Hi ,
For a speculative futuristic article I'm writing (for a journal issue edited by Francis Heylighen), I need a new word: a word to denote a mind that is halfway between an individual mind and a society of minds.
Not a hive-mind, but rather a community of minds that exchange thoughts/ideas directly rather than thru language, and hence derive a degree of synergetic mutual intelligence much greater than that achievable in a society of separate minds....
I'm reviewing two possible future examples of such minds
1) a community of Novamente AI engines
2) a community of human minds that are enhanced with neurochips or related technologies and linked into a Net enabled with "Kazaa for thought-complex-swapping"
Any suggestions?
Also, any reference to prior ("serious" or science-fictional) developments of this theme?
Thanks, Ben G
