Description:
Using a complexity perspective, QLectives was a research project to understand, experiment with, design and build cooperative socially intelligent ICT systems composed of self-organising peers, that enable and support emergent “quality collectives” to enhance, for instance, scientific innovation and decentralized media distribution.
