I have worked with some of the world’s largest firms on design-led product invention using new technology for over 20 years. I was MD of two London startup accelerators with R/GA Ventures, and co-founder and CEO of pioneering design studio BERG, where we shipped connected products and got work into the New York MoMA.

Sometimes the most exciting discoveries happen by accident. While reading this thoughtful field report from GainForest https://lnkd.in/eihbfggg, I was reminded why I've been so impressed by the way they approach their work. Their commitment to accompanying community-based partners and building place-appropriate frameworks feels deeply aligned with the kind of infastructure many of us in bioregional work are striving for. Curious, I headed over to their website and interactive globe and zoomed into my own bioregion. Right there in Puerto Jiménez was a pin. I clicked to see which organization was connected to GainForest—and discovered it was us, Los Higuerones Opening the profile (see the screenshot below), I had one of those wonderful "aha" moments. Not only was it beautifully presented, but I realized the information had been pulled directly from our MaEarth project profile. Then another piece of the puzzle clicked into place: both MAEarth and GainForest are part of the HyperCerts Certified ecosystem. I thought to myself….This is what a truly networked movement does. It's more than interoperability between platforms. It's infrastructure for trust, visibility, and connection. It allows organizations doing meaningful local work to be discovered, recognized, and linked into a broader ecosystem in a way that is does not put a burden on the grassroots partners to make ourselves legible. And this sense of support is also what we experienced throughout the first 21 days of July—motivated, accompanied, and reflected as we engaged in the @Ma earth crowdfunding campaign Huge appreciation to Holke Brammer, @certified, Matthew Monahan and Ma Earth , GainForest.Earth team, and everyone building these interconnected systems. Thank you for creating the kind of infrastructure that strengthens credibility while supporting the people doing the work on the ground. This is the kind of network our bioregions need…stregnthening trust and collaboration within, between and among.🙏.
Developing creative identity
I was a theoretical physicist from 1992 to 2007. It was a romantic activity, exploring the fundamental nature of the cosmos! I became a university professor, wrote papers and books, and got to explore some of the most beautiful ideas ever discovered. In parallel, I also developed a fascination with the social systems humanity uses to make knowledge. Systems like the university or peer review are immensely deep inventions: our discovery system is itself one of the great inventions of humanity! But I believed a radically better discovery system must be possible. I became obsessed with this idea, eventually giving up tenure to work on it1. My first big project was to write a book helping develop and spread the fundamental ideas underlying the modern open science movement.

I got into tech six years ago because I figured I could have an outsized impact on making a less harmful, more empowering world for workers and marginalised people. Only this year, I started connecting IRL with people who think this way. Here I tried to write about the ways that's transformed me.

meri.gardenI'm incredibly honored to be one of the inaugural winners of the Ctrl-Z award. The sequence of events preceding and following this retraction were harrowing (and are honestly still stressful), but I hope this will be an opportunity for more open dialogue about mistakes + self-retraction in science.
