Re: What was the best part of The Park?

It was indeed a lot of fun and ground-breaking at the time and really still is. Wished there were venues like it today, as this day and time are prime for such interactions. 

Re: What was the best part of The Park?

Wao your post selection and the best part of The Park and style both are great. I am so excited to see this.

Re: Age no longer displayed on profiles

I'm happy to say that the company has finally removed age from being displayed around ECC.  I'm still shocked that any company would think to show age as the default setting but I'm glad it's finally fixed.

Re: Age no longer displayed on profiles

Grrrr, you're right!  I can see age is still being displayed.  

I'm proud of my age, experience and wisdom that comes with it but frankly I am flabbergasted that a company that makes technology to bring people together would assume that it's ok to display age and not give the sysadmin the ability to suppress the age.

Thanks for letting me know, pinkpetals... I'm going to try to reach out the them again but their customer support has been wretched.

Re: Age no longer displayed on profiles

I see yours and everyone else's age in the posts, not on the profiles. But I'm kewl with it, either way! I've earned every stripe I have.. :) Hope you are doing well, Brent! 

Age no longer displayed on profiles

A few weeks ago I was shocked to see that the system we currently use here at ECC was displaying age on some profiles.  That problem has since been fixed. Apologies for any consternation that this may have caused!

Re: Knowledge, Wisdom and Business

Hi Michael,

Welcome to ECC!

It's nice to see you here and thank you so much for your kind words regarding the video interview.  I just connected with Elisabet recently so I'm guessing finding you here is not by accident. :)

It sounds to me that what you're referring to as "warm data" might be classified as information in the traditional Wisdom Pyramid/DIKW Pyramid model.

I am also keenly interested in the subject of collective intelligence... and especially collective wisdom.  I've created a 3 hour workshop titled "Back to the Basics with Knowledge Management", which aims to help shift hearts and minds by bringing us back to very fundamental truths and common ground that we can almost all agree on. It's also a way of "talking about politics without talking about politics", which I feel is very powerful during these challenging and chaotic times.  I charge when I give it in a customized way to businesses and organizations but I give it at no charge as a service to the world community.  I'll share about it more on ECC as I get closer to offering it another time, most likely within the next 3-4 weeks.

Many blessings to you as well!

Brent

Re: Knowledge, Wisdom and Business

Hello Brent,

I am new to your community after our mutual friend, Elisabet Sahtouris, introduced me to your work. Thank you for sharing your insightful video - beautiful!

Two possible additions which sprang to mind when you spoke of the pyramid of knowledge in an organization (possibly just below wisdom):

1. What Nora Bateson refers to as Warm Data: what we know (and are slowly learning) about the connections or relationships between datasets. See more here: https://hackernoon.com/warm-data-9f0fcd2a828c
2. Collective Intelligence, where "experts" get out the way and we recognize that we all hold a piece of the jigsaw puzzle and only by coming together (like the liminal cells in Elisabet's butterfly story) can we build the entire jigsaw puzzle of a new form of civilization.
