Innovation

Inspiration space
•
The space for meaningful experiences that is to say experiences that move us
•
The space should open up to the irrational, emotional and chaotic by communicating a diversion of aesthetic experiences.
•
This can happen through storytelling or other artistic expressions within all kinds of media, cultural forms and genres.
•
The inspiration space should make the user want to move beyond the usual choices and to come back.
•
The library space in itself may also be an experience and work as a stage for events and cultural arrangements.
•
The inspiration space especially supports realisation (cognition)/experience and innovation.

Learning space
•
Space where children, young people and adults can experience and explore the world and thus strengthen their competences and possibilities through free and easy access to information and knowledge
•
Learning is seen as a dialogue oriented process that is based on the users’ own experiences and their wishes to define their own learning needs
•
Often takes place in informal settings which do not have learning as the goal – learning happens through play, music and many other activities
•
Should meet the needs of especially young people for a more experience oriented learning through the development of playful, interactive and social learning methods.
•
Learning is strengthened through the use of homework cafes, study places, open courses and experiment areas.
•
The learning space especially supports realisation (cognition)/experience and empowerment. Knud Schulz september 2014 13

Meeting space
•
An open, public space where citizens as a third space between home and work can meet others who are both as themselves and different from themselves
•
Arenaes, where you can meet other people with different interests and values and encounter opinions that challenge you through discussions and debate, are necessary
•
In the meeting space both non-committal, random encounters can take place through lounge décor with newspapers and café atmosphere as well as more organised meetings
•
This can take place both live and on the Internet in chatgroups, blogs or other social media.
•
The meeting space especially supports empowerment and engagement

Innovation

Performative space
•
Users can interact with others for inspiration to create new creative expressions in the encounter with art and culture
•
Users can get access to tools that support their creative expressions through interactive games and writing-, sound- and video-workshops
•
The users can also get support in their creative expressions through workshops with professional artists, designers, multimedia developers etc.
•
Can act as a platform for communication by publishing and distributing the work and products of the users and by giving access to stages where users can perform and express themselves.
•
The performative space especially supports engagement and innovation.
