Dick gave a very short introduction on his vision of the problems at hand.
We seem to be heading in a direction that doesn't involve the institutions directly, or at least not their current role. We are focussing on an experience specific to Gouda communities. This is leading us in a direction in which we don't have the institutions in mind very much. How can the institutions be involved in our project? What is the link between Gouda and the institutions?
What kind of cooperation between the institutions and patchingzone is suitable for the project? What is outside this area?
The three institutions are very open minded about what their future could be. They don't know where they will be at in a few years time. They recognize they might not even exist in their current form. What could their new role be and how would the employees and their expertise fit in in this new role?
We are in a position to ask fundamental questions about the institutions. Why do they exist? What are they supposed to do?
How are the institutions linked together? How can they work together? They want to work together, they could even end up as a single organization.
There is no 18 to 30 age group in Gouda because there is no higher education (the only courses are fundamentalist christian teacher courses, very extreme).
There are some important differences in viewpoints between the institutions. The library is flexible, books in the collection typically last 3 years. The library is also an internet access point.
The archive's primary goals are not about the public. They have the obligation to archive and preserve present and past data.
The museum often lags behind in collecting and preserving objects because it only knows in retrospect what to collect.
We might me able to build on the strengths of these differences.
If you have any important questions for Dick you can email him.
