Democracy cannot be reduced to the vote: functioning democracy reqs democratising capital, knowledge… https://t.co/vKf2Zim6nN @indy_johar (http://twitter.com/meedabyte/status/805787311816445952?s=17)

1\ *Democracy sits on the stack of the military and the rule of law. These two conditions need to exist prior to any form of functioning democracy. They are put in service of democracy – but are also independent pillars of democracy formation. We must acknowledge we are not free of the war machine and the destructive power of war or structure of security. In fact many of our democracies are increasingly in a constant state of war focused on preserving and enhancing interests – we must reconcile this reality – our pretty “libertarian” dreams sit on the shoulders of the war machine – in all its forms from economic, military and cyber war. (Let’s not glorify this but we must acknowledge this reality in our politics)

*whoa

2\ *Representative Democracy is just a form of societal decision making architecture, as much as the famed “market” is a model of societal decision making and “learned societies” (the professions) are another model of decisions making architecture — where the primacy of knowledge & practice holds power — in preference to price or collective agreement) – increasingly this historic triad has been disrupted by rise of scalable social networks and their power to influence societal decision making. Together theses societal decision making structures come together to build a complex and balanced interplay of decision making — fusing long term thinking, with distributed long tail thinking and supply demand matching logics.

*and that’s why.. #1..

if we insist on society decision making (ie: consensus).. and public consensus always oppresses someone(s).. then we need force (war..law)

no longer need to rep.. no more rep ping.. violence ing

we have the tech capabilities (io dance ness) to redefine decision making..

[..]

they were charged to *look after the public interest, not our interest, or just our communities interests — but the public interest

perhaps … the idea that anyone has to.. *look after public interest.. rather than trust (aka: 100%) us as one.. trust the dance.. is what’s keeping us from us..

we shouldn’t perpetuate efficiency of a mode/medium/means we no longer need.

B. Startups to System Transition. Increasingly, and simultaneously we are recognizing that tinkering at the edges of our systems. won’t get us there — given the rising scale of the challenge. Shifting well-being in society, or addressing the rise of chronic diseases or incarceration rates, or the inclusive benefits of growth , or educational outcomes — cannot be addressed by minor interventions at the edge of the current model — but require whole scale system wide reform of an order we have not witnessed for nearly 50–70 years. We were once creating the NHS. and a modern public — university system but institutional renewal for society has not materialised out of the social innovation field so far. Yet this needs to be. a time of generational renewal — a time for reimagining our societal infrastructure and human development.

‘a time of generational renewal..’ (while reading postcapitalism)
that’s all the 50 yrs is.. not an econ pattern
econ has nothing to do w real us
in fact… mutating real us

C. The Rise of a complex multi-actor world. As we move to a complex, emergent and unknown world — we increasingly need a new institutional infrastructure which recognises the following: The challenge is not government but distributed governance.

The challenge is not about unlocking or shifting the statistical mean/or median of contribution but moral and ethical responsibility to unleash us all. The challenge is not the public sector but the distributed creation of public good. The challenge is not public or private but interdependence. The challenge is not just disruptive innovation of new products and services but the coordinated activity across our institutional infrastructure. *The challenge for financing is not about risk diversity across sectors and. portfolios but finding synergy within portfolios and places/systems. The challenge is not about getting one man on the moon but about getting. civilisation up in the stars.

great section – until.. financing is assumed..

in d:

Whilst there have been a few attempts of applying this thinking to social infrastructure — it has largely been naive with efforts focusing on the efficiency of resource allocation as opposed to the fundamentals of care.

let’s try this ie: hlb via 2 convos that io dance.. as the day..[aka: not part\ial.. for (blank)’s sake…]..  a nother way

A great text by @indy_johar on post managerial, post industrial and post “jobs for bad robots” #nextera. #futures https://t.co/N6QhiNlIVf (http://twitter.com/Leksis/status/901359139552710656?s=17)

Most of our human economy has since the industrial & managerial revolution functioned to full fill and comply with roles & processes for predefined value and imagination.

The industrial economy made humans “labour”, designed, focused and instrumentalised in the fullfillment of corporate value creation and the imagination of the few.

work ness

This is a future not designed to instrumentalise and passively enslave humans and drive compliance – through debt and wage incentives but to use “Universal Basic Income” to unleash and liberate purpose, care, collaboration and the capacity to dream and disrupt the future.

i don’t think ubi is enough to free us.. i think we have to disengage from any measuring ness..

This is a future which requires us to reimagine “Management” from being a means of control to a means for emancipate, nurture grow care and capacity.

ie: a mech to facil chaos.. rather than to .. organize it..

This is a future we requires us to start by embracing the relatively infinite possibility of humans – as opposed to our limited capacity to make roles and manage process.

moonshots and mission capital

https://provocations.darkmatterlabs.org/moonshots-mission-capital-95f03a2c6de6

One of the real structural challenges we face is the systemic loss of our intentional capacity to imagine futures — real alternative futures — not just tinkering with the world we find ourselves locked in to.

totally agree

This is capital which needs not only a new public funding formula but also a new political imagineerium.

perhaps a new political imagineerium would render public funding irrelevant

How would we unlock & unleash the full capacity of every citizen individually and collectively?

as it could be

These are perhaps the real moonshots of our age, they are not beyond our imagination or even our scientific analysis, but to date, they have been beyond our belief/will to engineer.

per dark matters site – 50 min talk from 2016

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ct7lABwvyp4]

too often democracy defined by the note.. but democracy is much more than the vote

voting ness

the democracy i’m interested in is the power to create society.. not to consume

5 min – 1\ wiki house.. how to design a house that could be iterated/evolved by people.. could be played around w our sketchup.. like open sourced barn raising

how about city sketchup

the architecture is the architecture of the convo.. faciling convo..

let’s just focus on that.. ie: 2 convos.. and trust us.. to take care of everything else..

11 min – design cost

15 min – finding ways to not only measure but finance these oblique inventions..

.. because we can’t seem to let go of money/measure.. enough

17 min – as long as you engage whole families in space.. you don’t get that violence

in the city.. as the day..

20 min – india – more deaths via auto.. drs incentivized by cash they get.. at the end he built the app.. the complex challenges we’re dealing w don’t have single point interventions.. no single app/tech that solves this

unless perhaps it’s focused on a problem deep enough for 7 bn people to resonate w today.. as it could be

23 min – how do we write strategy.. how do we do change.. in a complex world

maybe we don’t write strategy.. we change by letting go..

complexity

25 min – maybe our *theory of change has to be different.. ie: **diff type of contracting.. financing systems .. not products..

*indeed.. **not different enough

26 min – impact birmingham.. focused on city not on hub.. crowdfunded it.. become accountable

crowdfunding

28 min – if you start to map the journey.. the journey of the building is not the plan.. it’s the social organization..  and the problem is.. all our mapping techs are still focused on the plan.. we don’t know how to communicate this stuff properly..

indeed.. 2 convos

how do you get 1000 people involved in the issue.. unless you can pkg the politics.. you can’t drive the change..

perhaps we listen to the change.. and facil that.. rather than trying to gather people around our assumed campfire

28 min – but that’s not enough.. what does legitimacy look like in this sort of model.. how do we build accountability

perhaps.. we can go beyond deeming legitimacy.. and just assume good.. (and assume that we need all of us).. because otherwise.. ie: who decides.. each day.. what’s legit..?

29 min – and then how do we finance this

short bp.. because money less ness matters huge

30 min – how do you contract movements.. i don’t know..

why contract movements..?

31 min – don’t worry about group outcome.. worry about growing group intelligence.. that’s your real long term metric

wow.. i’d rather it be eudaimoniative surplus

what you worry about is every actor becoming smart as a collab ly.. and that talks about building a diff type of environ

so in this future were we move from the i to the we

32 min – ie: redesigned school.. hospital..

we also learned this public private is archaic

systemic ness

33 min – how do you procure this future.. when you can’t predict tomorrow

34 min – maybe best way to drive ed isn’t to change school but to actually get a librarian who loves teaching kids to read.. we know that has massive effects

whoa.. agree w libraries.. but not with a need to teach how to read.. and that’s huge to what you’re seeking..

35 min – to do this you have to invest in building shared language.. and that takes time

not if we trust in idio-jargon.. via a mech to facil that chaos..

36 min – how do you start to build a shared language.. how do you start to sense together

1 yr to be 5.. because ie: not yet scrambled ness.. et al

38 min – diff means of org ing.. diff means of having that convo..

39 min – in a way .. what we’re all designing.. is architecture of large convos..

let’s go ginorm/small.. ie: 2 convos

40 min – unless we actually find a means of change to deal with the complexity we’re in.. i think we’re stuck..

so.. let’s let go.. and try something different..

41 min – if we want drive change.. we’re going to have to build a new org model.. and that requires us to build an architecture of large convos..

42 min – q&a

42 min – intuitively everyone gets this.. but we have a solutional design that doesn’t get this.. ie: audit mechc; contracting structures; way we build brands; marketing; asset and ownership … et al.. don’t get this..  the challenge is that leaders don’t get this

perhaps.. we need to disengage from all this

44 min – it was about every actor becoming conscious of their interdependency.. that was the first leverage of change.. that capacity is the real fundamental.. we think of each other as inferior and not able to get this.. every human being is a phenomenally powerful.. not a capability problem.. a respect problem..

as it could be..  interconnectedness

has to be all of us

(https://twitter.com/indy_johar/status/1143090008234086400?s=03)

The immediate crises of ecological collapse and social inequality are difficult — if not impossible — to approach without addressing the deeper fractures in our public imagination and the social legitimacy of our institutions.

To move forward, we must explore wholly new modes of governance; new paths to legitimacy — because public imagination and legitimacy are foundational tools for building healthy futures for people and planet.

from 32 page pdf here – legitimacities –

[https://mcconnellfoundation.ca/report/legitimacities/]

p 25

ENSURING LEGITIMATE GOVERNANCE THROUGH CITIZEN ASSEMBLIES At a time when the legitimacy of traditional public governance processes is challenged, it is essential to ensure a legitimate governance model for each experiment that goes through a regulatory sandbox. One way of doing so is through citizen assemblies, which aim to reinstall trust in the political process by taking direct ownership of deliberation as the basis for complex decision-making. Rather than reducing the democratic process to a binary decision on a ballot sheet (yes or no, leave or stay), some citizen assemblies push the democratic process further by giving a representative group of people more power to directly inform decision-making.

we can do better than this today.. ie: decision making (waggle dancing et al) as irrelevant.. via curiosity

p 30

An initial aim is to build partnerships that work with five cities across Canada to:

1\ Establish civic regulatory experimentation sandboxes, governed by civic assemblies, and evaluated in multi-endpoint social and ecological outcomes.

we have to let go of assembly ness to decide things first (rather start with 7b daily curiosities).. and of evaluating outcomes (rather trust us in an undisturbed ecosystem)

2\ Support the development of critical digital infrastructure for the commons (civic data pools, digital public registries, blind data trusts, hard infrastructure, etc.) at a city and community scale

let’s try 2 convers as infra

3\ Build a federated fund of $100 million for civic regulatory innovation sandboxes, civic accelerators and critical digital infrastructure.

This is more or less what I have been yapping about on an ongoing basis for the past 20 years.

<< Indy: I think we have structural frames that have been perceived to become natural, which are not natural. They exist as a result of the last 400 years of thinking and have become deeply buried into our society. >>

http://www.whatisemerging.com/profiles/indy-johar

“ARCHITECTS OFTEN GET LOST IN CREATING THE IMAGE, NOT THE CONDITIONS FOR HUMAN DEVELOPMENT.”

Tomas: So dark matter refers to the underlying structures, rules, regulations and assumptions that underpin our world view – things that we usually take for granted and don’t think about. That’s why you call them dark, because they are not immediately visible?

Indy: Exactly, we realised that there was a whole world of things that seem normal and natural – like the idea of property rights – but are actually not natural at all..t

property et al

This means looking right to the core, at the kinds of language we use to create contracts that move away from ideas of control and ownership.

why contracts..? if seeking core..?

Indy: I think we have structural frames that have been perceived to become natural, which are not natural. They exist as a result of the last 400 years of thinking and have become deeply buried into our society. They are like pieces of code that are the source materials for the world around us.

whales in sea world

We’ve created a world where our environments have been designed to drive consumption, or exacerbate bad behaviours in ourselves. We’ve created environments which are massively light and noise polluting and therefore fundamentally detrimental to our human development. Architects often get lost in creating the image, not the conditions for human development. t

conditions that allow us to listen deeper than rna .. than dna.. making the genotype/phenotype gap et al.. irrelevant

spaces that focus on ie: curiosity over decision making

Indy: I have always found it fascinating how most contracts are focused on limiting harm. Actually the infrastructure for unleashing human capacity is very limited. We have a massive cognitive bias to loss aversion, and we’ve constructed society along the lines of loss aversion and control, as opposed to ennobling and unleashing.

How we organise has always been interwoven with how we perceive ourselves. Our prevalent models of organisation are heavily designed with a bias to self-reinforcing ideas of humans as separate and self-interested individuals and our systems designed with an emphasis to stratify and control. When we apply these principles to the purpose of creating ‘public good’ it leads to ‘good’ that is entangled with deep harm.

thurman interconnectedness lawwhen you understand interconnectedness it makes you more afraid of hating than of dying

what we need is for our org/infra to be a means to undo our hierarchical listening to self/others/nature.. so that we grok legit perceptions of selves.. (aka: not whales.. and not in sea world)
