emergent method

In 2016 I was operating like an academic and pulling together ideas from different disciplines. The details are set out HERE

There have been times when I have been an engaged workaholic. I was usually part of a group producing materials to promote thinking so as to change minds. The root of the initiative was to liberate people from the confines of their natal culture and sub cultures so they would be able to think scientifically. This did not assume that there was a “truth” that could be approached when the correct “method” was used. It was a case of generating the best working hypothesis in the light of evidence presently available.

I cherry picked some of the best ideas that were available and, in the Lesotho phase for example, generated 600 one pagers. In my own time, I began to make these available on the internet but ran out of steam. That was over 20 years ago. I subsequentially specialised in plain language editing and worked short projects for Portsoy and District Limited (PDL), the Banffshire Partnership Limited (BPL),The Out of School Childcare Federation (OOSCF) The Caledonia Centre for Social Development (CCSD), HakikazI Catalyst, and the International Labour Organization (ILO). The underlying theme was social development with a focus on grass roots community involvement

supernormal approaching

We can imagine a mental state that is normal. But this implies states of sub-normal or super-normal. We can imagine a future when the old super-normal becomes the new normal. There might then be a time of peace. All that is required is changing minds. Is that time approaching?
