I am interested in knowing if it is possible to collectively make, create something in the RBC. How will it work as a social construct? Like open-source software, it is possible to make a book that is maybe iteratively developed but for now, ship the first version. 10,000hours as an individual is fine but if there are too many experts how will that situation work. Reading together collectively without it becoming something is consumption. I think yesterday Netflix a few days back began its own book club. It is very well defined as a space of thinking. Roam has a history of practices now rather than a specific model. History is also a tool to build on. How a community tried to read and engage with what they read is worth recording. That is the background to now what is personal research. To try and close it by the end of the two sessions is the goal for now, but I may be too optimistic. Rob builds his useful book as a product design process by putting content out there and taking feedback on the text till it's polished to a certain point. The idea was on the backburner but Kahlil's interest in Rob's work made me want to try and bring it to some fruition. Roughly I have notes in the works in a bunch of sections that I am compiling. What are the internet other book clubs around? What is roam and the network of ideas in its orbit? What did each of the six bookclubs achieve? If there is a minimum variable for the roam book club what are they? Which are the other note-taking systems and productivity theories to explore? Most of these questions I began asking from RBC4 that try to tie down with this version of my thinking about note-taking.
