New Projects

In the essay, Decay of Lying, Wilde (1889) observes that "Life imitates Art far more than Art imitates Life." This past year, I found truth in his observation. While my work focuses on group adaptation, I found myself drawing on the insights from my research in application to the changes happening in my own life. 2011 seemed to be an ending to so many established projects, plans, places, and relationships. At times, it felt like the compass was pointing south. With time, new projects, plans, places, and relationships came into view. While not quite feeling settled yet, exciting projects are in the works. One, in particular, has taken shape - Women in the Systems Sciences Legacy Project. The purpose of this project is to inform our systems sciences body of knowledge (BoK) of the contributions of women from their points of view and experiences in the field. This project will concentrate on living systems scientists, as our role models, save Margaret Mead, are few. In the coming months, I look forward to chronicling this exploration. If you are interested in the field and wish to share your thoughts about this project, please fill out a contact form
