Reopen
Unsettle one decision; change it; let it set again.
The approved colour, reopened for one day.
Seen in Pierre Bonnard, A Sea Outing, 1924
Try it on your work
Choose one part of your work you have already signed off. Make it changeable again for a time you fix now, such as an hour, and change it. When the time is up it is fixed again, whatever state it is in. Touch nothing else. Stop at the time.
Take one sentence you settled weeks ago and put it back in pencil. Rewrite it once. Ink it again before you move on. Stop at the one rewrite.
A group picks one decision it made earlier and sets a time for it to be reopened. Only that decision is open, and it closes again at the time set with whatever was agreed. Stop at the time.
How it has been used
Take one finished decision and make it soft again: the approved colour reopened for a day, the fixed running order un-fixed for one rehearsal, the signed-off sentence put back in pencil. Change it. Then let it set. The move forbids leaving it open: a decision that never resets was not reopened, it was abandoned, and forbids touching anything else while it is open.
