WAYSHAPING

This work develops a theory of change that is aligned with embodied cognitive science and complexity theory, and draws on insights from these and related fields to inform habit, identity, and narrative change at different scales

SENSE-MAKING FRAMES

This work theorises the nature and evolution of new habits and identities from an embodied cognition perspective.

PARTICIPATORY FRAMES

This work theorises how shared habits, identities and narratives emerge in recurrent situated social interactions. It provides some justification for how social systems acquire adaptive capacities.

MULTI-SCALE HEALTH

This work conceives health and disorder as a multiscale phenomena and looks at the dynamics underlying healthy systems at any scale, e.g., from cell to organisations, to economies.

DIGITAL TACT

This work theorises the mediation of social interactions in virtual environments and how insights from embodied cognitive science can inform the design of these environments and our practices therein to increase the sense of social connection we experience online.

NOISE

This work explores the generative role of noise (shocks, perturbations, disruptions, dissonance, awkwardness) in living systems at different scales. The basic thesis is that noise can support multiscale realignments and be used in service of positive transformation.
