Timeline0 - the basics

A short introduction on Timeline0.org: the Open Research Project into CollectiveIQ. We use the definition of computer pioneer Douglas Engelbart for Collective IQ "a measure of how effectively a collection of people can concurrently develop, integrate, and apply its knowledge toward its mission" Our main research question: How can socio-technical systems augment the Collective IQ of communities working toward a shared mission? Currently this program has two dimensions: 1. Theory — A thesis laying out the Smartup Hypothesis and how we suggest to prove or disprove it. 2. Practice — Smartup Zero, a real community running the experiment that is testing the Smartup theory for the first time, right now This is scientific research. Money is the means. Not the goal. We are funded through Open Collective. Our fiscal host is Open Source Europe. There are several ways this research is being funded. We always need more of course.
