🌄 An introduction to the second renaissance (this time between worlds) and associated emerging ecosystem - aka liminal web, metamodern, teal, integral, metacrisis.
### Map itself

General things re the map (not positioning)
[x] Title: Second Renaissance Changemaking Ecosystem
[x] Maybe something like: "Ye Olde "
[x] Logo: Life Itself [logotype] and friends
[x] Add a version somewhere? ❌
Stuff to add
Sensemaking island
[x] Add Second Renaissance (?)
[x] Liminial Web / Limicon (in west part of Metamodernism)
[x] Brendan Graham Dempsy / Skymeadow (in Metamodernism)
[x] New Republic of the Heart (in Integral, near Spiritual)
[x] Emergent Commons (in Metacrisis next to Rebel Wisdom)
[x] UTOK (Gregg Henriques) near Vervaeke (in... somewhere in Sensemaking island)
[x] Tyson Yunkaporta ...

[x] Robert Kegan
[x] Lectica, Theo Dawson

Lands of the east
Ethical tech
[x] Add ethical tech island?
[x] Center for Humane Tech (+?? Tristan Harris)
[x] Joe Edelman and his new org
[x] ?? Concepts Open Source, Open Knowledge ..., Wise AI
Alt education
[x] Global Bildung Network (in Alternative Education) Bildung project (* Lene Andersen)
[ ] (?) Springboard - ?Microcolleges - education?
[ ] Commonweal (? or near DDS)
Regen
[x] Doomer Optimism (in Regen, near Ecology)
[x] Joe Brewer ...
Vibes island
[x] Make a bit smaller?
[x] Visa [Visakan Veersamy, Friendly Ambitious Nerds] (in Vibes near TPOT)
[ ] Post-rat island nearby or ... "Postrationalists" could go on Vibe island sticking out toward Rationalism
Intentional communities
[x] Add Praxis Hub
Region notes
[x] Techno-optimism becomes Ethical tech
[ ] Maybe techno-optimism becomes a concept-name right on the edge of it ...
[ ] ?? Add "Mountains of Development" in center of sensemaking island - not region per se (+ ?? Crevasse of "stage theory debates")
[x] Web3 really wants to touch Alt Economics IMHO
Seas, ferries etc
Rufus random ideas ...
Polycrisis sea(s) on the eastern side
Climate crisis
AI Alignment
Inequality crisis
Culture wars ...
Questions / issues
[ ] Turquoise Sound - Dyer Global
[ ] Do we have philanthropy? If we do just sticking in somewhere ... Would def stretch off map ...
Transition Resource Circle (*Alnoor Ladha + ...)
Omidyar (Belonging)
Fetzer??
One Project (on eastern sides)
[ ] Do we add systems thinking land somewhere on east
TheoryU and Peter Senge ...
Systems thinking
[ ] Famous ICs? Findhorn, Tamara (near edge of map)
[ ] Intentional communities and DDS and Alt education are connected ... (intentional communities really want their own land ...). Dev mountains (or around DDS?) or ...
[ ] Example: Bildung project (where does it go ...)
[ ] ? "Psychotherapy" as a sub-region of Personal Healing
[x] Psychedelics should not touch Collective Liberation (so slide it west). I think Sacred and Ritual wants to go up to where Psychedelics is currently. Joanna Macy is close to personal healing, Eisenstein close to Liberation. MAYBE this region itself wants to disappear into the other regions
[ ] List of potential "regional pockets" in a list somewhere (not on map per se?)
Toronto ...
North carolina ...
Stockholm
Bergerac
[ ] Have Gebser - do we add Jeremy Johnson (?) (near Gebser?)
[x] What are thoughts on the LI logo by compass rose? 💬2024-05-07 Rufus: i'd say it gets a bit lost atm. suggest put "by Life Itself and friends" under the title if we can or we put it somewhere more obvious and visible e.g. along the bottom
Rufus notes
Immediate stuff
Logo (Life Itself, Cohere+, EC?) EU logo is essential, Cohere+ logo is optional (if this is to be a Cohere+ deliverable). Co-funded by EU logos are in this folder.
Change name: Map of Paradigmatic Changemakers
Big stuff: Putting island towards the center and using 4 quadrants to organize the map
❓ is this changing Or this is a second version with the island in the center
"Integral Island" as name for central part
Using AQAL 4 quadrants to organize the map
Centre left island is currently Inner-I (so that moves to top left)
Can split center right continent into Outer-I (e.g. open science, open source, techno-solutionism etc) and outer-we (more systems change)
Need an island for the "we" stuff. some of center left island extends down there.
[x] Is the AQAL quadrant idea something to explore for a future version or something for now? ✅2024-05-09 we can use it a bit now
Open questions
[x] Concerned about the "head-y-ness" of the island. want more practice stuff. Not sure though really about how to do that. Integral Island definitely is the closest to having a theory of change (if not a practice of change)
[x] What practical stuff is it felt that is missing from the island? Is this elsewhere on the map already, or new? ✅2024-05-09 no change for now
[x] Adding systems change e.g. theory-u type stuff somewhere.
Catherine notes
1) Can we easily change the colour of the small font (of e.g. Spiral Dynamics and stage theory) so that it is more legible? I find those bits very difficult to read atm and think that would make a worthwhile difference. (Minor point: i think it would also be nice if the sea/waterway names were easier to read e.g. bigger or bolder text or stronger colour contrast)
2) Can you send me a high-res version of the final graphic to put on the ecosystem landing page and also its write-up/publication (which i assume we will post on substack, but for now is in draft form here: https://secondrenaissance.net/publications/map-paradigmatic-changemakers) i think the one currently on the landing page is not the best atm. i cant remember where elisa and/or I got this one from.
3) Hanzi Freinacht is misspelt as Frienacht
