Emergent Collective Petrie (2010) introduced the concept of “Emergent Collectives” - A network of information/function nodes that has minimal central control, and that‟s largely controlled by a protocol specification. - In which it‟s easy for people to add nodes to the network - And where there are social incentives that motivate people to act collectively. www.emergent-collectives.be AOG FEB – Jan Devos - 06/03/2012 pag. 3 Faculteit Ingenieurswetenschappen en Architectuur – Campus West

- 22. Is Bricolage a theory? • Levi-Strauss 1962 Bricolage is an analogy to shed light on the processes underlying mythical thinking • Constructs of Bricolage (Duymedjian & Rüling 2010) Repertoire (stock) = material and immaterial resources that are collected independently of any particular project or utilization.

Hinweis der Redaktion
- Upper partA necessary (but not sufficient) condition for the take-off of an EC is the speed by which data can be interchanged. A speed of 15Mbps is a strict minimum. According to the IUT by 2015 entry-level broadband services should cost less than 5% of the average monthly income. In Europe 11 of 15 countries has already affordable broadband services with sometimes only 0,3% of the monthly income.Lower partNot only the speed matters but also the degree of mobility of the connection. Users do not access the Internet at a specific place (and time) but anywhere and at anytime, since they are highly mobile with their Smartphones.
- The disruptive usage of Internet-related ICTs all have in common that the content is under control of the user. Even Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook is now not in control of all the produced content on his platform. Although he stays in control of the whole Facebook platform; which is of course another issue to be concerned of. This makes the difference between an email system, which is merely an application and Facebook or Twitter which are social communities of people.
- The spontaneous questions that comes up by most business managers is then: If we can’t control it will the absence of a centralized control mechanism than lead to anarchy and chaos? The answer is definitely no! Millions of people are using social media on a daily basis, in their job, at home and on the road. Although social media seems to have the power to change politics and government, as one could observe during the Arab spring last year, they do not aim at chaos. Chaos is merely a side-effect. And of course there are hackers who try to play their role in the piece, but their roles are extras.
- This brings us to the next condition for an EC to become airborne: the customization and consumerization of IT and the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) to the company. Users today do not depend anymore on IT only available within the boundaries of a company, but can chose to use IT anywhere, at home, at the office and on the road. Tablets, BlackBerries, iPhones, and iPads are becoming commodities at an increasing speed and are capable to support almost every possible application (apps). Access to the Internet by these devices comes in a wide variety of protocols (3G, 4G, WIFI) and at high speeds. These powerful mobile stations drives the users out of the office and out of the organization.
