Social Complexity

        Emergency in social and
          cultural networks

         Cultural emergency by
       immerging intelligence and
               information

        The Universe evolution is
          based on Emergency
               Principles
Collective Intelligence
WEB 3.0
                 Building a collective
                 intelligence by using
                 contextual data and a
                 set of global definitions
                 or ontologies added to
                 the current human
                 digital knowledge in
                 order to create a global
                 intelligence
Gilbert Durand > Historic Memory


Societies have periods of historic memory
 passed from grandparents to grandsons
and therefore traditional knowledge and
       mythologies are transmitted

            Semantic Basins
Social Intelligence and Human
             Evolution
Two big evolutive jumps on Human
           Intelligence:

       Social beheavior

           Language

And perhaps we are about to live
 another one: “The Singularity”
Towards Collective Conscience

Generating Collective Intelligence by immerging
  information is not enough for sustainability.

 We need a way to process that information and
select the best one for our specific condition and
                     location.

And, understand the way in which this information
      is linked to each other and ourselves.
We should do something,
    but how? what?
Understanding our realities
Individual intelligence becomes a collective one, and
then building culture, relationships and conscience
towards social awareness of the whole.

Each individual sees the world according to its own
experience and limitations.

We can find out more about all those different realities
by using technological developments like Semantic
Web and other Information Technology for building a
digital Collective Intelligence.
Look inside

We use these ideas in our own communities,
promoting social responsibility and knowledge
exchange in order to improve our collective
quality of life.

Promote self-awareness in the communities.

Trust in the emergency principle and keep moving
forward to create Cultural change.

CONCLUSIONS
We presented few examples of where and how
collective intelligence and conscience can be enhanced
by using information technology tools

Real people and communities have to be involved in
this process and create that information that can
contribute to that collective intelligence by immerging
intelligence, generating awareness and conscience.

Julius is a semantic web application to support
community development by exchanging information
and contextual data.
PERSONAL FINAL THOUGHTS
           WE FEEL GOOD

KNOW MORE ABOUT OURSELVES AND LIFE

CREATIVITY HAS EXPLODED LOOKING FOR
          BETTER SOLUTIONS

    DIVERSITY IS VERY IMPORTANT

        NATURE IS OUR HOME

   OUR KNOWLEDGE IS FRAGMENTED
WHERE DO WE WANT TO BE?
HERE?
OR HERE?
