Liquid Democracy
www.liquiddemocracy.org

Liquid Democracy is the combination of
networks and democracy.
It is a term or metaphor, designed to
capture a more ﬂuid and responsive
participation of citizens in the democratic
process.

Votes ﬂow through networks of trusted
relationships.
In this way a range of types of “delegation” can be
created, from forms we are familiar with such as
conventional representative democracy, to ﬂuid
parties and direct democracy.

Delegation
Trust

create new voluntary organisation
! set the name of new organisation to "Open Democracy Kickstarter"
! set the aims of this organisation to url "www.liquiddemocracy.org/aims.html"
! set the voting style to "liquid"
! ! set the dispute resolution style to "acas"
! ! set the voting period to 3 days
! modify new membership policy
! ! set the voting style for new members to "no objections"

The Real Problems
1. Institution won’t invest in software
2. No users
• The software is easy
• Requires good design team
• Real budget
• User Aquisition is harder, and more expensive

What if?
• !7.5 billion
• Democratic infrastructure
• Local engagement
• Global Crisis
• International Institutions

Good News
• We’ve found some money
• Open Democratic Backend
• Open Source Mobile framework
• Democracy Kickstarter
• Workshops starting August

Pilots
• SciTopia
• Pocket Parliament
• GameRaid
• Sunday Workshops starting August

So, if it’s to succeed in its overarching mission,
it’s architecture, foundations and its outer limits
must also be open – by default.

Without this, the impact of Government’s investment
in the Open Institute and Tech City, more broadly, is
liable to be highly circumscribed.

HOWCANEVERYONE
GAINACCESSTOTHE
OPENINSTITUTE?

Build upon the ﬁne grain of long established local institutions,
harness the can-do and know-how of Tech City communities,
and translate that via a truly open infrastructure so that
innovation, services and growth can beneﬁt everyone.

In short, it should...
Provide access to 100% open, symmetrical
and hybrid networking hardware
Encourage and enable civic engineering
Stimulate participation in MOOCs juxtaposed
broad-ranging Community Publishing initiatives
– knowledge consumption as well as production

The plan...
Plan A – a bespoke Local Area Network
Plan B – a community owned and managed WAN for Tech City
Plan C – affordable WWW access for all founded upon EITHER
- collaborative consumption principles (shared corporate connections)
- an open ISP capable of wholesale backbone access, group hardware
purchasing and installation support on a social enterprise footing -
subsidised by corporate SR contributions

WHO?WHERE?WHEN?
How will we know if it succeeds?
Is it capable of generating a social,
economic and environmental return?

HOWOPEN(ORLIMITED)
AREYOURAMBITIONS?
ANNEMARIENAYLOR
@COMMONFUTRS

...its scale and openness should only be limited
by the ambition of its many civic engineers.

Digital Disruption; http://www.slideshare.net/fredgarnett/we-are-digital
We need open participatory education like
Summerhill school and the Democratic schools
movement. But only 53 democratic schools exist
in Europe
Disruptive Collaboration is here, the web is a
platform, users-generate content, mobile phone
cameras document everything, new technology is
sold as being creative, but it hasn’t disrupted
educational institutions.

Next 2021; http://heutagogicarchive.wordpress.com/next-2021/
NIACE were formed in the UK calling for
education for all, from which educational
broadcasting, with the BBC, emerged
Kondratieff in Moscow, wrote about long-wave
economic change (50 years) based around
‘meta-technologies’ Our meta-technology, the
micro-processor is due to reach its
transformational peak in 2021

Intel 4004; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_4004
Convergence; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_convergence/
Intel 4004 was a new meta-technology.
Earlier meta-technologies had evolved into new
analogue networks; rail, road, air, telephone, radio
with their own system ‘mission’
Digital technologies however can also replace
earlier analogue technologies, and enable
technological convergence. Convergence is far
more socially transformational as it can disrupt
existing economic patterns built around old
technologies

Creative Commons; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons
The Royal Society was formed in the UK
beginning the movement for open publishing.
The standard by which scientific thought has
(mostly) developed, egos aside, ever since.
Creative Commons applied the idea of open
publishing to the copyright era in 2001, enabling
web-based sharing of content, like this

The Internet Society wrote its mission
“We envision a future in which people in all parts of
the world can use the Internet to improve their quality
of life, because standards, technologies, business
practices, and government policies sustain an open
and universally accessible platform for innovation,
creativity, and economic opportunity”
As Ted Nelson had predicted with Xanadu (1960) Tim
Berners-Lee finally invented the World Wide Web &
digital convergence became possible online.

Emergent Learning Model http://www.slideshare.net/fredgarnett/fg-ouemergenttable
Learning is Emergent not institutionalised! We need
to design for emergence and create tools to support
that in a wiki-based collaborative world
Emergent Learning Model rethinks learning as
i. Social Processes not classrooms
ii. Content Creation or Curation not textbooks
iii. Quality Assurance not high-stakes assessment
We needed to build new learning exemplars of ‘non-
linear dynamic systems’

Being Insanely Ambitious we decided to test
emergent learning by turning Manchester into an
open Ambient Learning City. Cities have many more
learning contexts than a single classroom, so we
decided to test them with MOSI-ALONG
MOSI Ambient Learning Open Network Group
Aggregate then Curate our new #socialmedia
participation model creating structured ways for
people to inter-act with their city; even during riots (A
History of Manchester in 100 objects)

“social-space time / occupation as learning”
I was then asked to help create a Masters course for
graduating UCL students

Community of Scholars was the common theme.
The action point was “solve the problem…

Accreditation of learning annoyed us most

July 8 2013 by @fredgarnett
Any University can open a WikiQuals Open Learning Lab. It is
a platform for learning that a) leverages content abundance,
allows b) learner-generated contexts & purpose c) enables
emergent & innovative learning behaviours.
Needs just;
1 Space a room one afternoon a week (or more)
2 Access to Learning Resources (& estates)
3 Affinity Partners discuss & guide, create affinity groups
Any institution can open a WikiQuals Open Learning Lab it is
about providing a generative platform
Please help WikiQuals grow up and leave home…
