Soundtracks often lend themselves well to taking us on a journey, sometimes mystical, sometimes unforgettable, and often (in hindsight) nostalgic.  Well the soundtrack to Reboot has evolved and looking back over the past months this would have to be one of the trackes that kept the fire burning:

...And so with that...we reflect, recap, reform, reshape, rebalance, resize, rethink, re-imagine, refresh, redo, reuse, rekindle, research, remind, refine, restore, and...reboot. In fact any other Re's are just fine by us. As long as we keep enjoying the ride...

Been thinking of a Reboot playlist that was made some time ago and the song that keeps coming up is Angel Dust - Gil Scott-Heron. And as of late the 'The Revolution Will Not Be Televised.' Listening to the lyrics it's hard to believe the words are 31 years old.  He is certainly missed.

SIR KEN ROBINSON...

Used to make these all the time as a kid...it was a bit harder then.

It can't be? Yes it is not too far now until 2012 and plans for Reboot_Camp are underway.  We will be announcing dates and more details next month and in the meantime you can catch us at a session for enterprise week on November 17th. Details here.

Our friends at Consurgo and Bracket are putting on a wonderful event this weekend at the CUBE in East London.  50 diverse and talented creatives will work towards finding actionable solutions to address youth unemployment in the UK. Spaces are limited and you can apply now: here

Something is happening in the air. It is still sunny outside and it's October 14th.  It must be the change that is all about.  As part of Hub Westminster's Changemaking month  - a series of events, talks, meet ups, shake downs, and shake ups are all taking place.

West Lexham is bringing their magic together with Reboot to hold an invigorating discussion on some burning questions on the topics of: fusing business and personal life, aligning your values while helping to better society, and fostering organisational growth.  You can pre-book online here

Other great events will take place on Thursday the 27th and Friday the 28th of October so be sure to get down, to get up.

 

 

We have come back from the new Oxford Hubs charged and buzzing.  The space looks great and the food tastes divine.  We have posted up our work we did with the Student Hubs team - the recommendation for their new accelerator programme can be viewed here.  We have also  put up the in-depth Reboot_Camp report conducted by The Social Innovation Partnership.  A big thank you to the team there for their time, patience, energy, and enthusiasm.  To view their full report click here.

We absolutely love this photograph just taken by our friend Cory Permack.  We are awaiting a series of similar photographs from various cities that bring the old into the new - looking at things with a through a different kind of lens...

There's a whole lot of 'booting' going on, and Reboot is pleased to be leading the kick-off session for Level 2 UnLtd award winners.  The session will focus on social and service design, collective creativity, and business model innovation.
