FACILITATING MUTABILITY ---------- A PROG UNKNOWN CHANGES AHEAD AND CONTI

1. OPEN

"The most pervasive shift taking place in the world today is the relentless acceleration in the pace of change, since today's infrastructure is based on digital technologies which driven by Moore's Law, continue to evolve at an exponential rate."

"According to ecologist C.S. Holling, wealth [in the 21st century] should be measured, not in money or power but rather in the ability to change and adapt. In both physics andecology theory, resilience is a way of conceptualizing this ability. But the best resilient systems don't just bend and snap back. They learn."

GRAMMATIC STRATEGY FOR ACCOMMODATING INUALLY RECALIBRATING IN THEIR AFTERMATH

"Swarm Intelligence applies to animal or even artificial groups that exhibit intelligent behavior at a group level well beyond that shown by its individual members. The dynamical organization of a social insects colony is a striking example of this notion, whose efficiency is reflected in their widespread ecological success. It is now evident that a colony's collective performance depends as much on the interactions between the individuals and with their environment as on as individual complexity."
