The document discusses the influence of John Boyd's theories on information architecture, emphasizing the need for agility, adaptation, and novelty in response to changing environments. It critiques the field of information architecture for being overly complex and passive, suggesting a more dynamic, iterative approach to design and strategy. The talk concludes by advocating for a conceptual spiral that fosters continuous learning and adaptation.

- 44. Observe Orient Act Decide
- 45. How Boyd saw the loop:
- 47. More than just fast looping A way of thinking about survival and success
- 49. Chi/Cheng
- 52. Novelty
- 53. Understanding Novelty allows us to create Novelty
- 54. Novelty produces change
- 55. Boyd left his theory deliberately incomplete
- 56. Boyd and Briefing Boyd and Briefing
- 57. A discourse to make the audience think
- 59. A loser is someone who cannot build snowmobiles when facing uncertainty and unpredictable change A winner is someone who can build snowmobiles and employ them in an appropriate fashion when facing uncertainty and unpredictable change

- 89. What killed the Avro Arrow?
- 90. Capability, but no adaptation in a changing environment

- 92. What killed information architecture?
- 93. Capability, but no adaptation in a changing environment RISK
- 94. 1/2 Information Architecture is a discipline
- 95. We overthink the damn thing.
- 96. Creation
- 97. Destruction
- 98. In IA terms:
- 99. Structure
- 100. Unstructure
- 101. We’re too passive about unstructuring things
- 102. We can’t adapt if we aren’t living in the loop
- 103. And we can’t live in the loop until we’re able to deconstruct.

- 108. We need our own conceptual spiral
- 109. We need to get inside the loop
- 110. We need to focus more on the discourse
- 111. We need to brief more
- 112. We need to get better at breaking things
- 113. We need to embrace novelty
- 114. We need to Chi as well as Cheng
