Exclusive to Transition Culture: an Interview with Chris Martenson: Part Two
When we talked before, you mentioned some practical stories about how people in the US and how people in Transition projects were making use of the Crash Course – could you tell us about those?
Certainly, a number of people have used the Crash Course to great effect. It’s available online for free but not everybody watches 3½ hours of material on a computer, and it really wasn’t my intent for people to sit down alone and watch 3½ hours of stuff on the computer. It’s meant to be shared. So we produced it as three separate discs – they come in a single DVD case – and each of those discs is an hour and a half or less, and that was produced so that people would take that and bring it to their communities, maybe run three separate sessions a week.

Exclusive to Transition Culture: An Interview with Chris Martenson: Part One
A while ago, Peter Lipman and myself did an interview with Chris Martenson when he was in Bristol as part of his tour of the UK. We did an extensive and far-ranging interview, which was absolutely fascinating. Unfortunately, the memory card in my recording machine was irreparably damaged shortly thereafter and the interview lost, and so, a couple of weeks ago, we repeated the exercise, this time over the phone. This ‘second-time lucky’ interview covers much of the same ground, and proved to be just as fascinating.

Transition Network Conference 2010 Booklet Now Available
Here’s what I’ve been doing for the last 2 weeks! Everyone who comes to the 2010 Transition Network conference (starting in 8 days) will be given a 108 page booklet containing the programme of events, the complete guide to all the workshops, and the working draft of the ‘seeing Transition as a pattern language’ work I have been doing, and around which the conference, and the second edition of ‘The Transition Handbook’, is based (of which more in coming weeks). You can download the booklet in two parts, the main document here (it is a big file, 8.64MB) and the cover here. For those of you who are coming, here is an opportunity in advance to familiarise yourself with it. For those of you not coming, here’s what you’re missing, there is still time to book. If you find any typos, I don’t want to know, it has gone to the printers!
