 Learning from others:
   * research showed that the concept coworking space, born in the startup scene isalready close to our ideas
-  * we found a decent place: http://www.tuesdaycoworking.com and we will have a table there from mid March to learn how those work

 Discussion
   * A free place for guests would be very helpful for members of the BRCP or other guest in Berlin (Markus)
-  * If we want to work/think partly like in art, then such people should be included from the beginning (Markus)
+  * If we want to work/think partly like in art to foster creativity ("work" transforms to acts of "creation"), then such people and techniques should be included from the beginning (Markus)
-  * The community feeling of the members of a coworking space should be important from the beginning: do not highlight the success of the individuals but achievements as a collective (Markus)
+  * The community feeling of the members of a coworking space should be important from the beginning: do not highlight the success of the individuals but achievements as a collective; this can counter the "Harry Potter neurosis" of "I am special" brought up by Claudio and induced by the anonymity of city life in order to stick out of the masses, BUT: "You are NOT special!" (Markus)
+  * Do not copy university or traditional research institutes: Everything they do, do it differently! (Markus)
   * To make the place successfull, the location matters a lot (Willi)
-  * One other idea that we might have confused with the so-called "Flow"-state (Book: The Art of Happiness, The 14th Dalai Lama) is to work out ways of how to increase ones mental ability. Some people have a good idea about that, yet it mostly applies to everyone individually. I for example am experiencing my mental heights when I train my short term memory. Some of us also confirmed to have experienced a state of working on an problem for days without sleeping //[Markus: really?]// because they can't stop solving a problem. We would try to gather experiences and personal ideas of how to reach this "Flow"-state in order to make it easier to reach everybodies individual mental height. (Willi)

+  * For creation, working alone or even in isolation might be also favorable, cp. [[https://www.technologyreview.com/s/531911/isaac-asimov-asks-how-do-people-get-new-ideas/|this essay of Isaac Asimov]] that was mentioned recently in a BRCP-medium (Markus)
