C Community

Discussion without manufacturing a crowd.

The community layer begins with bounded, moderated activities. This page lists only activity the project can verify.

Open forumNot yetmoderation first

Participation principle

A community can be open without pretending every interaction is public or researchable.

Attending a discussion, suggesting a source, offering an interview, appearing in a future directory, and participating in research are separate decisions. The site does not bundle those permissions.

Criticism of the project and disagreement about the term are welcome. Moderation should address conduct—harassment, threats, privacy violations, spam—not enforce agreement with the framework.

Verified activity

Only list what has an organizer, time, format, and participation route.

Events

No verified events are listed yet.

An event will appear here only after an organizer, date, time zone, format, and participation route are confirmed.

Groups

No directory of affiliated groups exists.

The project will not manufacture local chapters or label adjacent organizations as affiliates. A consent-based directory can be added later if real groups self-identify.

Forum

An open forum is deliberately not launched.

Open discussion software creates moderation, privacy, abuse, and stewardship obligations. Moderated discussions and reading groups come first.

Reading group starter

A 60-minute discussion on unprogrammability.

Use this without creating an account or sharing participant data with the site.

  1. 10 minDefinition

    Read the canonical definition and identify what is unclear or overbroad.

  2. 15 minCounterexample

    Choose a collective process where central coordination remained stronger than the framework would predict.

  3. 15 minPower

    Ask where informal influence comes from when formal hierarchy is weak.

  4. 10 minInstitutions

    Identify which organizations can redirect the process even without controlling it.

  5. 10 minOpen question

    Write one question the group thinks the project should investigate.

Proposed community charter

Respectful disagreement

Argue with claims and evidence. Do not require political or theoretical conformity.

Privacy

Do not expose private contact details, private-group material, or precise participant locations without permission.

Attribution

Credit work accurately and respect pseudonymous public attribution where appropriate.

No threats or harassment

Threats, targeted harassment, stalking, and abuse are conduct problems, not protected “disagreement.”

Accessibility

Plan activities so participants can identify access needs without making sensitive disclosure public.

Appeal

Substantive moderation decisions should have an explained route for review when capacity exists.

Status: proposed. This charter has not been adopted through a movement-wide governance process, and the site does not imply that it represents universal consensus.
