How human-centric architectures serve as a foundation for our Planet's future
How human-centric architectures serve as a foundation for our Planet's future
I started Transition Insight as a vehicle for values-driven, customer-obsessed product delivery (project/program management) in 2010. The work on this site explores the systemic context for managing compute and data including money; essentially what we call (information) technology. The mechanisms for product delivery reflect underlying architecture. Agile/DevOps is a philosophy and culture of autonomous customer-centric delivery and execution. It requires an architecture that mirrors that to truly prevail (optimally geared to Conway's Law).

Sound institutions require an ecology in which products and services of objective value are created through processes aligning the interests of all (not just immediate) stakeholders in a radically transparent and free marketplace. Venn-complex tribes naturally form (A Quest Called Tribe) based on intrinsic creative talent and shared values rather than externally imposed order; they work autonomously to build and sustain capabilities indefinitely, echoing Noam Chomsky's vision of anarcho-syndicalism. Holistically, this approach ensures that the political economy is internalized and balanced in aggregate.
Epitomized by cover of Joseph Campbell's 'The Hero With A Thousand Faces' each of us manifests their unique creative talent to whatever brings them joy; we self-organize autonomously in organic gatherings (literal translation of kibbutzim as an analogy) to create value ever more productively; transparent mechanisms for exchanging value align self interests to those of the commons; collectively we create something greater than the sum of its parts - a sustainable global reality and life with meaning and purpose. For me the image is of Atlas and we are masons (i.e. we stake to its future and build). The Transition isn't just in sight. It's happening right here, right now.
These essays are available free forever for you to use in your thinking about how we reconcile and scale pluralism and collectivism on our Planet to create a political economy that works as well for the one as for the many ~ अशित
