  • Fred: functioning group in a simple way, many commonalities, naturally existing network, fragile, not standard academic format, sustaining and supportive, stimulating

  • Hortense: more in the action & practise, applying techniques, experimentation, sharing sketches

  • Jan; collective thinking, relations to own activities and affinities, like minded groups, finding the "big" questions, engage in other forms of encounters
