This is the crisis of Western
paradigms
The
world is not only big and complex, it
has paradoxically become narrower.
The distance to the other can no longer
be maintained. This phenomenon is
intricate and, above all, subtle. And it
makes itself felt as an unpleasant
feeling. No matter how much one wants to
secure a distance to the world by taking
backward steps. You don't succeed. The
world - that is suddenly me...

This flooding with images and
information, news - this demands and
causes our participation in the world.
And it is difficult to escape this
incorporation.
Images not only
awaken dreams that are not ours, they
also appeal to our emotions. In most
cases, the account number of a relief
organisation is also written under the
picture. Please help!! Show solidarity!
Yes - show solidarity - in everyday
life, with your neighbours, in the old
people's home around the corner. This
could become swarm behaviour.
The
swarm
theory has found out that the
individual fish or bird only
concentrates on its immediate neighbours
and orients itself according to them in
its own behaviour.
The individual
fish/bird does not know the big picture
at all. It makes the same decision as
its neighbours.
This reads
dangerously like followership - but
this flocking behaviour is actually
based on only a few laws.
In general,
starlings, for example, keep at least
one wing span distance from each other.
A change in direction of the flock is
not necessarily decided at the head of
the flock. Each individual can cause a
change of direction, and the whole flock
reorganises itself as a result. This has
the advantage that it prevents always
following only one "leader". Extreme
behaviour can thus be avoided, because
the individual can take his own path,
which other direct members follow - a
movement that becomes larger and larger
and can thus prevent the whole swarm
from "disadvantageous" behaviour.
Advantage of swarm behaviour is shown
when approaching predators, because here
the swarm condenses to make it more
difficult to target an individual and
attack the enemy specifically.
In
birds, sometimes even the bird of prey
is so enclosed by the flock that it has
to drop down unable to fly.
A dilemma!
