The first Geek Out session was a thought-provoking Meet-Up amongst coworkers, local academics, community organizers, architects, activists, and students. We got to know each other and began to scratch the surface of 4 different, nested paradigms: Extracting Value, Arresting Disorder, Doing Good, and Evolving Capacity. We shared stories across disciplines and dipped our toes into an exploration of alternative mindsets.
These conversations are just getting started, and aim to be a resource or well for folks to continually come back as a source of inspiration and learning. Join in, have a drink, eat some falafel, as we shift ourselves into understandings of the world that don't just fix what's broken and do less harm, but increase the vitality and equity within our systems.
