YOUR AUDIO TRANSMISSIONS ON EMERGENT SCALING & INSTITUTION-BUILDING
On the final day of MAKE ART NOT CONTENT,
(my 2025 immersion re-defining art, power, & authority in line with my philosophy of Emergent Business and the world I desire to create),
I recorded an unexpected transmission on EMERGENT INSTITUTION BUILDING.
The following is that transmission.
It is not so much the articulation of a "clear" formula or structure,
as it is GENERATIVE ideas & an energetic activation
on the subject of building Emergent Businesses & Collective Institutions in the fertile ruins of the present.
Listen here:*
*Scroll down for the images & quotations I reference in the audio.
Images & Quotations:
From The Sympathy of Things (on John Ruskin & Gothic architecture):
"[In the Gothic, a]ll members exist only in context, never in advance; that is, they exist in advance in a less defined state and become more determined the moment they interact with others."
"None of the Gothic members are elements that can be shown separately or in isolation on the page; they exist only in context, are created out of relationships with each other."
For those of you drawn to this work...
Whether for your own purposes or because you're looking to join forces...
I have an invitation for you.
So much of the online business world will teach you about how to make money fast. Maybe "sustainably."
But what we are doing in the Lyceum world is instead CO-CREATING NEW MUTABLE TEMPLATES FOR BUILDING WORLDS, TOGETHER.

5 Days in Telegram on Building & Scaling Emergent Institutions among the Fertile Ruins of the Present
$11 | Begins Monday, June 29
Given the apparent failure of old models of structure, safety, protection, and collective power... how do we build a livable world?
What role do our Emergent Businesses have to play in the current re-organization?
And how can we fold this world-historical perspective into the way we make money, make art, & live our daily lives -- in practice?
This is what we are investigating in I AM THE MATRIX.
WHAT I'LL BE SHARING
-> my emergent theory of historical & collective change developed, by accident, during my decades of scholarly study (which led me to leave academia & enter the online space)
-> how I'm building an Emergent Institution in real-time, from scratch, from the bottom up (the good, the bad, & the ugly...yet infinitely satisfying)
-> the somatic & energetic work necessary to conceive & lead a collective body (including a potent practice to create inner space for this)
BUT I'M NOT JUST TEACHING YOU MY TEMPLATE FOR CREATING EMERGENT INSTITUTIONS.
I'M ACTUALLY RECRUITING YOU TO CO-DEVELOP THESE TEMPLATES WITH ME.
All my teaching spaces are emergent, experimental, and inevitably result in new knowledge in me & my "students."
All my work is developed through exchange & collaboration with you.
Through your questions, your thoughts, your experiences, and even just the welcome challenge of presenting my work to you.
So if you think participating in this emergent research & world-building project could be fruitful to you in any way--
I'll see you inside ;)
