Urban design, 2013: http://paesaggiourbanoweb.wordpress.com/2013/01/06/architects-challenge-building-ideas-with-lego-bricks-p-bertini/ On the LSP experience with students in architecture

In 2013 together with the University of Ferrara, Italy, we organised a conference called “LSP and architecture’ which combined LSP…[Read more]

Hi Juan,

I worked in the past with architects – both students and practitioners.
With one of them, we wrote an e-book on using LSP in co-housing – it’s free here http://b4bricks.org/media/handbook-for-co-housing/ sadly it’s in Italian, but maybe with Google translate you can read it easily.
If you have problems, please, let me know!

What were…[Read more]

Grazie a te per aver fatto la fatica di tradurlo e metterlo a disposizione.
Risorse come quella che hai messo a disposizione, sono essenziali ed apprezzate :)

Lego le sta provando tutte per rendere Lego ‘femminili’ – dagli orrendi Lego Friends Rosa stucchevole, a varie campagne.

In tutta sincerità’, a costo di essere impopolare, sono contraria a campagne di genere in genere. Lego ad un certo punto ha smesso di fare solo mattoncini (ai miei tempi, pie’ che mattonino e minifig non avevo) e si e’ messa a…[Read more]

Marcos,

others said it well and I totally agree with them: make it relevant and useful.

My only additional suggestion is to clarify that a public demo with many participants is not a workshop and that they will experience something very different.

The challenge for the facilitator, aka you, is to take then into the flow quickly.

In my…[Read more]

Interessante, grazie!
Il facilitatore facilita, e facilitare non è facile.
Bisogna fare i conti con gli obiettivi del gruppo, quelli strategici, il tempo, i partecipanti…
Creare rapport con i partecipanti per portarli al risultato senza che spingere, senza forzare, ma restare sullo sfondo – una specie di vento che indica la direzione, dà la rot…[Read more]

Ottimo lavoro!
Thanks Marko e ben fatto Lorenzo!

I agree with you Marko!

I think that more than marketing and taking care for their business, the community is a learning opportunity – there are more applications, case studies, experiences involving LSP and those who miss the updates, also miss the opportunity to keep up to date with the trends and can miss opportunities.

If language is a…[Read more]

Ciao Fabrizio!

Io non uso mai il riscaldamento con le istruzioni.
In genere mi vangono date 4 ore, quindi devo ridurre e ottimizzare.
In genere uso la torre avanzata, what is this, what is this/promozione, storytelling con il nightmare/dream.

Un altro motivo per cui evito in genere, è la trasporabilità: mi porto solo la mega valigia con l…[Read more]

Per favore NON usate i commenti per rispondere, perché’ i messaggi si perdono e non vengono messi in relazione al topic.
Scrivete nel box REPLY To: cosi creiamo una discussione facile da seguire…

Local communities seem less active than the big forum.
but I think the role of the moderator is to bring any relevant issue or interesting question that emerges into the local communities to the attention of the community at large. (so that non speakers of the other languages don’t have to get a crush course in French/Spanish/Italian and we are…[Read more]

Eli,
I really thought that the role of the moderator was exactly to link local communities to the international one, share the community collective knowledge, and act as a bridge and connector between local and international experiences… What’s the point of the moderator otherwise?…

Eli,
I agree with your points about both concerns Canvas and language related groups.
I think that for the BMC it could be useful if we’d start using tags appropriately.
If participants would also take the time to use Tags, it would facilitate to keep all different applications and uses in the same main forum, but at the same time, it would make…[Read more]
