The human body has a fractal essence: not only on the level of the physical structure but also in terms of the dynamics of many processes that happen within. The systems that exhibit fractal dynamics are known to be more resilient and adaptive. Therefore, it is possible that if we can modulate fractality in a system, we can support its homeostasis, make it more resilient and adaptive. …

In this article, we propose the idea of an open-source AI spirit, which is comprised of an algorithm that encourages a certain ritualistic practice, supports the discipline and provides feedback to the practitioner. …

Most brainstorming techniques have one thing in common: they are about connecting ideas. The next step is to put those ideas to writing. In this article, we will demonstrate a new approach to brainstorming using text network analysis. We will be using the InfraNodus brainstorming tool, which converts plain text into a mind map and then proposes the new connections between them.…

How to reveal the main topics in the positive and in the negative customer reviews in order to see what makes them happy and what makes them dislike the product. …

In this case study we demonstrate how you can build mind maps from text in a truly rhizomatic way and much faster than with the standard mind mapping tools. You can start writing and let your ideas flow. InfraNodus will visualize them for you and identify the patterns and the gaps within them, so you can develop your discourse further. …

Based on the text variability modulation technique, we propose a technique for conducting an interview. It is implemented into our InfraNodus text network visualization tool, so you can try it out on a real conversation, a Zoom talk, or a brainstorming session. …

Modulating variability in a text or a conversation can have an interesting effect on its dynamics. A writer will never get stuck, a conversation will always be interesting, a discourse will stay ecological at its core. We propose an approach based on panarchy, embracing diversity and homogeneity at the same time, as applied to discursive practices.…

In our increasingly interconnected world the notion of mind viral immunity becomes very important. It is already difficult enough to deal with the multitude of inputs coming at us from every direction. What happens when their number increases exponentially? How can we protect ourselves from everything being available at any moment of time? Network epidemiology frameworks can help. Diversity is the key.…

Most of the artificial intelligence research today is based on the notion of the mind. Computational models, neural networks... Brain seems to be in the center of attention and mind seems to be the Thing. But what about the body? And what is the role it can play in the development of artificial intelligence?…

Proposition for the new body/mind operating system based on variability, fluid dynamics, and the embodied understanding of a metaphor. …

The effects of warfare are often compartmentalized to the kind of imagery that is merely shocking and sensational. Warfare is then (mis)understood as a kind of violent and destructive exercise only. How can we rethink our understanding of conflict / war and learn something from the dynamics that it produces?…
