"What all of these social institutions have in common is that they
establish flows of human action / information / meaning that, when
taken together as a whole, create complex group behaviors. This
includes identifying goals and milestones (both personal and at the
group level), distributing labor among the members of the group
(deciding who does what), creating personal and group accountability,
determining the permissions and privileges of individual members if
the group, and evolving the terms of these interactions as the need
arises.

While we can describe piecemeal the particulars of a given flow, the
complex behaviors that arise out of interacting layers of feedback
become nearly impossible to describe or even imagine within the
structure of conventional language. These complex flows may require an
entirely new type of language to succinctly communicate; a FLOW
language. For this reason, we have begun exploring the universal
grammar of social contracts and the flows of human activity they
enable."
