Co-Operators Convergence - 6/15/21
Interviews with Authors:
Bucky: If you want to teach people a new way of thinking, don't bother trying to teach them. Instead, give them a tool, the use of which will lead to new ways of thinking.
Here are distilled excerpts from spaceshipearth.live home page:
What the CMSE is...
1. a doers manual
2. a comprehensive catalogue of curated resources that help humanity step into mutual aid, cooperation, equity and an infinite game dynamic full of mutual benefit.
3. an annually published book; media sites; educational tools
4. an interactive platform – a ‘living manual’
What it does...
1. elucidates trimtab interventions, to help move forward comprehensive strategies and anticipatory action.
2. offers an invitation to cooperatively iterate the approaches.
3. Illuminates leading drivers, base assumption and root causes of issues.
4. benefits all systems affected including parallel and precessional systems.
5. presents works of high-integrity topics and the people involved in their development.
6. brings to life the metaphor of Spaceship Earth by “making the invisible visible,” and cultivating thinking in wholes.
Who’s it for... “people of all ages”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before discussing resources, interviews, it would be helpful and fun to strategise how we engage 10-20 resource experts who’d LOVE to see their work in the CMSE. They will help us define utility; market; trimtab strats for all of life! Please join us if you're interested in:
· getting clarity on the above description of the CMSE
· designing a simple strategy to engage resource experts to clarify the utility and audience for their work and the CMSE
· contacting 1-3 resource experts each. It'd be great to consider interviewing people across the planet who have resources that fulfil the ‘whats’ of the CMSE and want to reach/help wider audiences. Thrice during our sessions, mention was made of how non-English speakers might be involved, use, contribute, etc. I will contact a few in my network living in Australasia, Mexico and South America (all Bucky-lovers) who could take a template and interview someone from their region.
· sharing the responses we gather to understand the wants, expectations, needs and next steps to take back to the wider co-operators group.

We spoke of the technology of yoga & meditation, the need for spiritual practice during these unusual times.
Interdependence =My success depends on your success.
I think that spontaneous cooperation is the context of of Bucky's "make the world work" quote arises from the design of a new system which works better than the existing system, so that people desert the existing system to participate in the new system
