What is a Complexicon?
A complexicon is a play on words that combines the many dimensions and meanings of complexity with a specific lexicon, a subset of vocabulary.
The goal of building a shared lexicon of complexity is to grow and support the study of complexity.
Complexity Mindsets
You've probably heard of different types of mindsets. People who believe that they can continue to learn and change their minds are often referred to as having a growth mindset.
There are many types of mindsets from scarcity mindsets, to entrepreneurial mindsets. The Complexicon Project, however, is focused on the traits and experiences of people who want to understand more about and grow their complexity mindset.
What's Going on in the Soft Launch of Project Complexicon... and How can you Help?
Interaction is critical to building the Complexicon. Check out the Quizard, which will be regularly updated with questions that explore how people think about what it means for something to be simple, complicated, and/or complex.
The blog page offers some food for thought with options to share your ideas and questions.
Building triptychs - a trio of images - is in the early stages of design. These triptychs, like the one on the home page, provide another way to interact with the myriad dimensions of complexity.
