Introduction
I am a 68-year-old Australian-German citizen with a rich professional background in construction survey technology and software development. My career includes beta testing for Trimble Business Center and contributing to both the German and English versions of Wikipedia.
Journey into Citizen Science
Since retiring in 2023, I have fully immersed myself in the world of citizen science. My focus is on systemic thinking and understanding cooperative behaviors, which I explore through the lens of a Citizen Scientist.
The Principle of Collaboration and Cooperation (TPOCo)
As the founder of TPOCo, I have developed a unique framework that synthesizes scientific knowledge from various disciplines. TPOCo examines cooperation as a complex adaptive system, providing insights into collaborative dynamics at all levels, from the microscopic to societal.
Aiming for Systemic Harmony
My goal is to illuminate the evolutionary development of cooperative strategies and advocate for systemic harmony utilizing the principles of TPOCo. I am proud to be a member of The Australian Citizen Science Association, furthering my commitment to this field.
