Gotham Innovation Greenhouse
The Gotham Innovation Greenhouse is a new kind of „Think Studio‰. Where a „Think Tank‰ would publish policy research papers, we will produce new scenarios, designs, proofs-of-concept, visualizations, and software tools. Our purpose is to develop new tools and practices to augment the creative capacity and effectiveness of groups, from project teams to communities and societies. 1. Augmented Collaboration: next-generation ways and means for creative groups, interdisciplinary to inter-sectoral; 2. Deep Social Media: the same, at the scale of New Soft Cities; 3. Future-making: developing alternative scenarios. The G.I.G. will serve as a gathering place, a laboratory, a showcase, and (as the model is proven and adopted worldwide), a network node. http://gothaminnovationgreenhouse.com/...
