Synopsis "Global Brain"

The Global Brain is a metaphor for the worldwide intelligent network formed by people together with the information and communication technologies that connect them into an "organic" whole. As the Internet becomes faster, more intelligent, more ubiquitous and more encompassing, it increasingly ties us together in a single information processing system, that functions like a "brain" for the planet Earth. Although the underlying ideas are much older, the term was coined in 1982 by Peter Russell in his book The Global Brain. How the internet might be developed to achieve this was set out in 1986 "Information routeing groups Towards the global superbrain: or how to find out what you need to know rather than what you think you need to know". The first peer- reviewed article on the subject was written by Mayer-Kress and Barczys in 1995. Francis Heylighen, who contributed much to the development of the concept, distinguished in three different perspectives on the global brain, organicism, encyclopedism and emergentism, that developed relatively independently but that now appear to have come together into a single conception.
