COINs 2009: Reflections on the first-ever conference on Collaborative Innovation Networks - Core77Posted by I-Open Team. |
A really excellent article by Dustin Larimer about the October COINs conference at the Savannah College of Art & Design. Including perspectives from Peter Gloor, Research Scientist, MIT; designer Christian Madsbjerg of Red Associates; Jon Campbell and Beth Johnson from Continuum; and SCAD Industrial Design student Austin Brown.
"We are a collaborative species. No single perspective could possibly cover every aspect of an issue, but together through the collage of our collective experience we wage war on the challenges of our reality. This is collective intelligence, an emergent characteristic of life that we see in many other social species like honeybees, ants, and migratory birds. At every level of complexity an individual's best efforts could never compare to the magnitude of the seemingly intelligent behavior of the swarm.
