Academy · Course on the Flow Model

The Flow Principle

Seven states, seven transitions, one frame: the Flow Model describes how something comes into being – a project, an idea, an organism. This course explains the model step by step and shows where you meet it in design: in the phases of a project, at the seams between disciplines and in the way you work.

Seven modules

  1. 01 / 07Spark & pulseWhere does a beginning come from, and what keeps it alive?
  2. 02 / 07Resonance & patternHow does a beat become a form?
  3. 03 / 07Tension & releaseWhy does every design need friction?
  4. 04 / 07Movement & integrationHow do many parts swing together without anyone setting the beat?
  5. 05 / 07Emergence & interferenceWhat emerges that was not there before, and what disturbs it?
  6. 06 / 07Resonance potential: the seamsWhere in a project lies unused resonance potential – and what does it take for parts to answer each other?
  7. 07 / 07Self-leadership in flowWhere are you right now in your own spiral?

This course is a scaffold: titles, questions and goals stand; the texts, examples and the audio version follow module by module.
