For instance, earlier this month, Molly Fair of the 26-member Just Seeds Artists Cooperative highlighted
a reflection by David Spataro, an "Occuprinter," about the experience
of skilled printers working with new arrivals at Zuccotti Park:
"What is the best way to demonstrate to people that they
should jump in? To demonstrate that the person printing in front of them
actually just jumped in an hour ago – they were where you are and now
they're printing! Who needs what kinds of push and when? It's simple and
complicated at the same time. I needed Jesse and Josh in the diner
telling me to chill out. That it's fine to start printing with an
incomplete process, because the simplest solutions will get you out
there faster and because other people will help you when you hit a wall.
And for that I owe them, and all the other relentless self-organizers
out there, immensely."
