Abstract

Transformative personal growth is explored through use of advanced forms of virtual learning and application of concepts from systems thinking, presence research, and Transdisciplinarity. The result is a practice of a technology-enabled, embodiment of hope. When thriving is likely, the implications of increased individual and collective consciousness enables development of a fusion of Gemeinschaft and Gesselschaft. The harmonization of such a fusion of community and society creates a new form of society, where space, place, and relationships interact like a blended urban village. As communities shift to incorporate and extend the Arts and culture in this new Society, complexity is appreciated from its reciprocity with Nature. Awareness of selfhood and society is more integrated through Being providing new possibilities to co-create the future and transcend human limitations.
