Relational Network Protocols

Protocols for a networked life

Relationality is primary: Acting in a networked way is acting in a way that is warm and hopeful, not cold and instrumental
Density matters: The number and quality of relationships determines network capacity
Three is the minimum: A network requires at least three nodes
You (all) can just do things (together): In networks agency emerges through relationships and coordination and outcomes and spread is far greater than what individual nodes alone could achieve
Boundaries are relational: A network extends as far as meaningful relationship can be maintained
Seeing requires practice: Networks become visible through sustained attention to relationship and patterns
