What All Flourishing Creative Environments Need - The Curious Creative - 0 views

  • CHOICE, RESPONSIBILITY and RESPECT
  • Why does your desk have wheels? Think of those wheels as a symbolic reminder that you should always be considering where you could move yourself to be more valuable. But also think of those wheels as literal wheels, because that’s what they are, and you’ll be able to actually move your desk with them.

    Love this blog post by Tom Barrett that cites Valve Corporation, an American video creation company that encourages innovation--uses the metaphor of desks with wheels to enable people to use their "open allocation" time to do the most important work and contribute the most--similar to the law of two feet

  • Bucky Fuller said many times that you cannot push people, but you can pull them or draw them to your ways of thinking.
  • The way the trim tab and rudder on a ship pull the ship around is that when one turns the trim tab or rudder to one side, it forces the water around the ship to move faster on one side of the ship than on the other side.
  • This lowers the pressure of the water against the ship on that side of the ship.

  • A vacuum is a type of disturbance of the equilibrium forces in society that, in some way, speeds up the flow of energy in the area or direction in which you wish people to move.  This is the human equivalent to Bernoulli’s principle.
  • How this is done is subtle.  Ways to upset the equilibrium pace of society and societal evolution is to introduce new technology, present new information, draw attention to yourself or to something that upsets things in certain ways, or to send out love that draws people in.
  •  
    interesting discussion of trim tab and rudders by Lawrence Wilson, an MD. He quotes Richard Buckminster Fuller who said that for one person to change the entire world, they need "to act like the rudder and trim tab of a ship."
