    DIY Days is not a conventional study or program, its a participatory process, an immersive experience, that combines fun, play, storytelling, data and collective intelligence elements to explore topics and radical innovation. They have been around for a while. One beautiful process and documentation they did was around 'The Misfit Economy' and as part of that the 'My sky is Falling' program for youth did an amazing process with young adults from foster program. This is the whole process. page 16 and 17 refer to My sky is falling. I know the creator. DESIGN WITH Not DESIGN For.

    Loving this principles of creative design: Theorems (suggested practices for phenomenal creation): * Create networks of value around your work; build communities and foster a sense of shared responsibility * Design microworlds that your audience can inhabit - spaces in which they can explore, test, and discover * Practice indwelling - share tacit knowledge and awareness, adaptive and embodied practices; our collective diversity is a critical component in learning to build digital communities and nurture the emergence of a networked imagination * Embrace complexity; make things that are robust and resilient, that can adapt to many sets of circumstances - experiences molded to fit different contexts * Create constraints - learning best occurs within a bounded environment, the constraints of which create important tension that move us forward and provides a context for meaning * Learn from field configuring events - the idea that bounded interactions (dimensions: embedded in space, located in time, and connected by networks of relationships) can be temporary arenas for innovation and learning and can exert outsize effect on the fields in which the events are embedded (from local environments to global industries) * Think about creating digital intimacy - seeding emotional experiences or relationships using technology, whether between your work and its audience, or as a mechanism for connecting many people together * Consider the idea of emplotment - making sense of something through a process of contextualization and editing, connecting information in narrative structure to explain not the "what" but the "why" behind your work * Embed intelligence in what you create … make it generative, responsive, and built around systems that are able to adapt and learn Brendan Schlagel

    What got my attention about 'Sanctuary of Hope' is that they work in California with young adults who have reached the emancipation program after foster care. They have shocking stats about California homeless rates of foster youth.

  •  
    "Three years ago, the Board of Supervisors instructed the Los Angeles County Arts Commission to give foster and emancipated youth preference in the arts internship program. While the Arts Commission cannot hold these positions, in subsequent years, they developed a plan to give a head start to foster youth in the application process by working with the Department of Children and Family Services.
