Transition Insight

I started Transition Insight as a vehicle for values-driven, customer-obsessed product delivery (project/program management) in 2010. This site explores the systemic context for managing compute and data including money - information technology - in philosophical terms.

The mechanisms and processes for product delivery reflect underlying architecture. Agile/DevOps is a philosophy and culture of distributed autonomous (customer-centric) incremental delivery and execution.  It requires an virtual architecture that mirrors that to truly prevail (optimally geared to Conway's Law).

Sound institutions require an ecology in which objective value may be created through processes aligning interests of all (not only immediate) stakeholders in a radically transparent and free marketplace.

They work autonomously to build and sustain capabilities indefinitely, echoing Noam Chomsky's vision of anarcho-syndicalism.  Holistically, this ensures the macro political economy is internalized and in balanced. It's time to evolve - risks multiply.

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. 

The is Atlas and we are masons; we stake to the Planet and build its future. The Transition isn't in sight. It's here.
