On the path towards a publication in 2023, this plenary talk for the International Society for the Systems Sciences 66th Annual Meeting came with a preamble. Slides were provided in advance at http://coevolving.com/commons/2022-07-08-appreciating-systems-changes, so that details might be later perused at leisure.
Here is the agenda for the presentation:
| A. Rising interest in System(s) Change(s) | |||
| B. Appreciative Systems (Vickers) | |||
| C1. Philosophy of Architectural Design |
C2. Philosophy of Ecological Anthropology |
C3. Philosophy of Classical Chinese Medicine |
C4. Philosophy of Rhythms |
| D. Methods: Multiparadigm Inquiry, Open Theorizing | |||
| E. Systems Changes via Three Philosophies → Systems Rhythms | |||
| F. Contributions that Systems Rhythms Offer to Systems Changes | |||
A key aim of the presentation was to elevate systems rhythms as central to understanding. With a 60-minute time slot, an expectation was set that progress towards the table on slide 43 (Part E) would be expedited. Flipping rapidly through philosophies of architectural design, ecological anthropology, and Classical Chinese Medicine, slide 43 was reached at 25 minutes. At 44 minutes, questions and comments were welcomed. While other presentations orient more towards theory and pratice (that the audience may not have already encountered), the emphasis for this session was more methodological.
