This is

a campaign to agree 
a new vocabulary
for informing
a new conversation
for agreeing a new vocabulary
for coordinating a new capacity
to demonstrate a new custom
for promoting a new currency
of new rules
for holding institutions
of agency and authority,
for making social choices for society,
accountable for
authenticity
and integrity
in their individual exercises
of their institutional authority/power
true to their institutional agency/purpose/mission,
according to our shared, common sense,
as prudent people
who care enough
to take the time
to make the effort
to make ourselves
familiar with such matters,
of institutional authenticity,
integrity,
power, and
purpose,
through Festivals of Citizens Deliberation,
in three movements
  • The Run-Up: text for context, and art as social objects for igniting a desire to inquire: framing the tensions between and among competing choices, and their consequences
  • The Main Event: participation through sortition in citizens trials and mini-publics
  • The Aftermath: popularizing through the Politics of Bargaining, Legislating and Litigating

Join the journey,to perfect the right new rules, and make them popular.
