Open Community Architecture

In a democracy, we are each others' infrastructure. Our geo-social fabric takes inspiration from:

  • Dialogue between public and private community spaces

     http://theopensourceway.org/wiki/Communities_of_practice

  • Good Faith Collaboration = people who share a passion to learn, by interacting regularly, and conscientiously

     http://reagle.org/joseph/2010/gfc/
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Reagle/Berkman_Reading_Group

  • Creativity = allowing yourself to make mistakes
  • Art = knowing which ones to keep
  • 1 Billion children who are tired of waiting!
