A Design Portal for Cocreating a Global Wisdom Community

Domain Action: "DEPTH" PAGE is below ("BREADTH" PAGE is here)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We're creating something sorta squid-monster-big here (you've of course seen the Pixar movie "Monsters" and know they're as scared of us as we are of them!).

And design manifestation begins by initiating inquiry and opening conversations. Use this page (the one you are on now) to guide your "depth" of activities through the domains. If you're new to this stuff, go to the "breadth" page to get you started with super simple bite-size steps.











Oh, and tell Alice I won't be home for dinner ! ... Down the Rabbit (w)Hole we gooOO00ooooo ! ! ... Fall gracefully ! : )












COMPREHENSION:
To get a handle on what the hec is going on around here, read the following articles in the order they are listed. They introduce working (play?) models for allowing us to (a) create shared knowledge, (b) generate group momentum, and (c) build organizational capacity. ..... Now, for crying out loud - please don't worry what you don't understand. Hec, just 'stand-over' it all, find a joke in it, and laugh instead : )

1- Building a World-wide Network of Learning Communities
2- Creating an Open Design Matrix for Realizing New Forms of Sustainable Innovation
3- Whole System Principles: Considerations for a Grand Ecology of Design
4- Mapping Next-Generation Innovation using a Six-Point Architecture Model
5- Instilling Design Awareness using the Eight Gate Organizational Alignment Map
6- Cross Pollinating Domain Innovation Teams using Concentrix Management
7- Creating Sustainable Learning Communities: A Domains Overview
8- Steps For Building Content Within Each Of The Domains

ENGAGEMENT:
Once you realize you haven't got a clue what's going on and feel that you never will, then know you are exactly in the right place of chaos and confusion that is necessary to begin the process of thinking outside the 'normal' box. Now then, follow the procedure below. Note this is a long term process and is not something we are going to get done overnight - okay? So, hang in there with me. Allow overwhelm and frustration to be your guides rather than your obstacles.

1- Scan the domains overview page.
2- Follow the steps for building domain content.
3- Answer the domain building inquiry questions.
4- Review the domains inquiry responses from others.
5- Write profound insights, or point to them via links, using the 'comment wall' below.
6- Start a new 'discussion forum' or respond to an existing one below.
7- Invite others to this domain group; done at the right under 'options'.
8- Deepen the Dialog by Initiating a Threaded Discussion Forum

... AND COMING SOON ...
9- Be watching for a cool process that will simplify it all, coming later in the year.
10- Watch the tutorials [ coming soon ] on how to use our online 'Colab' tools, used for connecting and creating with others.
11-Go to your domain's creation wiki site to begin the next level of design (note - this portion is under construction).
12- Become a co-author with us; help to co-write the book Mythogen; an Unfolding Story of Human-kind Consciously Choosing Our Future


Simple; ain't it ?! (HA! Yahhh right) So, jump on in. .... Smiles : )

Have you ever noticed how video ratings get very close but rarely hit “5” as an average?

The Awakening (Author unknown)

A time comes in your life when you finally get…when, in the midst of all your fears and insanity, you stop dead in your tracks and somewhere the voice inside your head cries out…ENOUGH1 Enough fighting and crying and blaming and struggling to hold on. Then, like a child quieting down after a tantrum, you blink back your tears and begin to look at the world through new eyes.



This is your… Continue

Orrrr ... Donating even just $3.33 will help keep this adventure going. Only three dollars and thirty three cents (3 is a magic number for me : ) A few green-backs (3 1/3 to be exact) start to add up. So your donation will actually go a longggg way in helping to 'change normal' : )


HELP KEEP THIS ADVENTURE GOING. Consider donating between $3.33 or $33.33 to help make it so. Email me, Vic Desotelle, if you have any questions.
