Gleick Group
From 2020worldpeace
The primary nexus between subjective awareness and social mechanisms is the Gleick Group. The Gleick Group is defined relative to a subjectivity, and as such does not constitute a homogenous, member-defined group. Gleick Groups are traditionally divided into friendship subgroups, work colleagues, committees or teams, units or cells, etc, whose boundaries are recognised and reinforced by shared world realities. The three operational qualities of the Gleick Group are non-boundedness, placing one’s self appropriately, and actuation.
One’s Gleick Group is open, always inviting of new people and influences. There is no group membership, no condition for entry and is hence non-bounded.
Placing one’s self appropriately means locating the right subgroup for a particular task, sharing an acceptable means of communication with members of that subgroup, and contributing towards the goals of the members of that subgroup.
Actuation is the experiential feedback loop of participation, deriving the skills for placement of self as well as the evaluation of how to conduct a particular task (cf Inflorescence). All the ramifications of participating in group activities can be learned if there is a quick turn around of events, before enabling larger scale events (cf Temporary Hierarchical Structures).
Actuation of one’s Gleick Group is essential in providing satisfactory realisation of one’s awareness as a human subjectivity, including as it does the experiential nature of evaluation, developing sensitivity to one’s place, and encouraging an open-mind. It is an artistic endeavour. The realisation of Gleick Groups creates the right conditions for social change (eg 2020). Any physical group, team, or meeting of people, is naturally a cross-over of the subjectivities’ Gleick Groups. Awareness of this dynamic, and acting on it, provides a powerful means of avoiding ego-conflict and by-passing the compromise of agenda-agreement (eg The As-One Trajectory).
