You can help shape and build the Evolver Social Movement (E+SM) during a teleconference discussion with Daniel Pinchbeck and me next Wednesday, March 31. The mission of Evolver and Reality Sandwich has always been about bringing together community to create positive transformation in the world, and with the launch of the Evolver Social Movement, we intend to take this vision to the next level. We look forward to sharing our current plans, as well as hearing your suggestions, questions, and vision on how we can move forward together. This will be the first of a series of team calls we will hold with the community in building this consciousness movement together.  (Click here to join E+SM)

We are the ones to heed the call

Thanks so much for the inspiring words.  As the Hopi saying goes, "We are the ones we've been waiting for."  And collectively, members of this community are the "leaders, visionaries, and facilitators" helping make the shift happen.  I hope many of you can join the call and help us take  this movement to the next level.

Blessings,

Jonathan

I'll be on a plane to Atlanta. Best wishes and I'll try to make the next one.

There should be another call coming up within the next two weeks with Daniel Pinchbeck and RS Publisher Ken Jordan.

Sociocracy and the Call

Submitted by Kimberella on Fri, 03/26/2010 - 04:27.
I'm thrilled to be able to participate in the call from Sydney, where it will be noon on April Fool's Day. Being temporarily out of the rat race (hubby has a great science research gig, and I am unemployed and assembling household & devouring books & doing visioning) I have been eating the words of Andrew Harvey (Sacred Activism), Raj Patel (The Value of Nothing), Ervin Laszlo (Macroshift) and a book called "We The People" by Buck & Villines (I think self-published by sociocracy.info). Cultural organization is a big hairy deal, and old forms of democracy, parliament, or communes seem to no longer satisfy. Might I recommend you consider a sociocratic structure? And perhaps also a cooperative ownership structure, where members/donors/supporters (yet to be defined, I'm sure) have an ownership "stake" along the lines of @fluidity 's recent comment. Structure, decision-making, ownership, market, consumption--these are the hard places where rubber meets road or shinola greets fan and these are the places where, if successful, E+SM/Evolver will blossom. So, until the appointed hour, I shall continue to read, and if intense motivation continues, I may have some resources from the Sociocrats to share electronically. Smooches to you all from this Bozosattva Down Under! Kimberella of Sydney

Great work you guys are doing here. I look forward to making the calls and help to bring awareness to the St. Louis area as well however I can. Namaste....

Wow.. where to go from here?

Question..Does the recognition of a crisis change the nature of the crisis? Of course it does.. I propose.Watching Evolver take shape has been exciting and great work is afoot.In group forums I've participated in. The one who brings up a solution or progression can be looked to for action on said topic.(did I just say that... shit)One topic: Evolver is taking shape as a social weave of an awakening collective. How can it grow to help nurture an awakening or transition?Education.. which through Spore's it is achieving and weaving.Echoes of the idea I first heard from Daniel about a snake shedding it's skin as metaphor for empire. Spore fertilizer... anyone got any?

missed the call, but tracking it all...

As a RS contributor from day 1, and pre-day 1 (Metacine, Evolver printzine), I've been tracking and mulling all this for a while, tho somewhat dormant in terms of posting of late. Plus I missed the call, derrr. Looks like it wasn't recorded... or was it, and can you guys post it with a password-protect? I'd vote for the COOP model. Exactly how one structures it functionally is a huge question mark tho, as all these posts and discussions are raising. What levels of contribution gain access to what powers. How do you create a functioning economic democracy that raises creativity to the highest common denominator instead of pushing it to the lowest? How do you make the transition from the formal LLC biz partnership that runs things to a more network-centric model? Ie, where the Evolver social net takes up a distributed decision-making role? Hmmm....
