đŸ“© Invitation to the December 2025 Knowledge‑LAB

Theme: Disruptions :: Where Do We Go From Here ? An Invitation to Co-Construct Understanding Together

Dear colleagues, facilitators, knowledge practitioners, and transformation leaders,

You are warmly invited to participate in our next Knowledge‑LAB, an immersive co‑construction session designed to explore how living systems thinking, cognitive activation, and visual collaboration tools can help us co-create new futures — together.

đŸ§© Context & Framing The Question We Will Explore:

Throughout history, certain inventions have transformed not just what we do, but how we think, work, and relate to one another. From Gutenberg's printing press to artificial intelligence, each disruption has redistributed power, displaced old ways, and created possibilities unimaginable before. Where does the Knowledge-LAB sit in this history? And what disruption comes next?

The Arc of Disruptions:

In preparation for our session, we have traced five great disruptions:

  • The Printing Press (1440) — Multiplied the distribution of ideas. Democratized knowledge. Enabled the Reformation, the Scientific Revolution, and the rise of public opinion.

  • The Industrial Revolution (1760s) — Automated physical labor. Concentrated production in factories. Transformed the relationship between humans and machines.

  • The Personal Computer (1970s) — Placed computational power in individual hands. Inverted the logic of centralized computing. Empowered the knowledge worker.

  • The Internet (1990s) — Connected humanity. Collapsed distance. Disintermediated gatekeepers. Created new economies of attention and information.

  • Artificial Intelligence (2020s) — Automates cognitive tasks. Generates, predicts, decides. Raises questions about what remains uniquely human.

The Knowledge-LAB: A New Disruption?

Each previous disruption extended human capability: reach, strength, calculation, connection. But none addressed the collaborative construction of knowledge itself—how teams build shared understanding together.

The Knowledge-LAB proposes something different:

  • Silence before speech — Think first, together but alone
  • Structure before discussion — Build a knowledge graph, not just a conversation
  • Distributed leadership — Everyone contributes, everyone leads for a moment
  • AI as partner — Augmentation, not replacement
  • Iteration — Knowledge that grows across sessions

This is not merely a tool. It is a methodology for collective cognition.

🌐 Why participate?

This LAB is not a webinar — it is a space of co-creation and reflection, where your insights, practices, and stories will enrich a collective process.

What We Will Do Together Following the Knowledge-LAB programme:

  • Opening Circle — Who is here? What brings you?
  • . Silent Co-Construction — Create bubbles and links in the shared space
  • . Sharing Aloud — Guide us through your contribution with the laser tool
  • . Dialogue with AI — Explore together with AI as thinking partner
  • . Closing Circle — What did you learn? How did it feel?
  • . Synthesis — What emerges from our collective work?

You Are Invited !

You come from different countries, disciplines, and interests. This diversity is not an obstacle—it is the point.

The Knowledge-LAB is designed for extreme teaming: collaboration across distances that would have been impossible before. You will not sit and listen. You will build.

Your bubble matters. Your link reveals something others haven't seen. Your voice will be heard.

It will be especially relevant for:

‱	Team leaders navigating complex transformations
‱	KM professionals designing knowledge flows and visual systems
‱	Facilitators experimenting with AI-human collaboration
‱	Strategic thinkers exploring attention, sovereignty, and adaptive capacity

🛠 What we will do together

‱	Explore visual knowledge maps as living systems
‱	Identify emerging patterns of regeneration and innovation
‱	Build shared language and frameworks across roles and contexts
‱	Experiment with new prompts, metaphors, and collaborative formats
‱	Contribute to the co-creation of a “local noosphere” — our shared field of meaning and potential

📅 Practical Information

Date:

  • Wednesday, December 17, 2025
  • Time: 12:00 noon (New York / Eastern Time)
  • 9:00 AM — Vancouver / Los Angeles

Asynchronous Participation:

If the live session doesn't suit your time zone, you are welcome to participate asynchronously. The knowledge graph remains open—you can add your bubbles and links before or after the live session. Your contribution will be woven into the collective work. The beauty of co-construction is that it transcends time as well as distance.

What You Need:

  • A computer with internet connection.
  • Curiosity.
  • Willingness to participate.

Language: The knowledge graph transcends language barriers—but we will share aloud in English.
