Subject: project ./logicaland
[./logicaland v0.1]
a participative global simulation
http://www.logicaland.net
[./logicaland] is a project study for visualizing our world's complex
economical, political and social systems.
[./logicaland] tries to engage people into strategies of raising human
sensibility and responsibility within the global networked society. the
challenge is to develop ideas, tools and visualizations that fit the
requirements of complex correlating systems and our world's complex
participative environment.
based on a scientific global world model of the mid-seventies, we
developed
a tool that facilitates people to take part in a simulation.
the main idea is to provide a public web-based world-simulation within a
participative environment, where all users have equal influence on the
system. everyone with internet access should be able to participate in
[./logicaland]. one user's influence on the system is minimal since it
is a
fraction of all participants' actions. only if a lot of users follow
similar strategies, serious change can be achieved.
[./logicaland] v0.1 is a work in progress, a prototype of a global
simulation that is to be controlled by a community of unlimited
participants.
we invite users all over the world to take part in dealing with global
interrelationships by contributing to logicaland's simulation.
