In Praise of Disobedience                                                                              16
What lies ahead?
 Synthecratic bottom up P2P innovation & fast group learning
  with the help of network bonds. Creating a very strong and fast responding
  and cooperating fabric of small units.

Such units should consist of a strong combination of complementary skilled
 Homo Sapiens - knowledge
 Homo Faber  high skill to make things work
 Homo Ludens Playful Imagination
 Homo Disobediens  Daring & exploring black swans


Examples:

- Friesland: Freya de Vries (13) is active online to design
  banners for Japanese Manga interest group. Specialty: Kitsunes
  (trans-national)

- Group of young scientists KNAW promote the importance
  of fundamental research in COMBINATIONS of different
  practical fields ( trans-sector, trans-discipline, trans- institute)

- Fablabs: emergent network of garage size industries with
  low cost very powerful machines: TNC, 3D printers, Arduino
  PLC electronics.
                                                                     (CC) 2011 vantill (at) gmail (dot) com
In Praise of Disobedience                                                                   17

Conclusion:

After more (elite democracy) or less (mkt creative destruction) successful
versions of Aristocracy, Meritocracy, Media-Consumocracy we will have
P2P Synthecracy by massive use of network technology to create value.
Bottom up and self organized across fences and boundaries using
social network and other ICT tools that bind people together.


 Authorities and hierarcies are no longer very relevant. Thing that work are.

 Use the creative construction networking force of sharing & combining
  ideas/ knowledge/ solutions that have shown to be working =
  Synthecracy. What unique specialised skill can you contribute ??


Around 2012 we will enter the age of global network synergy
            We wish you good connections !
