The translation and transformation

Collective Thinking Machine could be understood as a practice, which implies specific tools and ways of using them, however this does not guarantee any prescriptive result, since the methods emerge from the realization itself like hacking-crafting.

In this sense, we reach one conclusion that we build a groundwork on how to translate ideas from different  contexts through craft, digital processes, and material. The Collective Thinking Machine makes it easy to see or read different contexts. The groundwork is built for this structure, where it is not difficult to imagine it in different contexts. Within this structure, observation equals relationship braiding. Even though we are from different backgrounds we recognize a familiar ground that is built through C.T.M.
