WalkMesh - call for guides

For WalkMesh on June 15th I am putting out a call for guides.

A guide will have three responsibilities.

Pick a place where WalkMesh should stop - a city park, a public lobby, a great cafe, an interesting company.

Lead us from our previous stop to the new stop (we'll coordinate ahead of time so that the order we stop in makes some sense and no walk is too long without stops)

But most importantly - guide us not just physically but with some questions to discuss, something to look for as we walk, help us see something new (or something old in a new way).

WalkMesh is about the physical walk, the urban hike and exploration.

But it is also intended to be a workshop and conference - a chance to share ideas, get feedback, input, suggestions and have discourse. Discourse in motion, with pens and paper (or small handhelds) not laptops, but still conversations much as we might have at any other conference.

Though I think by being in motion, being outside, and having a shared physical experience, our conversations will be different from a "typical" conference. The city around us can't help but impact what we talk about - as will the spaces we stop in and spend time encountering.

So, if you are interested in join us, rsvp via upcoming, leave comments here, blog about it and invite anyone you want to walk with and spend a day seeing the city while in conversation. Technologists, artists, entrepreneurs - anyone and everyone is welcome.

If you want to be a guide, email me and we're start collaborating on a schedule. I think we'll have at least 5 guides (including myself) but could have a few more depending on where we want to stop.
