Capture. Read. Return.
The flow is branching, not linear. Nothing is public by default. Nothing is decided by an algorithm.
- Step 01Convene
A cohort of up to ~20 is invited around one place and one question.
- Step 02Consent
Consent, safety and visibility are set with the cohort before anything begins.
- Step 03Capture
People notice. What they notice becomes a Capture: text, photo, audio, video, question, link, group work, or material.
- Step 04Compass
Facilitators orient the cohort in the 4×5 Matrix. A coordinate is a place to stand, not a conclusion.
- Step 05Nested Reading
The coordinate is opened into practice inside the session.
- Step 06Capsule
Signals that have been held and read become Capsules.
- Step 07Field Reading
A governed reading of patterns across the cohort (n≥5). Returned to the cohort and partner.
- Step 08Return
Participant return, partner return, a next-action note. Optional: approved Place Stories.
