Bank of Ideas was an occupied building of the empty UBS bank offices.

I like the name for a start taking the 'Bank' concept and making into being a 'Bank of Ideas'. I remember hearing that and think WOW a good kind of mentality or good way to turn things in just the name.

Humanises it and works toward better things than banks (which are debt based economies)

If anyone has a picture-like logo for Bank of Ideas, I'd love to be sent it (DM the picture if you want)

ABOUT PICTURE & moderating discussions
--------------------------

Picture attached is interesting for the diagram and theory of discussion and group work technique.... though personally I think you have to make sure everyone knows how and when to use it and pretty pro at it otherwise it becomes a muddle with the pro's and non-pro's... so frustration and points could be just taken with 'another' technique if not used right...

My answer is a pause in between each main point or speaker unless people are good with this toolset picture (which can work)...

Overall making something universally accessible and clarifying as you go along is cool by me. To take points and notes WITH soft/hard moderator alongside who guides and enforces it well (like moves things to the end or deals with it now, calculates the flow and remembers where everyone is in flow).
