Idiot Knowledge

Idiot Knowledge

Crunchbase | Website | Twitter | Facebook | Linkedin

Idiot Knowledge is a Digital Interactive Textbook, an open-source educational project aimed at a global educational curriculum. Can we solve our problems? Short answer: No, we cannot.

Long answer: Yes, we certainly can. So many different things affect our lives, almost everyone has ‘something’ to do or finish…it appears as a neverending cycle of turmoil.

Is it a real cycle of turmoil? Or perhaps is it only relative to the onlooker? Is the chaos only relative to the organism looking in, or is chaos apparent in the entirety of the system? This chaos is part of a system; like a hardcoded program. It’s apparent, systems live within systems, distributing information at fantastic speed.

A complex network between these systems causes a dynamic equilibrium, maintained in perpetuity until it is interrupted by a bad actor. Bad actors disperse irrelevant and provocative information throughout the network, causing chaos.

Once achieved harmony from the dynamic equilibrium is shattered, causing ripples throughout varying components of the system. Degradation occurs in the network in sections where the bad actor’s information stockpiles.

Reattaining dynamic equilibrium is a necessity before the system will function properly again: as a whole. A tree can grow after it breaks limbs, although it’s doomed, altered in our perception, forever.
