Outline

What can we do?

3.1.1 …we can begin by helping people to understand that we have a shared interest in ‘the commons’ – i.e. the set of resources to which the community has, or should have, free and equal access. This is not confined to education, but includes other areas of integration such as health, pleasure, learning, energy, information, shelter and movement – and to which we must now add the world wide web.

3.1.2 …we can enable people to focus on the relationship between ‘architecture‘ and ‘complexity‘ within the context of the ‘Thinkbelt now‘ by making information about the areas of integration comprising the commons available in a continuously updated and updatable form on the web.

3.2.1 …we can collectively assemble a complexity discourse on Thinkbelt design which recognizes that architecture requires anticipatory design.

3.2.2 …we can complete the Thinkbelt study by giving due acknowledgement to Cedric Price’s original conception.
