Ken Fairclough's Role

Ken Fairclough's role at the Pines Calyx Metadesign Workshop - 2008


This was Ken's talk at the Metadesign Colloqium (see whole video) (external link)

Possible Overview of Ken's 10 minute Talk

  • Can we assume that wisdom is a dynamic system of knowing that engenders collective survival?
  • OK, but this suggests that (wise) knowledge must always be adaptive, co-dependent and self-aware
  • This is why most industrial and governmental systems are less effective (=less wise) than ecosystems
  • We can learn more from whole systems in Nature than from how individual creatures function
  • Metadesign is not just bunch of wishes and theories - non-linear design-thinking actually works
  • See Ken's CV
