Our shrinking attention and limited cognition becomes a barrier into transcending at the next level of communication.
Cutting information into smaller bite sizes or increasing the speed of reading by factor of X will not make a huge difference when trying to move this information from one to another.
As information becomes more complex, each individual will be pushed into its own limited cognitive bubble where every bit (word for example) will have a slightly different meaning when decoded. And a phrase will have a cumulative error of the words inside.
This process is already happening but it is not visible and the consequences are not critical. When outside of own social bubble, it is just an internal growing feeling of being misunderstood more often and more deeply.
As the informational flow widens, our individual cognitive samples increase in diversification and size.
Trying to reconcile these individual cognitive “realities” and make a collective sense as a community at the same time require an updated system of communication. The “traditional” ones become inefficient.
When challenged, we feel it as a growing trend of empathy fatigue or apathy for the most sensitive ones but as divergences become wider, they take all forms of conflicts.
Our shared intellectual truth goes deeper and requires more time and intellectual stamina to be discovered. Time and capacity which in our case is limited as attention is shrinking and cognitive capacity is limited by design.

Will get worse before getting better
Short story
We spend most of our life time communicating with others or introspecting ourselves.
Yet we do not have an objective golden standard to indicate how well we do it. We measure our steps, calories or glycemia but we do not know how to measure our communication, unless subjectively interpreting answers or reading clues.
Building upon a body of scientific studies, Adiem use wearable apps to measure the quality of communication by reading it in our heart beats. During heart-connected Sessions, adiem measures levels of Empathy (individual availability to connect) and Resonance (group quality of communication).
To globally enhance Empathy and Resonance, adiem founded a web3 ecosystem https://www.synerative.com/ where people can register "on-chain" their Adiem Sessions as Bio-Generative Assets (BGAs). These BGAs are the founding blocks to be assembled by other creative founders into Collection-Ventures. Collection-Ventures are initiatives designed to stimulate and enhance communication through non invasive means: generative art, sensorial companions, digital therapies and more. These Collection-Ventures act as web3 commercial vehicles where all founders receive a recurrent income based on how the collection performs. Some, Collection-Ventures also act as clinical trials where each BGA is feeding back the system in a reinforced learning loop while generating value for the owner behind the BGA.
Adiem and Synerative Communities act symbiotically to create the golden standard of measuring the quality of communication while fairly distributing the created value upon the way through web3 Collection-Ventures.
Our joint mission is to measurably expand global empathy in less than a decade.
Long story
An individual story about how we can feel if someone manipulates us or simply is not authentic in the communication. Learn how to express our thoughts and feelings in such a way that it is better understood by others.
A collective story of how we can enable humanity’s nervous system and take a leap step upward into a society which lives as an organism with collective reflexes and individual dreams.
First chapter is about building the global platform where we can learn and practise how to connect with ourselves and others at a deeper level and how to better transfer a rapidly growing body of knowledge.
A collective organism needs collective abilities. Being intelligent is not enough if you cannot pass most of this knowledge further into a “biological” downloadable way, at scale.
In Humanity’s first chapter of intelligent beings, language as we know it moved us up to this moment. From now on, moving further will not be just about moving bits of information at the speed of light from one place to another.
It will be about being able to deeply and collectively move it between us in an efficient and authentic way. Otherwise, the more we communicate, the worse it will get.
adiem's mind mission is to reveal the deeper layers of human communication and expand empathy in larger society circles.
If this does not become our collective mission, some will manipulate others somehow.

Fly , Fall
Adiem's mission is to expand Empathy and Resonance of groups, communities and society as a whole. It does this by processing real time heart and contextual data collected through wearable apps.
It dynamically measures the real time ability to connect with others (Empathy) and the quality of interactions ( Resonance).
Adiem serves as an adaptive data foundation to connect ourselves with the space around us. Today we call these forms an environment and we perceive it as decoupled from us.
Any living entity, including our human body, developed in time around the expanding capacity of its nervous system, the command center which is in charge to move information efficiently from in and out of its boundaries.
Humanity stands up today in this position precisely because of our capability to move information around so efficiently and collaborate at large scale.
Still, as we approach our collective cognitive cliff we should learn how to fly in order to not fall, when it comes to move relevant information from one another.
If we were to observe ourselves as energy in motion, our connectivity could be seen as a measure of waves coherence [4] : brainwaves, heart waves, all sorts of interfering mechanical or electro-magnetic waves.
A good communication from a wave perspective happens when waves are interacting in a synchronous way. Various studies show that synchronicity of brainwaves on different frequencies are correlated with good perceived communication and feeling of trust.
But not only brains communicate. In fact, many organs have neuronal cells and “talk” to each other like the heart or gut . And the heart is 60X “louder” than the brain in this sense but very few technologies (music, dance and regrettably smoking) are focusing on how to improve this communication at scale.
From this deeper perspective of the heart, all optimal, trustful or loving relationships carry a signature under the form of the heart's level of synchronicity.
At adiem, we call it Resonance and is the signature of an optimal communication while Empathy us our ability to connect to each other.

Current Technology Stacks
Currently, the Collection Ventures come in three Classes based on their objective and business model behind:
-
Art & Architecture: Collections to stimulate our senses and provide synesthetic experiences. They aim to increase sensitivity and empathy, and promote resonant interactions in individual and collective settings. Could be visual, acoustic, linguistic, tactile, olfactory or else.
-
Science & Data Processing : Some Collections can become recognized as a digital therapies or communication companions, thus must undergo validation through scientific and clinical means. This process requires predictive data validating a hypothesis. You have now the opportunity to contribute with data in return of ownership of the future commercial deployment. If the validation is successful, contributors become Data Founders and will hold a predefined stake in the future therapy or companion. Here is a list of theoretical data you can play with in your hypotheses.
-
Therapies & Companions: Clinically validated Collections become Digital Therapies or Communication Companions. Adaptive mediums calibrated through real time ML to the connected audience. All Data Founders own a stake in them, as well as all the contributing stakeholders.
Each Collection acts as an independent Commercial Vehicle with different founders sharing the same vision and complementary abilities to reveal and enhance human communication.
Each Bio-Generative Asset has an owner behind it identified literally with a heart.
Bio-Generative Assets or shortly BGAs, are the building blocks of our future bio-connected environment. They are like Atoms. BGAs can be seen as small data structures connecting (1) biometry (e.g. heart rate, glucose) with (2) surrounding context (e.g. sunset, Friday).
To become useful, BGA's are chained together in Collection-Ventures, as Atoms are assembled into Molecules. As part of a Collection-Venture, BGAs have the following structure:
-
a unique biometrical set of generative data (e.g. heart rate) of a person (anonymous)
-
a connected set of generative data captured from the surrounding context of the person ( e.g. weather, noise, etc)
-
a "bridge" connecting the BGAs into a higher level composition. The "bridge" is defined by the Collection's Class they belong to.
Driven by the vision of enhancing empathy on a global scale, Adiem founded Synerative platform - an ecosystem that enables everyone to create, own and sell Bio-Generative Assets. BGAs are the building blocks of our bio-connected environment. Are designed to enhance empathy and resonant interactions, while creating on-going value for all stakeholders.

Art & Architecture
4.3
Therapies and Companions
Once the predictive models tested in the Science & Processing phase have been validated for the established example, the Collection Venture switches class from Art/Architecture to Therapy .
4.2
Science & Data Processing
Before a Bio-Generative Asset can be recognized as a therapy, it must undergo validation through scientific means. This process requires predictive data validating a hypothesis (using or not real time ML processes). People have the opportunity to contribute. If the validation is successful, people become Data Founders and will hold a predefined stake in the future therapy.

We define our scientific focus at the intersection of the nervous system with sociology. Somewhere in the area of Collective Reflexology of Vladimir Bekhterev with modern tools.
Studying beat-to-beat variations during extended time frames and social contexts can help us develop the ‘alphabet’ of our mind body dialogs as well as our inter-human interactions. Once we know the alphabet, we can start practicing it as we learn how to speak, opening an infinite pool of broad band communication, without the high dependability of a centralized piece of technology.
Humans are powerful beings and technology can help us wake up some of our hidden, dormant senses. We have to choose which ones.

Bio-Generative forms of art and architecture created to stimulate our senses and provide synesthetic experiences. They aim to increase sensitivity and empathy, and promote resonant interactions in a collective setting.
We collaborate with global conceptual artists from different cultures trying to bring back to life deep rooted rituals, re-shaped with vibrational, rhythmic expressions, engaging all our senses: haptic, visual or acoustic. Visual, sound and data processing engineers are teaming up into creating this form Bio Generative Assets.
Perceiving a sight hidden organic signal, such as the heart beat, through an additional sensory route such as visual, acoustic or haptic creates a synesthetic experience. Synesthesia is a perceptual phenomenon in which unified stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in other sensory or cognitive pathways.
Repetitive conscious or subconscious exposure to our own heart beats as well as community heart beats or organic vibrations (earth/is subconsciously training our bodies into more empathic interactions, by teaching our hearts to “play” the collective beat.

Ethics
Below is a high level framework to keep our direction while we navigate uncharted waters. It works both as an individual and as a collective and the idea behind it is that whatever process we design or decide we make we try to aim at the centre of balance between the mind and heart of the individuals and the collective minds (patterns or science) and hearts (art or culture).
