Experiments

A community experiment to cultivate an identity around understanding the world in a nuanced way and developing agency through experimentation.

Consequential times

We're living in high stakes times. Things feel like they might go either very well or very badly. Meanwhile, we have unprecedented opportunities to research, develop skills and act on the world. We're here, exactly in the right moment in history, to make the good future happen.

Cultivating understanding

Society is polarized with identities built around defending ideas, often involving guilt, enemies and despair. But reality is complex, nuanced and frankly just fun to try to understand. We're here to understand history and the present, to understand how we can make good things happen.

Developing agency

Making things happen means continuously developing skills, honing your mental models, building relationships and more. We're here not to have endless theoretical debates, but to support each other in making things happen, supported by the understanding we cultivate together.
