The individual's comprehensive informedness. The individual's joining action with others, as motivated only by the individual's conceived consequences of so doing. The Internet facilitates joining in action with others without concern for the validity, hierarchy, or boundaries of traditional political and social organizations. Uncensored access to information provides previously unimagined opportunities for informedness. Sean asked me a question, and I ended up reading Critical Path to find out about Fuller's principles.
Precession is the effect of bodies in motion on other bodies in motion.
A message tossed into cyber-space, illustrates precession like a stone tossed into a pond, sending out a circular waves which bounce, again and again, continually propagating new waves in new directions. The Internet brings with it the possibility of using stones to battle the Goliaths who establish, sustain and maintain their domination of communications through their control of more traditional one-way channels. By 1917 Fuller had theorized that accelerating acceleration , a physical principal noted by Galileo, was applicable to human sociology. In the early twenties he began to write of ephemeralization or doing more with less. I decided in 1917 to scientifically document its emergent realizations as they impinged upon the daily life of an individual, his family, and his world.
