What This Is

Also see Home.

A comprehensive wiki documenting the OGM (Open Global Mind) community call from Thursday, November 6, 2025.

90 interlinked pages covering:

• 13 participant check-ins and contributions
• Chat conversation threads
• Background on every topic, person, book, and organization mentioned
• Connections between ideas and themes

Source Materials

Located in sources/:

• Zoom transcript: Full closed caption transcript (~38,085 tokens!)
• Chat log: Complete Zoom chat with links and threaded conversations
• Gemini takes: Initial AI-generated participant insights (CSV and MD format)

How It Was Created

Built using Claude Code (Anthropic's agentic AI assistant) on the same day as the call through:

• Reading and analyzing the full transcript and chat
• Identifying all participants, topics, and entities
• Creating participant pages with expanded context beyond initial analysis
• Extracting and organizing chat conversation threads
• Building background pages for every mentioned concept
• Creating comprehensive cross-references

See Work Log for complete meta-documentation of the creation process.

Structure

Core Pages

README - Home page with quick navigation

Concept Index - All 90 pages organized by category

Work Log - Meta-documentation of wiki creation

Content Pages

Participants (13 pages): Each participant has a dedicated page with their check-in, chat contributions, and connections to themes.

Chat Threads (4 pages): Major conversation threads from the chat, synthesized with all contributors.

Themes & Concepts (60+ pages): Background and context on every significant topic mentioned, from AI bias to sourdough metaphors.

Reference (3 index pages):

• Books and Publications - Every work, article, and link mentioned
• People Referenced - Non-participants mentioned during the call
• Organizations and Initiatives - Companies, institutions, and projects

Navigation

Wiki Links

Uses [[Double Square Bracket Links]] throughout:

• Click any [[Link]] to jump to that page
• Every page links back to README
• Related concepts sections on each page
• Extensive cross-referencing

Browsing Strategies

By Participant: Start with someone's page, follow their concepts

By Theme: Use Concept Index categories or Major Themes from README

By Interest: Search for a topic, follow related links

By Chat: Read synthesized Chat Thread - Curiosity Decline or other threads

Follow Connections: Let links guide you through related ideas

File Naming Convention

Files use human-readable names with proper capitalization and spaces:

• Scott Moehring.md (not scott-moehring.md)
• AI Financial Bubble.md (not ai-financial-bubble.md)
• GABA and Filtering.md (preserves acronym capitalization)

This makes files easy to find, read, and reference.

Page Types

Full Call Topics

Pages about topics that were main check-ins or major discussions. These have extensive detail from the call itself.

Background Pages

Pages about topics mentioned but not deeply discussed. These include:

Note: This topic was mentioned during the OGM 2025-11-06 call [context], but was not a main focus of discussion. This page provides background on the concept.

Then useful information about the topic and how it connected to the call.

Reference Pages

Index pages organizing books, people, or organizations for easy lookup.

Meta Pages

Pages about the wiki itself: Work Log, Details About This Wiki, Concept Index

How to Use This Wiki

First Time Visitors

1. Read README for overview and highlights
2. Browse Concept Index to see scope
3. Pick a participant or topic that interests you
4. Follow [[Links]] as curiosity leads

Looking for Something Specific

• Use your editor's file search or grep
• Check Concept Index categories
• Look at reference pages: Books and Publications, People Referenced, Organizations and Initiatives

Understanding the Call

• Read participant pages in order of check-ins
• Read Chat Thread - Curiosity Decline for the richest discussion
• See Major Themes in README for topic overview

Following a Theme

Example: To understand the consciousness discussions:

1. Start with Jerry Michalski
2. Read Non-Local Consciousness
3. Follow to GABA and Filtering

1. Doug Breitbart → Tab Groups Discovery → Executive Function and ADD
2. Scott Moehring → Environmental Neurodiversity → Curiosity and Attention
3. Mike Nelson → Overstimulation and Environmental Neurodiversity → Information Overload
4. See how they all connect!

Tools That Work Well

Obsidian

• Native [[wikilink]] support
• Graph view shows connections
• Backlinks panel
• Quick switcher for navigation

Foam (VS Code)

• Wikilink support in VS Code
• Graph visualization
• Note creation

Logseq / Roam

• Can import markdown
• Bidirectional linking
• Knowledge graph

Plain Text Editor

• Works fine! Just search for [[ to find links
• Grep for topics across files
• Manual but functional

Extending This Wiki

Adding Content

To add new pages:

1. Create Page Name.md file (proper capitalization, spaces OK)
2. Add disclaimers if not from call
3. Use [[Links]] to connect
4. Add back link to README
5. Update Concept Index if major addition

Connecting to Future Calls

This could be a template for future OGM call documentation:

• Same structure
• Same file naming
• Cross-reference between call wikis
• Build OGM knowledge base over time

Potential Additions

• Timestamp references into transcript
• Audio/video links if recorded
• Action items or follow-ups
• Connection maps between calls
• Theme tracking over time

About the OGM Call Format

First-Thursday Check-ins: Special format used on this call

• Each person checks in once (no conversation between)
• Silence and empty space encouraged
• Raise hand or step in when moved
• Switch to conversation mode after all check-ins

Jerry's facilitation: Creates safe, contemplative space

The OGM Community: "Open Global Mind" - group exploring collective intelligence, systems thinking, and transformation

See OGM as Connector for Doug's reflection on Jerry's role.
