Introduction:
Before describing the #Roadmap2025 for SEGN.org, I would like to introduce the featured image by citing the description:
“A busy scene of a futuristic and magical village in a tropical jungle. The village is filled with geometric and intricate structures, illuminated by hundreds of tiny lights. The atmosphere is cyberpunk and clockpunk, with elements of archeology. The jungle is lush with mushrooms, nightlights, leafy forests, and electric flowers. There are various creatures and humans, and the village is surrounded by cascading waterfalls, a reflective river, and ivy-covered vines. The scene is filled with rising mist, mossy winding stone steps, and glowing lights. The style is reminiscent of artists like Roger Dean, Alan Lee, and Moebius, with cinematic lighting and a wide-angle perspective.” (Source: https://snipstock.com/futuristic-magical-village-in-jungle-with-cyberpunk-elements/)
I wil return to this topic later on in the article, but just to give a visual guideline to where this is going.
#Roadmap2025 – @segn_org
SEGN.org becomes ThinkTank and request for reactivation of GSEN
In my last post ( I wasn’t clear about GSEN, therefore I would like to clarify “adding” the “idea” of reactivation of the GSEN network was what I actually meant.
The “Global Social Entrepreneurship Network” is a discontinued project, as of today (18-03-2025), there is still a post with a project description: https://socialenterprisebsr.net/2016/02/the-global-social-entrepreneurship-network-gsen.
However, it was officially announced “discontinued” May 11th, 2021: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/farewell-from-gsen-sharing-our-journey-anna-chojnicka/.
It’s a pitty the project GSEN was discontinued, especially in times like these. As for now, GSEN.info will simply inform that there existed such a great project, and hope for reactivation, when time and situation is supportive.
As for this project, SEGN.org, which started out as a study project in a workshop on Social Entrepreneruship, it will be evolving into a ThinkTank, simply giving ideas to what NGOs can do, scientifically and OpenSource. If a university, individual or other organization shows interest in the ideas, pronounced on this site, you/they are welcome to contact the team lead at: team (at) segn.org.
Finally, I’d like to give thanks to and show my appreciation for the work at the university of Kiel, especially Dr. Frauke Godat, and the course, I attended in 2020:
“Social Entrepreneurship – How can I change the world?
Social entrepreneurs are creating a new economic sector globally. Social entrepreneurs are entrepreneurs who address societal challenges in an entrepreneurial way. A growing number of these entrepreneurs have a background in the social sciences. This seminar will give you an insight into the vocational field and to develop first project ideas in this area. The seminar will be in held in English once international students sign-up.” (Source: https://www.perle.uni-kiel.de/de/studierende/berufsorientierung/veranstaltungen/social-entrepreneurship)
Other courses are also offered, fx in 2024 “Think global, act local – the Inner Development Goals in practice”, and there is a Master program “Sustainability”.
As for the #Roadmap2025, I will be concentrating on study, research and publishing, also implementing AI into the work.
… as we enter the Technitá(s)cene and proposal of InMotio as a new philosophy
Furthermore, there will be a launch of a new philosophy, coaching method soon, enabling people to become healthier, cope with several issues, including depression, and lack of motivation. It will be combining different methods and philosophies, Taiji, YingYang, Zen, Mindfulness, and look into establishing a Link between psychotherapy and theatre/psyhodrama/film/acting techniques.
I call it InMotio, which is a word deriving from “moveo” [Latin: “movement, to move, set in motion”], with prefix “in-“, translating to “in movement”, which refers to the Life Energy “Chi”, and being “in contact with it [yoga= connection] or as in Yoda: “use the force”.
It also has connotations to “immotio”, deriving from “immotus”:
immotus: [lat.]: a, um, Adj, <in-2, P.P.P. von moveo< (unkl.)
1. unbewegt; unbeweglich, ruhig;
dies i. windstiller Tag; i.a re vor etwas. geschützt;
2. fig. ungestört; pax immota ungestörter Friede;
3. unerschütterlich, sicher, fest;
4. unerschüttert, ungerührt; animus i. ungerührter Geist.
[Source: Langescheidts Großes Schulwörterbuch Lateinisch-Deutsch,
2001, Langenscheidt KG, Berlin und München.]
This again alludes to the word “halcyonic” from “Halcyonic Winds”, Nietzsche’s favourite word, which also stands for stillness, bliss, a state of peace and contentment.
I plan the launch sometime in April, 2025 on InMotio.org, this post is like a sneak preview.
In case you are have read this far, and want to know more about the coinage of the word “Technitá(s)cene, “The Age of Artificialities”, as I coined the era succeeding the Antropocene and Symbiocene, you can my essays on the topic at:
https://uni-kiel.academia.edu/DorianBøyesen
The “(s)” refers to a great article/project called https://symbioscene.com/, which should be the aim, as this (idealistic) period, is definitely woth striving for.
Me, being a sort of romantic realist, with a lot of imagination, I see there are prehaps several diametral opposite, post-modern, paralell strings of development, or nodes, developing, one of them being an Antropocene, another Symbiocene, and a vast amount of artificial compounds, or rather, artefacts, that have begun reproducing. this means, we’re at the verve of an era, where content is either generated by prompts, or, more crucially, dialogues between AI agents have begun, which could resemble the beginning of a Matrix-like scenario.
I can’t quite recall, where I saw it, but it might have been in a course called “Future Skills”, and it was a modification of the famous “StarWars” intro (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGsKzZtRwxw), and essentially depicted a scenario, where AI had established whole cities, or Hubs, and where at war with (still-)human-controlled cities, a sort of pre_matrix-style futuristic scenario.
If I remember correctly, a part of the course was on Storytelling, lead by Robert Redweik, but I will have to re-check with him, as I do not have access any more to the Future Skills course at EDX https://learning.edx.org/course/course-v1:seakademieX+FutureSkills2020+2T2020.
Anyway, this StarWars-into made an impression on me, and even though I am retelling the scenario without any guarantee or liability, as it is just out of my memory, I wanted to exemplify, what kind of scenarios the Technitá(s)cene could include, the coinage of the word deriving from Greek technitás or technitó = artificialities.
The film Ghost in the Shell has a similar scenario, by the way, and was also subject to criticism, because it is based on the Japanese anime Ghost in the Shell by Masamune Shirow.
This quite accurately describes, what I imagine as an (almost) current state Technitá(s)cene, so if this where a Greek drama, we would be in the Act I, not yet knowing whether it will be a Comedy or Tragedy, depending on the ending.
Wow, that is actually a cool plot idea, and I will continue writing on this, and call the drama The Time is Up or Die Zeit ist um, with reference to Les jeux sont faits by Paul sartre (English title: The Chips Are Down or German title: Das Spiel ist aus.
Well, so much for the #Roadmap2025.
Stay tuned!
