If Los Angeles is the place where dreams go to die, Venice Beach seems to be the neighborhood where nightmares live forever.

creative problem solving for communities that need it most.
i’ve made a few inroads lately productizing processes with @bigspaceship’s strategy teams. the hope was to create a non-linear toolkit of activities that any of us could mix and match and customize for different sessions with different clients.while work continues on that front, @frogdesign has taken that notion to an entirely new level with their collective action toolkit.it uses simple, human language to describe and teach creative problem solving to communities that desperately need it, but sometimes don’t even have words that translate to “brainstorm.”i think @bigspaceship is often at its most useful when we simply act as a catalyst for our clients to help them solve their own problems, and this is a great example of that spirit coming to life on a much larger scale.via @FastCoExist -

analytics for local government

I returned to college in the Fall, but my mind wasn’t at rest. My family was not any too well fixed; I felt out of place, the coaches were insulting, I was lonely; I left and went down to the South to think things over. Since then, on my own, I have been learning fast, writing a lot, reading good men, and have been slowly making up my mind, seriously & quietly. Either I am loathsome to others, I have decided, or else I shall be a beacon of rich warm light, spreading good and plenty, making things prosper, being a cosmic architect, conquering the world and being respected, myself grinning surreptitiously. Either that, Sirs, or I shall be the most loathsome, useless, and parasitical (on myself) creature in the world. I shall be a denizen of the Underground, or a successful man of the world. There shall be no compromise!!! I mean it.
