dynamics + ideas
Here are some tools, dynamics, ideas, and notions to express co-creative design strategies outlined in the Tenderheart Principle.
Symbiotic Agency: The phenomena of collective human agency in a pattern of beneficial reciprocity with, and as, the living world.
Holistic Impact Portfolios: Three Portfolios which occur at the local and bioregional scale to broadcast visual data regarding the flows of equity*, synchronicity, and impact into a global network. As broadcasted mapping “nests” they are designed for the mutual communication, sense-making, response, and orchestration of needs within a community connected by bio-regions. Impacts are curated by a local populace for purposes such as the communication of mutual interests, peer-to-peer responses to bioremediation, climate triage, reparations, and local organic food sovereignty. (*equity in this context includes Inter-Generational equity as the protection and restoration of clean air, pure water, heathy soils)
biospheric community commons: environmental processes and tools as curated by a local populace which democratizes access to climate resilience, energy needs, planetary boundary management, bio-regional care, cradle-to-cradle living, holistic economic commons, Reconciliation, and other transitional initiatives.
Regenerative Patents: An international patent system to protect the circulation and access of a technology, process, or intellectual property as it pertains to a creator, entity, or innovator within Symbiotic Agency.
PEAK CARE: A point in the momentum of building equity within a community in which it has achieved stable value flows enough to overflow its excess resources into other communities with mutual consent. A stable value flow means that the community has resolved poverty, pollution, secured student opportunity, and other collective challenges requiring funding or care. As each community achieves this, they reach a tier of overflow along with other networked regions who then collectively practice at least a 1/10th percentage of wealth redistribution within a borderless framework of Pay-It-Forward*.
**it is important to acknowledge that the aspect of mutual reciprocity in pay-it-forward may seem like a recent untested or altruistic fiction but to the Andean Q’ero or Quechua indigenous peoples of Peru they might compare this dynamic to an ancient practice known as “Ayni / Faena / mita”.
