"Designing the Global-Brain-Application Seed" -- Designing a collective future for our earth and humanity using web-technologies
Duration: 2 weeks
Topic(s): 2
Overview:
Human being the last decades became very much interconnected than ever. Not only between us individually but also between us, the other creations, our living planet and universe. It is becoming clearer that we are one people, living on one planet, with one common destiny. The internet offers activists sites to join conversation, groups and organisation co-creating our global future. The fact that we stumble with the same thoughts, ideas and efforts we have from one web-site to another makes us more aware, that collectively, informally, collaboratively we have to be very much more efficient in our efforts towards the emerging global civilization. This new experience in our history faces new challenges and requires new approaches. We are becoming more aware that so many portals, platforms, information, ideas, conversations, should run in ONE Super-"Application" which I call it here the "Global Brain Application"¯ (GBA). The best-in-class tool for the fusion of our informal intelligence and possibilities, the multiplexer of our knowledge, for building an effective global movement. In this conversation we will discuss the vision of having ONE global-brain-application, how it might look and the possibilities toward the first collaborative steps to design a "seed" for this application.
Topic 1: Brainstorming: What do we already know about this approach? (week 1)
Human being the last decades became very much interconnected than ever.
Not only between us individually but also between us, the other creations, our
living planet and universe. It is becoming clearer that we are one people,
living on one planet, with one common destiny.
The internet offers activists sites to join conversation, groups and
organisation co-creating our global future. The fact that we stumble with the
same thoughts, ideas and efforts we have from one web-site to another makes us
more aware, that collectively, informally, collaboratively we have to be very
much more efficient in our efforts towards the emerging global civilization.
This new experience in our history faces new challenges and requires new
approaches.
We are becoming more aware that so
many portals, platforms, information, ideas, conversations, should run in ONE
Super-"Application" which I call it here the "Global Brain
Application” (GBA). The best-in-class tool for the fusion of our informal
intelligence and possibilities, the multiplexer of our knowledge, for building
an effective global movement.
In this conversation we will discuss
the vision of having ONE global-brain-application, how it might look and the
possibilities toward the first collaborative steps to design a "seed"
for this application.
Topic 1:
- Introduce
yourself to the other participants and share what draws you to this
conversation.
- What would be
the informal open-source GBA for you?
- Who has already started
such an initiative? Which methodologies are used therefore (Example: integral
spirals dynamics)?
- What further
steps are needed to develop the idea of having ONE global platform for
global emergence?

Topic 2: Pre-Planing: Summerize Topic 1 and set-up concrete action plan (week 2) Summerize Topic 1, define objectives and set-up concrete action plan
