At Ultimate Collaboration, a sub-project of Hermes' Loom, we start off by collecting links to projects in similar realms, i.e. everything around holistic regenerative transformation. By checking out the mentioned links, you might get a better idea of what that means.

Another main intention of this page is to illustrate that the ideas supported by Hermes' Loom are certainly not new – after all, the mission of Hermes' Loom is to weave together and to connect what already exists, not to reinvent the wheel. At same time, so far the mentioned projects don't seem to be interconnected in the all-addressing way we intend.

If you would like to add any links, please raise an issue on GitHub or contact [email protected].

Note that all links stem purely from online research. Being listed here does not necessarily imply endorsement, and some links are here to show how NOT to do it. This list is still pretty messy, I know. Some links might be in wrong categories.

    • The essence of presencing is that these two selves – our current self and our best future self – meet at the bottom of the U and begin to listen and resonate with each other. Once a group crosses this threshold, nothing remains the same. Individual members and the group as a whole begin to operate with a heightened level of energy and sense of future possibility. Often they then begin to function as an intentional vehicle for an emerging future.

Movements

Second Renaissance and Game B

• https://lifeitself.org/
  • according to a member: The reason “Life Itself” is chosen for this organisation though, as far as I can tell, is that it’s a community of people who for the most part believe that the foundational views and values of modernity/postmodernity/the enlightenment, while not inherently bad, encourage a world and way of being which don’t fully capture the fullness and possibilities of human life or life in general, and tend to neglect things like inner development, the interconnectedness of all things, and the inherent mystery of being here. A lot of people here think that we need a civilisational transition into something else, and this space acts as a way to explore what these shifts in views and values looks like.
• https://wiki.secondrenaissance.net/wiki/An_overview_of_related_ecosystem_mapping_efforts
• https://www.ama-project.org/explore/?vis=map
• https://www.gameb.wiki/index.php?title=Category:Projects
  • In short, the goal of GameB is a metastable society emphasizing human wellbeing built on good values that we will be happy to call home and we will be proud to leave to our descendants. (https://medium.com/@memetic007/a-journey-to-gameb-4fb13772bcf3)

Privatkunden können das Stiftungsvermögen beziehungsweise ihren eigenen Stiftungsfonds sowohl zu Lebzeiten als auch über eine entsprechende testamentarische Verfügung aufstocken. Daneben sind Spenden – auch in den einzelnen Stiftungsfonds hinein – möglich.”
