Jeff Emmett

Hello! 👋🍄

My research investigates the intersection of mycelium and emancipatory technologies. I am interested in the potential of new convivial tooling as a medium for group consensus building and collective action, in order to empower communities of practice to address their own challenges.

My current focus is basic research into the nature of digital organisation, developing prototype toolkits to improve shared infrastructure, and applying this research to the design of new systems and protocols which support the self-organisation of knowledge and emergent response to local needs.

My work

Alongside my independent work, I am a researcher and engineering communicator at Block Science, an advisor to the Active Inference Lab, Commons Stack, and the Trusted Seed. I am also an occasional collaborator with{" "} ECSA.
