Action Research on Collective Foraging (Negotiation Affordances)
The mission of the Collective Foraging Lab is to improve collective sustainability and individual well-being through the praxis of team formation and deployment for value co-creation and capture. Phase I will focus on the effects of negotiation affordances on predictive processing and value exchange.
Yes. this group is open to all learners.

Froebel's System
I am studying under Dr. Matthew Segall at the California Institute of Integral Studies to be able to recognize the philosophical principals Froebel was influenced by. I have joined the 12 week xAPI Spring 2024 cohort to capture data related to Froebel's first gift, the sphere. As a first step, I would like to use xAPI and a few Learning Record Stores to capture and analyze data gathered from ball play. I would like to use the as an initial QRF for prototyping purposes. Eventually all of Froebel's Gifts and Occupations will be analyzed and the research shared.
Yes, open for collaboration — Especially looking for skills in active inference and spatial web technologies.
Meetings to be determined.

Numinia
First mission would be to make sure we are implementing Active Inference in the game properly and is well explained, another mission would be to ensure that the design of the incentives aligned with the values of Numinia and the AII.
We would like to have collaborators that can help on incentive systems, on gamification, on tokenomics, on philosophy, and on the help to properly implement the Active Inference in the game of Numinia. They can join our Discord or we can do a group on the AII discord as well work with the tool similar con coda.io To be updated

MathArt Conversations
Our mission is to illuminate mathart as a synesthesia and to highlight the profound connections between mathematics, active inference formalism, and the arts. Moreover, our objective is to amplify the variations in mathematical and artistic thinking, by working major concepts and theorems cross-disciplinarily.
We are seeking those with artistic background or a background in mathematics who are curious about researching the intersections between math and the arts.
