On the 12th October 2013 we hosted our first discussion forum "An Opening Question". The idea was to bring people together to BEGIN conversations and to OFFER provocations to one another and the community at large to foster an culture of ONGOING CONVERSATION. Below are the notes from the theme "@TheGlasgowJam". If you would like to join this conversation you can a number of ways: +  Ask people these questions and have a conversation! +  Write to us with your responses or further / new questions to theglasgowjam@gmail.com (and we will post them up here)  +  Begin a conversation thread on our Facebook group  by posting one of these or your own question (please note we reserve the right to remove any that are inappropriate or way off topic of @TGJ)

Join us on Saturday night for a discussion about all things  @TGJ, Improvisation and Accessibility... THIS EVENT IS FREE AND OPEN TO ALL!!! + Why do we pay a fee to take part in @TGJ jams? + When will we get to specifically explore our voices workshop? + What is a jam and how is it different to a class? + What are scores and why are they useful? + Why does @TGJ not have a more diverse attendance?... It is a chance for us all to ask the questions we need to ask and let the community at large to help us to begin work through them. It is a chance for us all to bring our wealth of experience and knowledge to the room to contribute to the discussion.
