Mimoa is a relatively small community which is used to upload basic information about modern architecture all over the world. Their database is expanded daily and can be used in a number of ways. For example, people can create a guide with architecture they would like to see. These guides are also available to others, so more people can benefit from it. This is one of the many ways an online community can work together to organize activities which are of use to others as well.

' Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. '

This is exactly what we are trying to achieve, however with a totally different scope. We specialize on our small community within the Faculty of Architecture; the MSc1 Hyperbody atoms 'world' including their links to teachers, actors and other necessary sources.

By matching students, teachers, experts, atoms and others, these actors can help each other reach their design goals most effectively. Like a dating site, this platform tries to connect the different users in order to make a better understanding and ulimately better designs. A direct goal is to make visable what is out there to 'date'. What are the other atoms like and what are their strengths and weaknesses? With this knowledge we try making groups from different atoms easier and more flexible. Maybe one atom like to work partitially with another atom but not being completely occupied with chatting, We directly give give insight into every atoms wishes

Bees and ants in nature work together to ensure the survival of their species. They act as a superorganism, with the help of very smart interactive communication systems this organism can operate without hierarchy, it's like different cells in your body work together to form you as a person. This kind of organism is able to defend themselves against big animals like bears but also build big cities containing millions of individuals. Our project should behave the same way, interacting with each other to be better then the sum of its parts, building (projects) and defending against attackers (critics).

BBC Documentary about ants and their way to act as a superorganism.
