Web Science?
Link = [link]

I wonder about building things without a design.
This is an organic situation then of sorts...
A "whole system" method of construction...
yet no one seems to understand whole systems...
Yet how can they...
the emmesity of whole systems seems to preclude there
lack of top down control... a good thing
yet the web is intended for democracy...?
another good thing of sorts...
so we have "whole system democracy"
hmmmmm not sure if there is any such "plant" "animal"
or "person"....

interesting and well studied article
can't says I am in total agreement
nice snippet here though

quote: "Syntropy," defined as the conscious integration of all parts of a whole system, including paradoxically related elements, and all levels of organization into movement toward a specifiable goal pattern, is a way of structuring thought and action to become more inclusive, more constructive, and more purposeful. It is based on the idea that, carefully organized, a more inclusive and consciously purposeful approach recruits more energy and resources, and results in more durable progress--with more creative leaps--toward desired ends. This in turn produces a more satisfactory emotional life and healthier interpersonal relationships.

A syntropic movement toward worldwide peace and democracy, then, would include all elements that we as a species can bring into telic relationship with a specifiable, future world system. A few of the infinite number of elements that are parts of the syntropic democracy movement are individuals, families, ecosystems, the human ideals of social justice and economic well-being, antinuclear movements, integrative international institutions, the world religions, organizational democracies, holotropically organized syntropic communities; the many nonprofit, peace and democracy organizations; any specifiable vision of world peace and democracy, "love," "unity," the "human spirit," and of particular importance today: identification of self with one's ethnic or racial group, and simultaneously, with the whole of humanity. :Unquote

Quote: To survive and prosper, we will have to transform the full force of human thought, feeling, and action into new socioeconomic, cultural, and political structures that more effectively utilize everything that each of us can do. Within such organizations our daily actions would begin to produce, simultaneously, the means of our livelihood and the structures of world democracy. This done, then surely our children's children will be able to look back upon us with a special love--recognizing that our generation, at this time of great decision, had the passion and the intelligence to ensure the future of life on Earth and, perhaps, in other regions of the Universe... :Unquote


hmmmmmm( the world music from the balkins on the radio would seem to concur....)

("Music exists only if it has a spiritual content other wise it is just noise" author?)
