Our Membership will be like a fission-fusion society with fluid recreational groups. Our main type of recreational groups, what we call Pods (Local Community) will be Sub Pods (Smaller Groups within a local community), Super Pods (State), and Mega Pods (Multi-State)
A fission-fusion society is a type of social structure where group membership and size fluctuate over time, with individuals joining and leaving smaller subgroups (fission) and these subgroups merging or splitting (fusion). In a fission-fusion society, the overall community remains relatively stable, but the specific individuals within smaller groups are constantly shifting. Individuals can belong to multiple groups simultaneously, and these can overlap and intersect. Individuals can move in and out of these recreational pods, or their identification with a particular pods can shift based on context or personal experiences. For example, someone might identify as a member of their local sports team, an outdoor adventure group, and a community gardening group, and these affiliations might shift in importance depending on the situation. It recognizes that individuals are not static entities but rather constantly evolving beings who navigate a variety of social contexts and relationships. A fluid recreational group is a group where individual identities and group affiliations are not fixed or static but can change and evolve over time and in different contexts. A key benefit of this is to create dynamic Interactions where Individuals may form temporary groups for various activities. This dynamic nature allows individuals to navigate various cultural, social, and personal influences, leading to a more flexible understanding of self.
