Extras: what about lifeitself.org/ecosystem

New text for lifeitself.org/ecosystem

• What did we use to have there?
• Do we just want to redirect it?

Why do we want it at all?

What's the KISS approach?

Where do we write about our plans? the overall project? rather than the outputs ...

[catherinet1]

NTS: idea: one "report" page which documents the background, motivation, why map etc., similar in format to 2020 page, and links out to mapping site itself, and one "map site" which is similar in format to current ecosystem map site, for people just interested in the ecosystem itself and less in the research background behind it

[rufuspollock]

OK, first, great job Catherine on synthesizing all the material 👏👏 I'm basing my consolidated report largely on the synthesis you've done. Also finding lots of related material is going to be really useful as i think we can link that out in an appendix too.

Clarifying the misunderstanding about having one output (vs report and landing page)

I think there was a bit of an initial misunderstanding: what i'd thought we were doing was a) relocating (quick) b) updating the 2021 landing page to be more of a report.

Here's the original rough task list (to remind myself):

- [ ] Change the title to be specific e.g. "PIP for Social Change: Mapping an Emerging Ecosystem of Paradigmatic, Integrative, and Pragmatic Changemakers"
- [ ] Move the names that are currently in the carousel --> 👍 Mention them in intro? e.g. "We sense that a new ecosystem, or ecosystem of ecosystems, is emerging. It goes by many names, e.g. Metamodern, Polycrisis, Metacrisis, Great Transition, Liminal ... etc."  
- [ ] Change PIE to PIP
- [ ] Frame the visualizations better ...
- [ ] Not clear what Discover and Explore buttons mean -- change to e.g. "Read more" and "Explore the organisations"
- [ ] ? move directory to a separate page??
- [ ] Integrate /about/ page as introduction / motivation
- [ ] Have better headings
- [ ] Published date in the hero section (with maybe updates info e.g. published Oct 2nd 2021 - updated Feb 2022)
- [ ] Correct authors to just be Life Itself ...
- [ ] Add Interviews section - blurb and links to published interviews
- [ ] Move profiles and fix links in profiles

Where I'm at.

• First, because it was difficult for me to understand where we were at: I consolidated the 3 main content sources (current landing page, new report page, about page) into one google doc here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Q5GOjaBJB1WHPojZnvH3FApAYsKb6AYrnvOk2c6ABr0/edit
  • I then attempted to deduplicate / understand what was new / different etc
• I also thought quite a bit about the actual structure of the report and if there was anything we want to add (e.g. a synthesis of key points in an exec summary). Notes on this are in the gdoc

⏭️ Let's review the gdoc together, decide on what is to be done and then we can implement.

Notes on approach, if this were me:

• Created a draft report in gdocs (easier to review / edit and can easily reconvert with pandoc later)
• Copied raw content that i was synthesizing into "Inbox" section
• Got a new essay outline including hints on where material would come from. Especially flag if any significant stuff to add or any major issues/questions
• BONUS: Noted somehow what material was used / discarded (just so i could track)
  • See my use of emojis e.g. 🚚 for moved, ❌ or 🗑️ for discarded, 🔁 for duplicate etc
• Check quickly (if possible) at this stage how things are looking and resolve any questions
• Implement

• Updated hero section of PIP landing page
• Updated body of PIP landing page for clarity and readability (e.g. added summary at top), added some blurb to each viz, updated key features section (basically pulled relevant text from full written report)

Questions

• What to do with PIP vis page https://secondrenaissance.net/vis (which is currently broken fyi)?
  • Hyp: a) add a short blurb to each vis on the PIP landing page, b) link to full report for more detail, and c) delete this page
    • 2024-06-04 Did a) and b) -- see https://secondrenaissance.net/ecosystem/pip -- have not (yet) done c)

[catherinet1]

@rufuspollock PIP report and landing page update is now complete, see https://secondrenaissance.net/ecosystem/pip and see previous comment for more detailed update.

Only thing remaining is redirects (see Tasks tasklist above)

[rufuspollock]

FIXED. Did the redirects.
