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 [...]

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 [...]

Cities can do nothing to promote economic development, according to Mario Polese. But are the development patterns he enumerates missing the patterns of development of human culture and consciousness? Polese traces the modern to post-modern fads that have influenced community economic development (CED) at the city scale from the 1960′s to early 2000′s: strategic industries, industrial complexes, [...]

Integral City can be occupied in many ways. It’s time to pay attention to the #Occupy Voices with their messages from the Inner Judges of the Human Hive. If we listen closely to the voices of the 99, we can hear “Occupy” as a strong signal to pay attention to the wellbeing of our cities – where more than 50% of [...]

Evolutionary Enlightenment, by Andrew Cohen is a refreshingly enlivening read that aligns well with the Evolutionary Intelligences of Integral City. Cohen, starts with the traditional path of enlightenment as the starting place for practitioners to achieve a deep knowing of the evolutionary experience of the “Big Bang”. His description of this as not only a scientific proposition, [...]

At Experience Integral’s Embody Integral Sustainability Conference convenor Anouk Brack very wisely used a Theory U design for the five day discovery process. Theory U process is based on the work of Otto Scharmer and is a multi-stage experience that enables a group to traverse the territory from initiation, to sensing, to presencing, to crystallizing to prototyping. and co-creating. I [...]

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 [...]
