Join The Dots
JOIN THE DOTS is the result of the cross-disciplinary collaboration between Designer, Joanna Alpe and Sustainability Strategist, Rebecca Mills.
The Join the Dots installation in Auckland, was part of 'Make Something' exhibition and is an invitation to uncover the relationships New Zealand has to the rest of the world around the issues of sustainability, energy and climate change. These connections act as thought starters, and are intended to be catalyst for further exploration and action, the beginning of a larger collaborative body of work. Rebecca and Joanna have begun this collaboration across disciplines, timezones and seas to create a platform that helps reveal connections between people, their countries and their world.
Over time it is hoped that visitors to Join the Dots will add to the conversation, explore some more, but ultimately find a tangible way to do something about it. Rebecca and Joanna intend on touring the installation, continuing to join the dots and publishing their research, insights and findings as it relates to each new location of installation.
Join the Dots is a non-commercial collaboration for good. We would love to get your thoughts, insights and add them to the mix. Add a comment or send us a message via twitter Rebecca Mills: @ministryofgreen Joanna Alpe: @weloveinc. Check out our blog at jointhedots.co

Thanks for that Seth! Glad you like it and that you see an 'intersect'! with your own workshops you have been facilitating in Wellington. The evolution of the co-creation aspects has been rather interesting and is still evolving as we expand 'join the dots' to a global platform and set of public installations. Be great to meet and hear more about what you too. Have connected on facebook and yip lets meet up when we are sharing the same city for sure!! Keep up the great work, Rebecca

Kia ora Rebecca. Awesome project. I really like how live, interactive and open to cocreative evolution it is. I'd be really interested to see/discuss how you're facilitating, mixing and meshing identity exploration and expression in the exhibition context.
I see a mad intersect with your project and the My Mihi conversation based workshops that I have been facilitating in Wellington. My Mihi conversations engage participants to explore, connect with and express their identities, and more specifically their connections with present, past, people, place and purpose.
It would be great to meet up with you chat with you about things when you're next in Wellington or when I'm next in Auckland. Please connect with me by facebook, email (seth@possibilitiez.org.nz) or cell (0272976555) if/when you're coming to Wellington and have some time for a cuppa.
Cheers,
Seth : )
