When individuals unite in a shared intention, something mysterious comes into being—with capacities and intelligences that far transcend those of the individuals involved.”
The collective intelligence pioneers who gave interviews that you can listen to at that site include:
There’s also a list of CI-related books organized by these categories:
To absorb the richness of materials in this issue will take loooong time…. If interested readers of this blog want to engage with the those pioneers, you can just click on their name, listen to the interview, then come back here to share the questions and insights that they provoked.
