  1. 1. If funded, what will Aporia Green actually do from Dec-2007 to Mar-2009?

  2. aporia green has been emerging as a platform for community (re)generation

    this platform is becoming operational at three levels of community engagement:

    i. social
    ii. technological
    iii. educational

    for example, aporia green has been positioned as a platform for:

    · hosting a next series of social events sponsored by related stakeholder communities
    · cross-pollinating aporia driven developments in support of emerge(nt) community platform
    · programming open courses designed to facilitate expertise sharing amongst membership

    aporia green is an ongoing effort to (re)generate the social, technological, and educational infrastructure necessary for sustaining next generation environments arising out of emerge(nt) community membership and derivative endeavours

  3. 2. What software or documents will the project produce that will benefit the wider [...] community?

  4. community-enhanced “forge” generating both open source software and a body of ethnographic material and analyses related to expertise-sharing amongst innovators, e.g. aporia eDovecot

    c.f. Jeffrey (2003) and Livingston (2006) for supporting literature

  5. 3. Who, in that wider community, would be likely to make use of the Aporia Green
    deliverables?

  6. emerge(nt) support projects, [...]-funded projects and programmes, related UK funding bodies, European funding councils, international third sector

  7. 4. How many people are needed in the Aporia Green project and what roles will they fill?

  8. roles and structure TBC over next fortnight, i.e. innovating rhizome vs. standard scaffolding

  9. 5. If you see Aporia Green continuing beyond Mar-2009, in what fashion and how might you ensure this?

  10. legal incorporation as a form of aporia social enterprise, e.g. community-interest company

  11. mm

  12. not your usual cherry, but low hanging fruit nonetheless

  13. bit of a delicacy – especially yummy when (un)baked in a pie ;-)

  14. (un)baked = (un)cooked
    (un)cooked = (un)cookable
    (un)cookable = (un)fundable
    (un)fundable = (un)funded
    (un)funded = (un)fettered
    (un)fettered = (un)baked

  15. (un)cookable = (un)fundable?

  16. in light of [...] current operating environment, yes - albeit, once in a blue moon, even an (un)funded project’s tag cloud can have a silver-lining - and (t)herein lies our next lunar dawn

  17. [...] low hanging fruit (in all due modesty) ‹ › [...]
