last time here, I spoke about world changing traits we could adopt

this time, it’s a message about something we

already have

but let’s start at the beginning

we are here to discuss and discover, our passions and inspirations,

enabled by mobilised technology

we will be challenged, as will the technology we rely on for delivery of

our ideas

we will challenge ourselves

our experiences, social influences, and decision making processes, will all be working over-time

under the surface, our brains are operating many conflicting systems, all arguing and collaborating in real-time, like a silent committee

we will challenge technology

throughout the history of MLOVE, the thinking shared has tended to require mobilised technology to behave in a

more human way

however, as David Eagelmen recently said in Wired, technology tends to be composed

of dictatorial hierarchies, specialised systems that are too polite to argue

it is unlike our democratic architecture, the 'team of rivals' we have in our brain

so, we will face challenges within ourselves due to internal conflict, and challenges with technology, due to it’s

lack of conflict

now, something core toevery single one of us

Martin Nowak, talks about how a particular behaviour is fundamental in the development of mankind

cooperation

cooperation is the process of working or acting together, which can be accomplished by both intentional and non-intentional agents

in its simplest form it involves things working in harmony, side by side, while in its more complicated forms, it can involve something as complex as the inner workings of a human being or even the social patterns of a nation

it is the alternative to working separately in competition

Nowak shows that evolution is dependent on a high degree of selflessness

as Edith Wharton said, “you can either be the candle, or the mirror that reflects it”

to some, Darwin's realisations of “the survival of fittest”, could be interpreted

as a proxy for un-cooperative behaviour, but actually the “fittest” part is now proven to be “fitness in

cooperating successfully”

we are literally built to be super cooperators

as humans, our survival is critically dependent on our appetite for cooperation

the question is, will we cooperate, or will we destroy ourselves by

failing to do so?

the opportunity here, is to use our in-built human capability, in harmony with each other, and with cooperative technology

that’s what MLOVE means to me

hence my passion picture is tattooed on my arm. harmony.

I have faith we can inspire each other here, to work and

play together productively, and I challenge us all to

harmoniously cooperate

after the last plane has left, the castle is empty, and the fire has gone out, I urge you

all to continue cooperating, and to spread the behaviour to everyone you can

"The only thing that will redeem

mankind is cooperation"

Bertrand Russell
