Mosaicmap
Map an understanding a group holds together but no member holds whole
Definition
Mechanism
A group's shared understanding is mapped by recording which member holds which part, how the parts connect, and which questions need several members to answer. Unlike a HolographicShard, where each part carries the whole goal, here no member holds the whole, so the map is the only account of it and is kept current.
Invariants
- Each part is attributed to the members who hold it.
- Questions that need several members are listed with the members they need.
- The map is updated when a member who holds a part leaves.
Risks
Failure modes
Single point of knowing
a part held by one member is lost when that member leaves.
False sum
parts that do not connect are assumed to form a whole.
