Here we assemble for triage the potential patterns that are being highlted by writing in *The Methuselah papers*.
In due course, as they evolve and grow flesh, they should find their way into the body of this wiki, in the narrative flow.

*Suchness* - Not autonomy; beauty

# ¿3 The work of knowing & capability in the collective
Making the movements capable *The capability of ‘we’ - Skill, genre, concept, story*

*Pattern language(ing) and wiki(ing)* - Pattern language(ing)
- Pattern language(ing) – Characterising ‘chunks of practice’ that are known to carry altered social relations, in a form that can be mobilised and danced together, in a design-like intentional choreographic fashion, into the stream of practice. ‘A chorus of voices’.
