Dmitry Paranyushkin explores resilience and adaptability through various methodologies such as embodiment and systems theory, emphasizing the importance of merging different flows and maintaining flexibility within systems. The document discusses concepts like fluid dynamics, swarm dynamics, and fractal variability as examples of resilient collective systems. It highlights the significance of cognitive variability and social networks in understanding resilience in both urgent and calm times.

3. 1. METHODOLOGY

5. Embodiment — an effective way to
adopt an approach not only
intellectually, but also on the
level of reflexes.

6. Systems Theory — talking about
dynamics using the language of
mathematics.

7. Software — open source
principles, iterative development,
live feedback.

8. 2. CORE PRINCIPLES

9. Confluence — the ability of the
different flows to merge.

force
• tuning in to the frequency (sync)
• generating disturbances (disrupt)
• amplification (resonance)
• resilience (deflection)

12. Resilience — the ability of a
system to maintain its form
and, at the same time,
to remain flexible.

13. Google Trends
“resilience” is trending in 2020

14. Fluid Simulation
fluid dynamics offers a great example of resilience
“be like water”

15. Swarm Dynamics Simulation
swarm dynamics is an example of
resilient collective systems

19. Resilience — often based on
fractal variability

20. Fractal = self-similarity
at every scale

24. from Yamada (1995)
natural body movement in the state of rest is fractal

25. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_qtWzjN1F0
this is how fractal movement looks like

26. chaos in animal search patterns
(Reynolds et al 2016)
animals often assume scale-free foraging
intermittent search strategy, short deviations
are mixed with long-range changes

27. Regeneration — period undulations
sent through a system

28. Fluid Simulation

29. Resilient Multiplicities (Networks)

30. resilient social network vs. densely connected

31. urgent discourse: one topic overtakes the others

32. calm times: higher diversity
