Seeds of Renaissance
Cultural-civilisational renewal project including narrative, events, and movement-building — the rebranded and relaunched Second Renaissance.
Seeds of Renaissance
Purpose and current context
An enduring initiative for cultural and civilisational renewal, including narrative, events and movement-building — the rebranded identity for what was previously tracked here as Second Renaissance. The roadmap covers the rebrand/rollout/launch programme; lip-42k is the existing rebrand programme epic.
Strategy (level 1, draft, paused): seeds-of-renaissance/strategy.md: purpose, arms, visitor journey, audiences, measures. The website's role (level 2) is in sor-website docs/site-brief.md.
Structure (2026-09-25 consolidation, refined same day)
Rather than tracking every Seeds of Renaissance sub-effort as its own initiative file, most concrete work is grouped into two content/practice areas:
- Media House — the media/content arm. Its own children: Podcast & YouTube, Courses, Magazine, Publications (Book & White Papers), and Social Media, each promoted to its own file once it outgrew a list entry; plus the Content Publishing project (not an initiative), website and newsletters listed as notes.
- Gardens of Change (Community) — the community arm, renamed to make that explicit and absorbing the old, redundant Seeds of Renaissance Community record. Its own children: Calls & Catalysts, Events (paused) and Topical Groups; plus Community Chat (formerly Online Community) and 2R Art Collective.
Plus:
- Life Guild — paused, kept for history.
This consolidation reflects real-world state as of 2026-09-25: several of the imported Tao sub-initiatives (2R Festival, 2RCon, the old newsletter, individual course/event listings, AI Sense-Making) had no independent tracked activity and are either folded into a grouping file above, dropped entirely, or kept as their own record only where something concrete and inactive is worth preserving a link to.
