6 Audit Summary - Panoramic Design

We leave a socio-technical interim report for you. Kuhg will do the full forensic analysis of the 8 technologies later. Earth people - see not silicon, but values in objects, talk and actions. Avoid the fate of the Kappa System - a 200 year eco-war.

Audit Report Summary 

Hola, مرحبا , 你好, ສະບາຍດີ, नमस्ते, Bonjour, привет, Hello ....

I will divide the report into:

1) Theme 1: Earth re-design frames
2) Theme 2: Negative earth principles
3) Theme 3: Positive earth principles
4) Theme 4: Big design versus big destruction

1) Theme 1: Earth re-design frames

Human Design is maturing from individual geniuses, through science, engineering, marketing and hot teams, to innovation networks and knotworks of messy socio-technical change. 

Design is becoming THE central human discipline for object, discourse, system and institutional construction, and at some point indeed, alignment. When you achieve 65% alignment, you can apply for NAPSTA Level 4. But remember, full accreditation requires 90% alignment.

Earth design covers diverse human activities from its roots in art, industrial design, product design, architecture (my favourite earth design) and fashion to more recent educational design, environmental and social design. Design is like computing - fragmented horizontally across your discipline verticals now. Design is implicit in technology construction, from user experience design to urban city re-design. 

Design holds much potential as the most important vehicle for your future Level 4 NAPSTA Accreditation. Design can include or exclude values and factors, design can be itself reductive or expansive. Design can be imperial or participatory. We load our objects, systems, tools and technologies with values, such as Centurion Postman's "5 Things". Design is the means of encoding.

The following diagrams show your evolving design frame. What is in and what is out of the frame? You choose, you accept the consequences. So, think carefully, before applying for full accreditation.

Have you widened your frame enough yet? Is your frame expansive or reductive? The following diagrams show design frame inclusion and exclusion, and examples for Google Glass, Data Centres and Mobile Computing.

 

By acting to make a phone, or implement a data centre, you are choosing to inject values into your environment, whether you talk about it or not.

2) Theme 2: Negative earth principles

Earthlings have a number of obstacles to overcome in thinking and acting. 

Reductionism - shrinking all you think of to universal natural laws, even though there are always exceptions. Universals only work in mono-modal books. A single universal method of "science" does not exist and reduction is inherently for subjective exploitation. Quine should be jailed in the Nonenaka System for 1,000 years. Not very level 4!

Expulsion - of ethics, society, the voiceless, environment and personal / spiritual value from all your progressive sciences for 100s of year. Very selfish, very Nietzschian. Simply, if you want to do the hard stuff, you need to bring them back into design, this is not as simple as going to the moon. Values are already implicated in everything you do. Not talking about ethics, doesn't make ethics disappear. Acknowledging these factors in every aspect of science, technology, business and funding is the starting point of change.

Techno-commerce centre

Centralisation resources (human and material) will not serve your long term universal progress to NAPSTA Level 4. Centralised collection of resources will only serve your short term profit centred  knotworks, not expansive Nivelian progress. Much of your corporation culture requires reframing as within, not external to the society and environment, as argued by Senator Joel Bakan (2004). Puhg expect's you will begin to achieve this after the competition unleashed by globalisation has finished. Good luck.

3) Theme 3: Positive earth principles 

Cross discipline activity

Earth has begun to bridge science and culture, technology and sociality. Make, test and multi-pilot new innovations over decades. Be green individually and across power infused knotworks. Check they don't affect Earth Salmon stocks. Other planets have erected massive Cross Discipline Towers for this, to counterbalance the Mono-reducto towers. Puhg says make a great city called "Polyplinia".

Problem centred

Surround Polyplinia with new problem centred towers - the Discipline of Poverty, the Encyclopaedia of Equality, the Great Library of Gaia, the Athenian School of Excess Management. Let these new disciplines not be sub-topics, but be university degrees and department titles. Invade old level 3 world courses. The Great Oracle Blair did this with the HighWire Disciplinary Blurrrrrrr. Friends, Nivelians, ... raise a glass to the Blair Clan, and their Pan Galactic Vision for Next Gen Knowledge-Middleware (x-KM-v1).

Ontological praxis 

Knowledge, disciplines, ideas and thoughts come from praxis, what we do, not Vossk Brandy. Cognition and ideas are not the baseline, praxis is. Read the toooombs of Vygotsky, Arendt and Anderson to see how mind, action and the carpet business show the path forward. Acknowledge praxis, what we do everyday, as the source of what we think everyday. Couple this acknowledgement with partnerships, not exploitation of participants. Follow Emp-torian Ambassador Tim Brown's Design Thinking and Activism. Puhg says fund practice, problem engagement, and empirical partnerships, not laws and ideas in mono-towers.

4) Theme 4: big design versus big destruction

Finally, earthlings, choose your path and await Kuhg's return within the next 200 years. I will be watching and rooting for a successful Earth Application to become a level 4 civilisation through the rapid expansion of Design Frames, and application of these tailor made planetary principles to get you out of the techno-commerce doldrums. 

And remember, Kappa destroyed too much of their eco-system before the Design Frame could encompass enough powerful actors. A real shame, and lots of deaths ensued.

My world didn't develop collective rationality for a long time, but we are now applying for Level 9. We grew our cross discipline design frames to be part of everything, just like your silicon technology is becoming part of everything at level 3. Like your utopian computers that disappear when ubiquitous, pervasive ethic-tech also disappears when it is complete.

Panoramic design emerges in Level 4. Ethico-technologies at Level 5.

Although, we did sacrifice one thing on our way to our Galactic Enlightenment ...... good, fresh, tasty, sublime ...... salmon. 

Hence, ...

... I will return. 

We am Puhg.
