I think it would be wise to run an actual project through your groupcore structure so that a practical example may be seen (The way producing a widget is used as a model in the old-fashioned business space) This would illustrate the "practice" part of your exploration.
Also, I believe that there must be an educational focus to creative work as we go forward and you need to consider that as a part of your matrix. If you want to see what I mean you might take a look at the recent post I wrote about the existential limits of a capitalist model of creative work(attached link below) As you will see, It is my belief that the over-arching goal for creative success (including Groupcore's) shouldn't hew too closely to the current zero-sum capitalist system and that education is paramount in our new age of Generative Artificial Intelligence.
I am reading the book by the Dark Forest writers and I find it to be purely descriptive and uninspiring. I get that this is a manifesto, but the writing leaves us cold. I wonder if it is because of translation? You need more artist-writers and poets. This reminds me of the work of Cory Doctorow without the fantasy
Glad to see im not alone here in the comments— I want to understand but quickly skimmed sideways and im understanding why. Looking forward to further developments though
Wow, thanks for that definition, I realised I was actually building a groupcore too.
I'm very inspired by your work and hope to use some of these ideas and frameworks in my own career moving forward. Thank you for sharing!
Yancey,
