In a paper by Takashi Iba, he explores an essential part of the process he uses in the development of new pattern languages – a practice that is called "clustering". This practice was developed by Jiro Kawakita, a Japanese anthropologist and is the basis of what is often called 'affinity mapping'.

In a paper presented at the 2017 PURPLSOC Conference, Takashi Iba explores the nature of egoless creation as the foundation for a new theory about the nature of the creative process.

>"a community should be shaped gradually by the people living in it and decisions should not solely be in the hands of outsiders who do not know the intricate details of the residents’ lives (Alexander, Davis, et al., 1985)."

We think about the nature of patterns. From Alexander we have embraced the paradigm of pattern languages – recognizing that this paradigm is likely rooted back in the pattern books of Downing, a link through Scully.

We are embarking on a journey. A journey to understand how organizations might be able to better design and cultivate complex systems that are more resilient. Something that might be called robust resilience.`

Normally, when we speak about MVP, we are talking about a "minimum viable product". That is, a product that has only the most essential features in order to be valuable to a customer. By focusing on this offer, it is possible to get products out to the market faster so to test its underlying assumptions about customer needs and experience.

He developed Smalltalk with the hope that it might lead software developers to this new level of thought – one which is spatial by nature – a language which then inspired Ward to develop the fedwiki.

Two Chilean biologists coined the word 'autopoiesis' to describe the fundamental nature of organic systems, Autopoietic Systems that were 'self-creating'. Contrast this with artificial systems, systems that are mechanical in nature, what be called 'allopoietic systems', the 'other creating' of a factory assembly line.

Pattern 253, "Things from your Life", is the very last pattern of Chris Alexander's Pattern Language for architecture.

We wonder if the feeling of truly being alive is recognised by all as an inherent capacity of all human beings. We wonder if everyone recognises this feeling when it is experienced, and can recognise when it is not. We wonder if all are aware of the experience of autopoietic living, in which our Infinite Potential is realised.

Alan Kay developed Smalltalk with the hope that it might lead software developers to this new level of thought – one which is emergent by nature – a language which then inspired Ward to develop the fedwiki.

How many streams are flowing into this confluence?

I was reminded when reading one of Takashi's papers recently of Christopher Alexander's focus on the importance of "wholeness" and "quality" when creating space imbued with vitality.

Here we begin to share a single, personal story of influences – an 'influence schema' – that, we hope, might help others to understand our thinking as we continue down the path of learning about learning.
