SunìstemiSunìstemi “uniting, putting together” Week 1 Wednesday Synergy Threshold Network Groups 2012

3 Headed Being 2 Complete the following tasks: Tear a piece of construction paper exactly in half Take two separate socks and pair them Give the person in the middle a sip of water

3 Headed Being 3 Discussion Could any of the three individuals performed the task by themselves in their current state? (either one armed and blindfolded or armless with eyes?) Why did they have to work together?

Uniqueities & Similarities 4 UniqueitiesSimilarities Characteristics that are unique to one individual in the small group Characteristics that are similar to EVERY person in the group

Discuss what these pictures have in common.

Synergy A term made popular by Robert Buckminster Fuller. “Synergy is the principle whereby the behavior of a whole system is greater than the sum of its parts, a result not predictable from an examination of the individual parts” (p. 2) Fuller describes synergy with the alloy chrome-nickel-steel, a metal much stronger and more durable than any of the elements individually. Due to its strength and ability to withstand high temperatures, chrome-nickel-steel is often used in jet engines.

Who was Robert Buckminster Fuller? An engineer, author, mathematician, inventor, futurist, philosopher, Designed the Geodesic Dome – maximum space, least materials based on “synergetic geometry” Carbon molecule “fullerene” named after him because of its geodesic shape Dismissed from Harvard two times Holds 25 patents and 47 honorary Doctorates Authored 28 books

Disney’s Epcot (perhaps the most famous geodesic dome!)

A 3D model of a [[C60]] molecule, also called a "Buckyball". Created by Michael Ströck (mstroeck) on February 6, 2006 in iMol for Mac OS X and Photoshop CS2. Released under the GFDL. Fullerene

How does technology effect synergy? View Steve Johnson’s “Where Good Ideas Come From” Consider these questions: How does technology encourage synergy? In what ways does technology limit synergy? What do you think the future of technology is within synergistic innovation?
