The first new era meeting for WA Talking Types took place yesterday, Saturday 20 June at the Matilda Bay Cafe. The meeting was attended by six WA type-talkers including four who had attended the training at ECU in November 2008.
Helen Carter opened up with discussions on what the group would want from these meetings and it was agreed that we would like the opportunity to share our experiences and knowledge, hear from practitioners in the field and meet up with like-minded people on a regular basis to talk type.
We then had a lively discussion on how we had planned our journey to the meeting, which ranged from detailed itineraries on whereis.com, to taking the most pleasant route and falling back on previous experiences to guide us to the final destination. It was an insightful discussion and amusing debate on type.
The group agreed to meet the 3rd Thursday evening of the month, then the 3rd Saturday morning of the following month. The next meeting will be:
16 July at 6pm at Unit 6, Level 2, 20 Kings Park Road, Perth and will be looking at four types and how they might react to a given set of circumstances. The panel will be made up of four different types from the group. This will give us an opportunity to look at different reactions, core needs, values and type differences in action.
