Rules, norms, mores, codes, taboos, beliefs, dogmas, narratives and ideologies
These are part of a larger set of abstractions (see Slide 16 notes) that limit possibilities for generative thought and action.
Some items, dogmas for instance, can be dismissed once recognised.Generative
Geared towards generating value, meaning and joy. Seeking to create that which improves people’s lives and makes the world a better place. World-enriching. There are two main levels of generative action. Level 1 is action aimed at generating value for others (let someone borrow your bike). Level 2 is action aimed at creating that which generates value for others, again and again (let them keep your bike).
Other items, such as social etiquette, must be observed. Ingenuity and resourcefulness are needed to break free from their constraint, within the bounds of legality, morality and common decency.
