Unstructured Swarming

Brainstorm Meets flash Mob.

We found swarm cooperation and emergent behaviours in remote-only whiteboard collaboration with no predefined authoritative or meeting structure in groups under eight members.

Findings:

Real-time cooperative design rapidly, generates ideas and peer reviews. Projects in early stage greatly benefit from synchronous, super-high-bandwidth direct feedback and idea growth.

The experience was cognitively and socially fatiguing for the members who required full concentration. Swarms very rarely suit large sizes without fragmentation. It is a highly divergent system and not useful for building toward a predefined outcome.

Adagov.org is proud to help start, continue to be a part of and support the Swarm Community.

Data Library

Co-operative Library for Links

We tried to see how a cooperative resource gathering and modification would work, but the only way to announce its development if not through centralised authority is through advertising.

Findings:

We built a list of community resources and tools which we try to keep up to date, filtered and curated as a service to the Project Catalyst community.

We open-source curate for community safety and trust, but it remains hard to connect people to yet another fragmented resource online without having authoritative structures for attention and trust.

Released:

A high growth rate means the only way to notify new members about the service is to advertise periodically on social media channels. The resource became yet another dislocated resource.

Data Indexing

Swarm with Data Indexing and Connectivity

A structured idea management experience, community owned and operated with clean open data, fluid-ideation, high quality proposals, scalable community evaluation and cross assessment with focus on transparency.

In progress:

We are building our latest

Closed

Before we can manage ourselves at scale, we need to identify who we ware. What are the techniques needed to build core values and principles?

In Progress

Software competes for our attention, strengthens negative emotions and creates anxiety. Conversational UX finds human connection.

In Progress

Beta testing a simple, clean community network with a focus around innovation and cooperation between groups creating amazing things.

In Progress

Can we foster collaboration and a financial structure to be able to work with Ideanote.io?

Funded in F6

Are we building the wrong things in a digital space? Simply bringing our problems from the centralised world and making them immutable?

F7 - Raising

Building infrastructure for better decentralised governance featuring ongoing voting, collaborative editing and structured discussion.

A starting point and welcome page for those new who want to engage with Project Catalyst and want to find out what the Project is about.

Our current platform is inflexible to the speeds we need to operate at. Our design is fast, beautiful and data-driven. Currently the data layer has been built with the user interface in beta.

If you're getting serious with Project Catalyst, this resource provides instructions based on the latest word in Catalyst's evolving process.

Project Catalyst is a series of experiments which seeks to generate the highest levels of community innovation. Our community self-determines priorities for growth.

Cardano is a blockchain platform for changemakers, innovators, and visionaries, with the capability required to create possibility and bring about positive global change.

Training wheels for collaborative governance for the Cardano network. Based on idea management technology from the 90's it provides a place for proposers to enter their ideas.

Develop an engaging new way of remotely collaborating in real time that has to be experienced to be understood. The Swarm combines brainstorming and flash-mobbing to create a forum for diverse perspective.

Shaping minds who are curious to understand the world around us through key change-maker issues using gamification techniques and engaging topics so students can level up and earn responsibility within the community.

Create ethically humane digital products through patterns focused on user well-being. Create empowering design that ensures products centre on the value they provide over revenue they generate.

Maximise the overall quality of your innovation by using divergent and convergent processes, holistic thinking and tangibly develop early-stage design or final stage refinement.

For those who love to build, put your skills to use by filling in the gaps between technologies to create seamless integration into a unified decision making and governance platform.

Combining information theory with behavioural economics to design systems that protect against human-bias while ensuring policy and project throughput. We aim for inclusivity as well as resilience.
