Hi,
although this comes dangerously close to an announcement :)
In this booklet and pdf you find my story of the collaborative narrative
- bronacs term - of bricolabs. I hope it can become a starting point for
others to tell their stories. The whole text I hope will fuel debate.
This issue is free available in print and pdf form:
