Abstract: Indigenous cultures around the world developed an extraordinary repertoire of practices that embody many of the goals ultimately sought by complex systems researchers: egalitarian social relations, circular economies, ecological sustainability. Working with their modern descendents, we can develop collaborative practices that bring together “bottom-up” cultural traditions such as African fractals, Native American biocomplexity and restorative justice with contemporary computing technologies and frameworks.
