Franz Nahrada commented on Steve Thompson's blog post Occupy Stanhope
"It takes the electronic media to discover this. A warm thought to Marshall McLuhan up in the Skies, especially for the amazing things he wrote about the extension of our nervous system  in "war and peace in the global village"."

Franz Nahrada commented on Steve Thompson's blog post Occupy Stanhope
"Steve, your creative passion is always full of surprises....although the story sounds familiar to me. We had a similar case as, for the revitalisation of our village spirit, we re-enacted the "Battle of Schwarzlackenau", the first battle…"

June 2010 letter to the Globalvillages Community

This post goes -identically - to the members of the NING Group 'Global Villages Network' and to the members of the yahoogroup 'globalvillages'.



This is going to be a rather lengthy letter with many messages overdue - and therefore it makes sense to start right away with a table of contents:

A clarification (especially concerning our friends in Russia)



I have gained some attention in Russia after writing to the governor of Archangelsk about an opportunity to support sound rural development with the help of a Global Villages Network. This network is supposed to be a network of experts and innovators all around the world that cares about the future of Villages.



I need to make some clarification before going on with this matter. It is very interesting that there was a generally receptive attitude to the existence of such a network,… Continue

Message from Russia.

Recently our friend Gleb Tyurin organized a high level meeting on innovative ways in rural development in the Region of Vologda (between Moscow and Archangelsk). A group of experts and local and federal policy makers awaited dialogue with external participants via videobridge. To my bad surprise, Gleb seemed to be very nervous in the morning when the conference started. We could only connect shortly and… Continue

Hey Franz, I hope for this new aesthetic to emerge from a commitment to a more holistic approach to life. I am not the artist hiding away in the studio. It is important to be active to engage and contribute positively to learn and share as part of a community in whatever way one can. Im busy enough with college at the moment but Im looking forward to learning more about GlobalVillages Network and to contribute too.

All the best

Kev

Thanks for the welcoming. I'll think about the blog post. My thinking has further metabolized since, but maybe blogging about it could be very beneficial. First of all though, gratulation für Dein Engagement!
