Designing Ecosphere Economies for Planet of Cities

Designing Ecosphere Economies for Planet of Cities | The Next Edge | Scoop.it

Integral Cities in different locations must adapt differing solutions to the same infrastructure problems. We need to evolve our internal environments and design our external environments in ways that honour the ecosphere that we are inextricably a part of . Only by doing so can both individual and collective human life optimize the amazing diversity our DNA has gifted us with and the deep resilience of the natural ecology Gaia supports us with.

Finding the transcendent interest

In theory, the Internet has vastly increased the potential for human beings to work together. But we think something is missing in the collaborative venues designed by technologists thus far.

I feel the way G+ is progressing it would soon be a great collaborative platform (may be combined with Twitter). Loved G+'s introduction of the new 'community' feature (today). Rest would be on human imagination and connecting various communities to share common resources.

"Quests" as organizing principles

"Quests" as organizing principles | The Next Edge | Scoop.it

Summary: "Instead of organizing people into "functions" we may take a cue from some of the greatest games, and organize around "quests". That may sound very designed, but what it means is ad hoc, problem centric organization in which people are allowed to organize themselves around what they perceive to be meaningful, important problems in need of solving."
