What you are presenting is a shift from a closed to an open system. Some talk about “embracing the chaos”, but chaos without a model is not terribly useful. When all creation and innovation is digital, such a model becomes increasingly desirable.

The actors being flung about in the eddys reflect the subjective experience of parallel continuous innovation cycles in an environment of continuous partial attention. I think about the recombinant nature of talent, ideas and IP in such an innovation model. Where does the talent lie to fulfill these roles in place and over time?

Thanks a lot for this – so much food for thought!
