Holotopia
A different way to see
Having proposed knowledge federation as an approach to knowledge that answers to the contemporary needs of people and society – or metaphorically, as a 'pair of lightbulbs' that can replace our outdated 'candles' – we are now developing the Holotopia prototype as a proof of concept application.
So imagine that you have in your hand a strong electrical searchlight, which you may point at any issue or theme in order to see it in a new light, see it as a whole, see its correct shape and proportions. What issue would you point it to? What new insight would you expect to reach as result?
Scope
Owning the way to see
We say "no thanks" to yet another report about Donald Trump's latest mischief. The knowledge federation begins with a conscious and creative choice of the theme; and of the way in which we look at that theme. That's what this keyword, scope, stands for.
The scope of Holotopia is the nature of our contemporary condition as a whole. We want to grasp what's going on in our time – in a way that empowers us to set our priorities and to act in accordance with the situation we are in.
The scope of Holotopia
<p>The task to federate whatever data might be relevant for making us functionally informed might seem daunting. But we use knowledge federation to make that work, and its results, extremely simple: We identify five insights</em in five pivotal areas of interest, which are alone sufficient to show us our situation in a completely new light. </p> <p> But seeing and comprehending our situation is not the Holotopia's final end, but only its beginning. An insight is not federated before it has become part of our collective awareness. Before it's reflected in the way we act. And most importantly – before it is reflected in the social-systemic structures that organize us in action. Which socialize us to see and act in a certain way. </p> <p> It is that change that is the Holotopia's final end.</p> <p>So you may now comprehend Holotopia as a co-creative strategy game – whose goal is to foster new awareness, new values, and a new way to be. Artists, scientists, collective intelligence activists, educational innovators... collaborate to evolve further and to change our collective mind. </p></div> </div>
