4. Our Collaborative Network System
1. Balance in Natural Network
Balance in Sustainable Natural Networks
EfficiencyResilience
Two key variables
Efficiency: capacity of the system to process.
Resilience: capacity to survive, to adapt, to evolve.
Example of(un)Balance in our Monetary System
Efficiency
Resilience
We only know how to calculatethis parameter.
This makes our systemmonoculture becauseof its low diversity.
Balance in Sustainable Natural Networks
EfficiencyResilience
Efficiency and Resilience are a function of 2 structural variables.
Diversity: how many different animals are around.
Interconnectivity: who can eat what.
Low diversityDry forest
Balance in Sustainable Natural Networks
Low interconnectivityPanda only eats bamboo
High diversityRain forest
High interconnectivitySquirrel eats anything
Balance in Sustainable Natural Networks
Balance in Sustainable Natural Networks
Diversity and Interconnectivity are independent from what is being processed in network.
biomass in an ecosystem
electrons in an electrical circuit
information in immune system
money in an economy
ANY COMPLEX NETWORK CAN BE MEASURED IN THE SAME WAY
2. “Less is more”
“Simpler, sleeker devices - think apps - are less about searching and more about getting”
“The screen comes to them, they don’t have to go to the screen”
“Specialty software designed for single purpose, unlike general purpose browser”
Chris Anderson
“Less is more”
“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need but not every man’s greed”
“Less is more”
“I would prize every invention of Science made for the benefit for all”
Ultra low-cost
Extreme affordability
Inclusive innovation
Disruptive innovation
Gandhian Engineering
GETTING MORE
FOR MORE
FROM LESSMahatma Gandhi
“Less is more”
Jacque Fresco in the society he designed called Sociocyborneering, talks about a centralcomputer that stores all types of human knowledge. The computer imports all kinds of data
and is able to answer any type of question by making connections between gaps of information.
“Less is more”
Just like Google and Wikipedia with Wolfram Alpha has the same direct interface but is a“computational knowledge engine”.
This website puts in practice what Jacques Fresco was talking about in 1974 .
3. Other Collaborative Successful Network
Other Collaborative Networks
The Open Architecture Network is a clearinghouse for designs, but it's also a living network, wherecommunities can connect with designers and donors, and where builders can manage a project
from start to finish, with timelines, commenting tools and forums.
Other Collaborative Networks
The Zeitgeist movement is mainly a information Network. Like a blog, videos, essays,
where the information is continuously updated.
Other Collaborative Networks
Ask Nature is a network that invites scientists, business entrepreneurs, engineers and designers to get togetherand brainstorm about ways of making new ideas based on Nature real.
4. Our Collaborative Network System
Our Collaborative System
- Create a collaboration network for students and faculty of this master.
- Getting creatives informed and involved by helping in developing concepts.
- Scalable from 0 to 1000s - mass collaboration platform
- Reach as far out as possible.
- Social Business is still a very young concept, very few people know about it. Lots of theory.
