Holotopia: The Collective Mind insight
Scope
There can be no doubt that the printing press, and the improvement of communication and of the spreading of knowledge it enabled, contributed to the Enlightenment. Some historians even consider Gutenberg's invention as its main cause. What might have a similar effect today?
The Inernet has just recently been developed; and it has already changed our lives beyond recognition. Isn't that already the answer to our quest?
In effect, the network-interconnected interactive digital media have connected us all together in a similar way as the nervous system connects together the cells in an organism. We look at the process which we use, as cells, to process the knowledge together. How does our collective mind work?
Insight
Without thinking, we've adopted broadcasting (which suited the old technology) to be the way. But broadcasting leads to collective insanity—not to collective intelligence, as it was intended.
