Patternwork

Here we assemble resources for making and mobilising pattern language - the work of pattern language-ing.

Pattern language(ing) is a disciplined and skilful mode of collective memory, generating and holding practical understandings of a kind that can be fluently re-played - or woven or ‘sung’ - back into everyday life and work. It is as much a form of practice (in the body) as it is a form of language.

Some pattern languages - Here are some examples of pattern languages - their contents and their contexts . .

Pattern language features - Since Alexander there has been a reorientation and evolution, away from the built form of material systems, towards the form and steering of constellations of *practices*.

Commoning is at the heart of the pattern language which is needed in making the living economy. But it’s not only ‘on the curriculum’ . . something to be grasped and communicated and mobilised in well-founded pattern descriptions, across diverse sectors of economic life. It is also the form of the practice of college(ing) itself, as a practice of pattern language(ing). This field of cultural production - needs to be cultivated **in commons**, in the college.
