Dear members of the ggpl discussion group. I am submitting to the Osaka
design competition the "Orgains Design". Your help or collaboration
with the submission of an "Orgains" design to the Osaka design
competition would be warmly accepted. :-) Carl The Osaka design
competition is about designs for environmental sustainablity and that
includes business plans...
The Orgains design
Orgains is a basic design for a digital based operating system for the
space craft called earth. The Orgains design is hyper function micro
kernel business organisational system derived from a set of simple
cellular automata rules governing the interactions of individual
geographical located networked computational farms nodes of Micro
Cooperatives. The Organis design supports Virtual Networked
Organisations (VNO's) which are dynamic decentralized adaptive complex
digital social structures that are self regulating capable of producing
very complex and reliable digital services. The goals of VNO's
cellular automata rules of the Orgains design is create a large number
of decentralized small sustainable cellular for more than only profit
business structures that incorporate the ethics of digital freedom,
human rights and environmental sustainability with personal
remuneration.
The Virtual Networked Organisations (VNO's) are orgamistic trans-human
digitally networked cellular business structures who's sustainable is
based on the creation of charters for novel non profit Micro
Cooperatives (MicroCo-Ops) business entities geographically grouped in
computational farm grids. Virtual Network(ed) Organisation (VNO)
allows any number of geographically dispersed MicroCo-Ops of knowledge
workers to virtually collaborate on a project under no central planning
and were for many various central areas of focus, the roles of
co-ordination and management arise from any of the project knowledge
workers based on level of knowledge and interest. The definition and
recognition of the operations of VNOs structures are base on the case
studies of the Linux Project done by George Dafermos.
CompuFarms (CF) the physical equavelence of the VNO type structure is
being envisioned and developed in Japan by Carl Sunburg. CF is the
large geo political grouping of MicroCo-Ops that form a peer to peer
computational farming grid nodes for various types of active data
repositories, disaster recovery resources, and for government, finical
and scientific simulations. The data storage and computational
resources provide one source of income for the MicroCo-Ops. MicroCo-Ops
would also provide digital services for local government and educational
services.
The novelty of the proposed VNO MicroCo-Ops based on Greater Good Public
License agreement is that the VNO/CF MicroCo-Ops create the necessary
local micro business structures providing each each person that is an
active member of the Geo. positioned MicroCo-Ops cells with the
communications, computational and finical resources needed. The The
VNO type Linux Projects, would still be base on voluntary participation
in a matrix type of management were the local resources and employees
pay is removed from the VNO projects and they would continue to operate
as they currently do, but achieve a level of sustainablity that is not
available because of there current voluntary nature.
MicroCo-Ops growth will be based on transformation of services from
analog to digital and by cellular replication. MicroCo-Ops upon
reaching a certain size of I/0 and resources will temporally swell its
number of personal and then divide or reproduces it self in various and
complex ways base on a set of simple rules governing its behavior and
particularly MicroCo-Ops interaction with each other.
NanoCorp or MicroCo-Ops rule base / founding charter.
1. They are base on phyical and Geo. location.
2. The limiting size factor for personal is 1 to 26
3. The limiting I/O factor is based localy
4. payment of personal is based on local wages
5. They subdivide in to separate organization
6. They have inheritance base on ?? and need for diversification.?
7. As a non profit they must achieve their goals by not growing larger
in size, but by their reproduction. However at the same time they are in
competition with each other to provide services under GGPL at
continually
The proposed rules attempt to develop computer orgnisational growth
models, that exhibit both continuous sustainable growth through
transformation and replication and complex unpredictable random
behaviors necessary to realize the hyper functional organizational
qualities including decentralize control, self organising, dynamic
response, and efficiency as witnessed in the Linux project and appears
to be occurring with other Libre Source projects.
"the state of nature" The Garden of Eden "that a set of simple "natural
rules" genitic code (like programing ) that repsent combintory
solutions worked out over centures stemming from the laws of physics of
matter that express themselves in complex biological systems with no
centeral control system. The "natural rules" and resulting self
governing and self replcation of biological structures of gentic code
really have no most no parallel to any other human social strutcture
other than the Linux project.
The type of noncentralized control evolution and development of
biological growth base on gentic blueprints and physical law as that
respectively can not be broken or can not be easly changed because of
the many levels of interactive complex behaviour does not seem to have
any thing in common with anarchy nor libertarianism. The "natural
rules" are simple, but exibit high level both localy and global of very
controled highly organised codes boundaries and interactions, that
repesent sets of various solutions for a given set of physical
boundaries and indeed rules that cannot be broken and leave very little
choice for a given life form.
We envision the Organis to be a business model by which payment for
development and services can be introduce to the Liber / free source
Projects with out disturbing the above mentioned organisational
qualities. It is our hope, that a digital based type of "hyper
fictional micro kernel structured" :-) earth operating system can be
created that will have the capabilities to compete with and dissolve the
large inefficient global corporate structures. NanoCorp or MicroCo-Ops
entities who rather that merely express a "code of ethics
duty/obligation" for the greater good of the public, actually provide
legal binding agreements as a non-proift entity to provide a real
services locally promoting digital freedom, human rights and a
sustainable future for all.
