Learning to Coexist
When we all coexist with a common framework for organising life, what kind of structure leads to the best outcome for everyone?
One universal algorithm
Is it possible to reduce the primary functions of a society into a simple and intuitive platform we can all use?
Imagine if we could control all the basic economic and political functions using the same simple interface — a platform that ensures no one is economically exploited or politically disenfranchised, and is built and operated collectively: a neutral, co-owned infrastructure stewarded by all who take part.
This is the vision behind Coexist.
The purpose of the platform is to maximize human well-being within planetary boundaries. It does so by coupling the free market and democratic governance with the internet age. And it's not just a vision either — it's already being built.
What made it possible is science. By studying economic and political activity through the lens of natural and formal sciences, we uncovered the fundamental building blocks of our society and its institutions. The economy, at its core, is simply a set of metabolic processes operating at various scales. As in all living organisms, societal metabolism consists of both anabolic and catabolic flows. Production is anabolic. Consumption is catabolic. When we internalise its nature, the workings of the economy become much easier to grasp, and can be boiled down to a dashboard we all can use to organise our lives on Earth.
To explore our prospect furter, read the full book available for free on this site (navigation on the left), or order the paperback or audiobook here. It lays out the logic and blueprint for what we’re building. If you prefer just to show your support or feel the calling to contribute you can do so here.
We have lots to do, and it would be an honor to have you on board.
