The flow provides an overview of the event as a whole, as well as the connections between different elements (such as contents, formats, materials, spaces and the participants). The connections between the elements happen in space and in time, so the flow has spatial and temporal aspects. | The flow provides an overview of the event as a whole, as well as the connections between different elements (such as contents, formats, materials, spaces and the participants).

Before starting to design the flow it's important that you agree on the purpose of CSAW. The reason for which you're doing the event – the purpose – should be as clear as possible, because all aspects of the design should be in service of fulfilling this purpose. | Before starting to design the flow it's important that you agree on the purpose of CSAW.
