int/haven (in person)

A weekend-long write-a-thon, inspired by events like inkhaven. A space to support anyone interested in integral altruism to write stuff that feels alive in them. This is also intended to seed activity on the in-construction ‘int/a forum’, an experimental forum where new ideas on the intersection of wisdom and effectiveness can emerge. We encourage the writing to be on int/a topics! Feel free to follow what’s alive for you, but here are some suggestions of directions to go in: Synthesising paradigms: Compare or combine ideas from EA and liminal web or wisdom traditions. Take an EA idea and make it wise, take a liminal idea and make it effective, or combine or compare. Putting principles into practice: Take one of the (currently abstract) int/a principles and try to make it concrete and action-guiding for a specific decision, e.g. a career choice, a funding call, a community norm. Concrete problems in the metacrisis: Propose a project, research direction, or career advice that brings us closer to solving the metacrisis. Tentative format: ⏱️10:00-18:00 GMT each day 🌅Saturday: connecting and writing together 📨Sunday: giving and integrating feedback, then posting on the int/a forum (& optionally elsewhere) 🌐 This in-person version will run in-tandem with an online version 📌 Location TBC in London (non-residential) Apply by registering above (not everyone who applies is guaranteed a spot)
