about how to engage different age groups from
kids to older folk in working together.

But that's for later. First we must identify some issues, trains of
thought, germinating ideas to get us going. We would like to bring the
big R to where you R and get started on discussing a few ideas, make
recordings and film things.
