About 07/10/19 Salon gathering
We met at the salon and shared food, lunch was nice though it wasn't enough, we had some small conversations about random topics, the atmosphere was weird and discursive because at the same time that all participants were minding their own we still tried to make conversation. The impression was like all the liquids was soaked from the room, drained. Someone proposed to watch a documentary Someone else proposed reading a book And some other idea proposing Botanique for an exhibition Another proposal was about stories.
And then we voted to go with botanique, but it was eliminated because apparently it is closed on Mondays. After another round of voting the collective decide for the documentary. The group padded the stage with all the pillows that was their to collect and layed down for watching the video

Playing Diego game.
We played Double 9 Dominoes. This is a variation on the much more known Double 6 dominoes game.
Dominoes is an important part of cultural life on the islands of the Dutch Caribbean. There's the famous book by the late author Frank Martinus Arion from Curaçao called 'Dubbelspel' (Double Play) which takes a domino game as the narrative device.

List of comments collected during the coordination mentoring sessions:
School of love feeling - too open
Why would I propose something
Eating talking
Needs to be more structured - open the discussion on the monday before
Frustrating
Decision making process = from informal hang out - discussion
More like a proposition of everyone to everyone - why do we have to do all the same thing
Didn’t add to group discourse
Self organised trouble
Group quite’s itself up
As an energy problem - it depends on the energy that is there
Nobody could agree..no capacity of giving
It has to be carried by someone which is not the point
Maybe materials could be collected before ??
Hanging around with people - ever monday is different we take in consideration what is there
Appreciate to open the space to just share even if there is nothing concrete to share - step over the question: what am I doing here? Not every activity as to be efficient - have an aim
Potential in the format - bring something and the rest of the group to attend
How to get to a deep unpacking?
Too relaxed. Not bringing in stuff. Feel a bit a pity. Just nice to be together also important
Not knowing what knowledge is there is inhibiting
Wide spectrum - how to get to a common subject?
Not sure yet what to make of them
What’s going to happen
Not wanting to take too much space
How do we prepare for that? What is the process?
More flue but also necessary to address what appears - a moment of encounter without aim - it gives air
It’s the disposition of the people to share - maybe how to prepare before? How to relate the propositions to what’s in the air? The implications with the works that are present?
