Reimagination Station by Tabitha Borchardt
What does it mean to reimagine part of your private home as a community space? What does it take to imagine, run, work in, let go of, and play in a free in-home coworking space? What are the impacts of doing so on the homeowners, housemates/renters, neighbors, coworkers, neighborhood, city, and region? We are living answers to these questions and offer experience-based hints for others playing with similar ideas. This is also a flash non-fiction book that contains found-object art and community-surfaced stories and ideas. We got the idea for the book during coworking on February 4, 2015. We created the book in four weeks-finished March 5th as hoped. We self-published in March to be timely, useful, and affordable for people we love. Friends and neighbors mentioned in community stories can pick up their free copy of the book at the house during coworking in 2015, starting in April. Feel free to ask me anything about turning our home into community space, about this and other neighborhood reimagination stations we're connected to now, or about the process of creating flash non-fiction and lived-adventure books. Bring your own plan to get me to shut up when you need to go. In person, about subjects I love, I do tend to go on a bit. Lori
