Invisible architectures are architectures that are not directly perceptible by our physical senses. They are opposed to visible architectures.

Invisible architectures trigger specific behaviors, influence the way people are relating to one another, organize relationships in specific patterns, provoke specific forms of consciousness and relationship to reality. Invible architectures provoke the emergence of specific social shapes with their specific states and stages of consciousness.

Methodology

Developing mastery in invisible architectures is a 2 steps process:

Learn how to detect them through details of our everyday life (the way we use certain words or grammatical structures, the way we behave through social codes, the way we exchange with others through a specific currency system, etc)
Design new invisible architectures that can trigger higher intelligence, wisdom and consciousness

The design of invisible architectures is an empirical work that has the same dynamics as physical architectures.

Social codes

The way we behave with one another, the way we engage conversations, say hi or bye bye, ask for something or express our disagreement is strongly driven by cultural patterns. Changing some social codes can shift consciousness to a new

Language

Language is what designs, separates, categorizes, discriminates. Therefore, language is not only descriptive, it is generative. Our whole world views are built on language, language is what creates the world. “In the beginning was the Verb” (John 1:1-5).

Building awareness on our distinctions and on our ontological relationship with reality helps us create generative language processes made to empower at individual and collective levels.

Ontological coaching is a very powerful process to reach such places of awareness and empowerment.

Monetary system

Money is not neutral. Make it scarce, and hierarchies will emerge in a context of competition. Make it sufficient, and more collaboration will manifest.

The monetary system used by a given community can be architectured just like any other architecture.

Understanding money means overcoming the collective blindness process that keeps people unaware of what it is. This is a spiritual awakening experience. Once people understand the process of money, they are compelled to design new architectures that empower the whole community.

Food

What kind of food do we eat? How consciously do we absorb it and digest it? What is our relationship to it? What do we eat and not eat? Are we eating meat? Are we vegetarian/vegan or not? Do we celebrate or take it as pure chemical stuff? Do we know where the food we eat comes from? Have we grown it or not? What are the social customs? How is the table set? Is it social or individual? Do we touch the food? Do we cook? How is is cooked? What is the family story around food? What is the addiction?

We see that food raises many questions that have a strong impact in our world view, individual and collective behavior.

Legal system

Formal law, formal or informal agreements... We are surrounded by an infinite set of rules. Some we are aware of, some we are not. Bringing light to it allows communities to understand many of their working processes. It is then an invitation to build more powerful laws, agreements, rules.

Time

The way we manage our time, clocks and calendar has a strong impact on our perception of the world and our relationship to it. Time/calendar are relationship and social shapers. See for instance the 13 moon calendar external link .
