People as Code 4 - Entropic Systems
Embracing Entropy as a concept for design. Turning from the theoretical to the practical. Observability, not measurement. Questions as interfaces, data as plural
People as Code 3 - Quantum Uncertainty
What happens when we stop pretending control is ever possible and design with uncertainty.

Endings
Thinking about endings and beginning. Composting, knowledge, wisdom.
Observations, signals and structures that liberate.
This post brings together some things I've been thinking about and using with groups who are working in collaborative structures or system change.
