The International Bateson Institute

The International Bateson Institute, registered in Stockholm, is a non-profit foundation for transcontextual research in ecology, economy, social change, health, education, and art. The Institute supports a new kind of research to encourage and incubate projects that seek to study interaction within complex systems. The aim of this research is to increase our ability to take into account the many relationships that coexist in any context of living things. The focus of inquiry is on the inter-relational dynamics between and among systems. The underlying premise of the IBI is to address and experiment with how we perceive, to look in other ways so that we might find other species of information and new patterns of connection not visible though current methodologies. They call this information “Warm Data”.
