BlockScience as a Cybernetic Organization (Cyb-Org)

BlockScience’s work often entails adapting and applying institutional analysis frameworks to better understand the ‘functional architecture’ of our clientsprojects, in order to provide contextually appropriate systems engineering solutions for the environments they create and exist within. In this article we turnthe microscope around, using those frameworks to map the functional architecture of BlockScience as a cybernetic organization. By sharing some of the internalsensemaking that we have used to better understand the interdependent flows of our own org, we aim to propagate these modes of organizational awareness to enable experiments with more emergent and adaptive institutional forms.
