What is Win-Win?
Win-Win is a philosophy of abundance for these absurd times.
As technology gets more powerful and exciting, so do the corresponding stakes of our civilizational game. And like any good game, the end-bosses get tougher too. To guarantee ourselves a free, awesome and self-sustaining future, we need to unlock a new paradigm of being. We must build fantastic new systems of relating to one another and the world around us.
Win-Win is a path to help us do that. It starts by questioning some of our most fundamental assumptions: can you redesign a system from within? Are omni-win outcomes even possible when people have conflicting preferences? What does “winning” even look like in a world where the concept of “defeat” ceases to be meaningful? These are just some of many dilemmas Win-Win seeks answers to.
One thing is certain: if we want to keep civilization going, we need designers who are willing and able to step beyond its current parameters and actively design the next stage of it.
So don’t hate the players, change the game.
