Spiral Dynamics Stage Yellow Examples Mega-Thread

The first one is more of an introduction into how this technology works and it's  being currently developed. 

While the second one is a very in-depth discussion into the societal, philosophical and existential implications that this technology would imply for us humans

In this video, you guys will see a lot of references from the Spiral Dynamics model. 

What he basically did was summarize all the issues from Tier 1, and then propose and alternative solution to it, which, in this case, consists in a more "wholistic" and integral view of reality,  in the context of social structure.

Hard to get more Yellow than this. More like Yellow/Turquoise.

Leo does a great job of explaining why it is so important for all men collectively to get good at attracting women. 

This is a good example of stage yellow because Leo is looking at the problems with these guys from a zoomed out scope and is giving advice in order to help humanity at large. He hopes that this advice will help all men get laid more and as a result cause less suicides, less shootings, and ultimately happier more fulfilled men. 

"Helping these guys meet these needs is imperative for the health of society." This is a great stage yellow quote from Leo.

This guys explanation is almost Gura-ian.

A very nuanced and unbiased analysis of the situation. 

This is the kind of process one have to go through when doing system thinking, specially in a dense topic, with many ramifications such as this one.

"Many of us become designers because we are not satisfied with the state we see the world in. We genuinely want to solve problems and fix things, make things work better, or be beautiful, make the world a better place, or be able to make people look at something from a different angle. In this pursuit we often get caught up in existing systems and power structures and end up overlooking those ‘dangers or deficiencies’ or worse creating that solution to the problem; a ‘seamless’ solution or system for everyone else, that hides knowledge of what really went into making their product or service, what the real state of some system might be."

"It might be a bit disconcerting for people if they could actually understand where all of the different pieces of the world which they interact with every day really come from and how their actions impact other systems."

 

a very interesting article,  by which she shows some of the principles and thinking process of early vMEME Yellow:

-Tier 2 view on how her work as a designer impacts people and society

-a lot of analysis by her in order to get away from common sense thinking, by which she calls "Complacency"

The adjustment and/or application of new technologies, in a society that is constantly evolving like ours, requires a vMEME Yellow level of thinking, in order to fully actualize it.

I have only one objection with regard to this analysis:

- the population aging might be a problem to our workforce only if we consider our current model of development.

but,  given the fact that A.I is spreading more and more into workplace, requiring less and less workers to make the same tasks and having the same results, and these projections being somewhere around 50-70 years into the future, so maybe, within that new paradigm, this age gap might come across as being very advantageous.

This could be extrange for many of you as long as I´m mentioning someone from a third world country, but Jaime Garzón was for me a colombian yellow stage thinker, he was awesome and played characters from many other stages to help colombian people wake up. He was assassined precisely because of his vision and power.

 

 

Esto podría ser extraño para muchos de ustedes en la medida que menciono a alguien de un país del tercer mundo, pero Jaime Garzón fue para mí un pensador colombiano de etapa amarilla, fue increíble y interpretó personajes de muchas otras etapas para ayudar a la gente colombiana a despertar. Fue asesinado precisamente por su visión y poder.
