Project: What happened to nature?
Every molecule, atom, in our body... is self-interested... is self-aware, and determined as such.
All healthy systems self-organize, and maintain themselves by the same principals.
Thus, when everything is self-interested, as in Nature, negotiations come into play... which results in collaboration, co-creation, and a positive participation in the human experience.
all parts enjoying each other immensely
Dr. Elisabet Sahtouris, Evolut Biologist, Greece/USA. She speaks beautifully on these subjects of sustainability/biomimicry/collaboration/gaia.

some notes to self :
+ The idea of Holarchy (or, Whole-archy)
Autopoesis
"An autopoietic machine is a machine organized (defined as a unity) as a network of processes of production (transformation and destruction) of components which: (i) through their interactions and transformations continuously regenerate and realize the network of processes (relations) that produced them; and (ii) constitute it (the machine) as a concrete unity in space in which they (the components) exist by specifying the topological domain of its realization as such a network." – Humberto Maturana
+ Self-interest is a good thing... as along as it is contained within the self-interest of a community
