I use the word "statism" as in a culture, which can be studied the way a bacteria culture in a petri dish can be studied, so rather than metaphor, an actual culture, a meme pool. The environment in which a culture grows shapes it, for example, when ancient greece collapsed, the information and science which were contained within that meme pool could not be processed by the Roman Empire, which was more centralized and therefore had a culture that was defined by limitations, box-like-thinking, and that resulted in for example Ptolemys' epicycle model of the solar system.

My vision with project Resilience^[1], and the transaction-web, is a form of culture that is defined by possibility rather than limitations, similar to the past decades internet culture.
