“We are heading to what looks like an imminent global social and environmental collapse. We think this is not so much due to lack of money, skills, technologies or even political targets, but lack of imagination.” The Emergence Room

Hosted by the Emergence Room, Demos Helsinki, and Untitled Alliance, the Experiment Attractor Programme aims to significantly alter the course humanity is on by gathering movements around bold ideas.

Kiley Arroyo of the CSC served as one of five inaugural fellows in this program. As a fellow she refined the design of a new adaptive leadership ventured rooted in the practice of soil keeping and intercultural approaches to transformational change.

Afterwards, she was invited to join the Emergence Room faculty and share her transformational change framework with the latest cohort of global fellows.

Additional participants in this groundbreaking program were:

• Y-Foundation – Home with community income, biodiversity, and support for zero-carbon lifestyles
• Bianca Wylie & Matthew Claudel – Operationalizing the Commons
• MiklagardArts  & Studio Kalleinen – Breaking Through the Sugar Glass 
• Dark Matter Labs & Climate-KIC – Trees as Infrastructure

Emergence Room is a collaborative space for emergent initiatives that address deep structural transition, initiated by Dark Matter Labs, MaRS Innovation and the McConnell Foundation.

Demos Helsinki is a globally operating, independent think tank. We conduct research, offer consultancy services, and reimagine and experiment futures with a global alliance, Untitled.  

UNTITLED’s purpose is to collectively re-imagine the society, set the agenda for the most important experiments and execute them together.
