Integral City 2.0 innovation systems are emerging because conscious capitalists, governments, students and citizens are aligning strategies for leaders, organizations and governance systems to transform entire cities from resistant holdouts to resilient human hives. Humans as Gaia’s most “reflective organ” have located 50% of our species’ brain trust in the world’s cities. We are starting to see the shape of Integral [...]

Designing healthcare systems that serve the wellbeing of Integral City 2.0 begins with remembering “health” comes from the same root as the word “whole”. Healthcare in the human hive is based on the principles of Life and Evolution . Wholistic healthcare systems are rooted in natural science and embody values and cultural intentions. Principles that contribute to appropriate [...]

New research shows the power of the web to spread diversity and infect conformity by the provocation of weak signals. Farhad Manjoo from Slate reconsiders his(?) book True Enough’s proposition that the web was narrowing networkers’ worlds to the news/info selections that they chose. Now Facebook has released a study with an interesting design (based on millions [...]

Integral City has blasted into outer space! Or at least sub-orbital flight. Teaming up with astronaut, Dr. Mindy Howard, we are contributing to the Next Generation Sub-orbital Research Conference (Feb 27-29 Palo Alto). Check out Mindy and team’s itinerary for blast off under Flight Training Peak Experience: Optimizing the Conditions of Inner Space for Outer Space. This is a [...]

An Integral City is a complex adaptive human system that concentrates habitat for humans like a bee hive does for bees. As a natural system it faces all the same issues, factors and challenges that affect the concentration of life anywhere: sustaining flows of information, matter and energy for the survival of human life. Serving [...]

Energy, information and matter tracking technology is revealing behavioral secrets of the Human Hive. Three of the best examples I’ve found are: Britain from Above - this BBC series explores explores the evolution of Britain’s infrastructure development from agriculture to transportation, communication to education, and cities to rural redevelopment across the ages. Mesh Cities – a new website whose [...]

Integral City Developers #occupy the positive 1% who generate diversity to overcome the blockages and barriers in city systems. They #occupy development opportunities grand enough to attract others but where the economic risk is designed to reward purpose, priority, profit, people and planet. Developers #occupy the Integral City Voice with visions, inspiring pictures and projects that call forth [...]

EVA Lanxmeer was a destination I was delighted to explore in August while I was in the Netherlands. I went there to visit Peter Merry, Founder of Centre for Human Emergence Netherlands and discover why he had moved to this eco-village. Peter and I walked around EVA Lanxmeer and I recorded his commentary – to [...]

The Experience Integral Conference incorporated powerful practitioners and technologies into its design for the Embodying Integral Sustainability Conference. Five Wisdoms was a new approach for Integral City to working with spiritual practice, energy and collaboration. Five Wisdoms lead us to a place where we could apply it to the Roles in the Sustainability Leadership Meshwork that we developed (along with Souls, Goals [...]
