People come alive: it seems so simple, child’s play. It is not…
In human space we see people “come alive” when they are working together. This seems so simple, like child’s play. But it is not. It is profound, and nearly invisible. To get people to work together, get people together working. Working on what they love.
The group becomes cohesive, coherent: a single organism, bigger than the sum of its parts, with new qualities. A clock is more than a collection of springs and gears. Yet what happens in humans, and maybe all of space, is of another quality beyond this: it is not a product of organizing done by an outside agent (in the case of the clock, a brain); each individual is made larger, has more living aspects, and each of these intensifies the other organisms it is part of and touches.
