Thanks Gregg, Waldemar, it’s a pleasure to be part of this list.

I hope those of you who have listened or watched some of the discussion below found value in it.

I have appreciated much of the sharing in this community over the recent weeks. It strikes there are significant insights held by members here to be sourced and incorporated into a collective conduit for the deepening of questions and broader projects of mutual growth and learning. 

It seems more and more the case that the ethics and artfulness of generative communication—perhaps, a right relation of dialogical collective intelligence, or movement of understanding—is of paramount importance as we orient in this clearing.. joint point.. eye of the storm.. liminal.. pivot point.. etc.

To that end I am particularly interested in helping to co-navigate such interactions.

If such words spark a grounded interest I hope you will reach out and inquire further. And, otherwise, I look forward to participating in what ways present as appropriate in this list.

Wishing you all very well, and thank you for the discussion.

Tim Adalin

I was struck that by that interview (so was Hall at times 😊), and could immediately tell Tim was the real deal when it came to understanding the leading edge of culture. We hooked up and did a podcast together and it was a blast.
