Ep. 570: Embracing the Infinite Game – Skinner Layne and Moritz Bierling (Part 1 of 3)

Skinner is the founder of Exosphere Academy and Moritz, formerly the Director of Research, now serves as an advisor. Exosphere Academy is a learning and problem solving community with 2-day traveling workshops and an 8-week residential program "to learn new skills, build exciting projects with other dynamic people, and jumpstart your new life & career."

In our previous discussion we talked about how to build institutions and movements in education that become un-ignorable, desirable and perhaps even increasingly irresistible alternatives to the failing systems. Today we’ll expand beyond education to creating real markets for information, as an alternative to the "technological communism" we have today.

DISCUSSION:
– Developing the mindset for playing the infinite game
– Why people prefer to play finite games, and why they’re also sometimes attracted to fascism
– Why we need to play finite games too
– Why we can’t live in a world where everyone plays the infinite game
– Establishing the boundaries between leisure and work
– The Vaxios Project – a vision for the future of social media and information
– Jaron Lanier and understanding the dangers of the current social media design
– Marketing has corrupted many people’s ability to use language effectively
Idolatry and visual programming
