I'm legitimately excited about your community. :D A couple years ago I came up with an acronym AYNICo (All you need is co). It's true! Community, collaboration, communication, co-creation, etc.
Funny thing though, when I looked up the acronym I made an interesting discovery. Snatched from Wikipedia...
Ayni (Quechua, also spelled Ayniy or Aini) can refer to either the concept of reciprocity or mutualism among people of the Andean mountain communities or the practice of this concept. As a noun, the law of ayni states that everything in the world is connected, and is the only commandment that rules daily life in many communities like the Q'ero. As a verb, this often refers to the cooperation between the members of a community when one member gives to another, he or she is entitled to receive something back. Well-known practitioners of Ayni include the Quechuas and Aymara, as well as numerous other tribes that live in the Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia.
Crazy huh? (I think so... lol)

Wow. I bet you find these types of relationships all the time! Do you find yourself piecing random things together?

Oh man... oh man... DEFINITELY! I actually think there is "science" to the way seemingly "random" things are connected. I was talking to my brother about it once and he mentioned the bouba/kiki effect. It basically shows that there is a universal (to humans) connection between sounds and shapes (across cultures, languages, etc.) Bouba/kiki is really simple, but it must pretty itself in really complex and seemingly (random) ways (like AYNI and ayni).
I actually want to write a novel connecting all of the crazy dots/relationships in my life! lol (Probably so I can sit back, look at them and... piece together more random things! lol)
