The panarchy has 4 phases in which an organization will find itself: Exploit (r), Conserve (K), Release (Ω), and Reorganize (α). This diagram is pointing to the phenomenon that within an organization "members" ( framed in EbDish as Rtubes ) have personal/internal panarchies that affect the way they "Notice ECWaves." Point of view, conceptual framework, mindset, information filter all point to a similar phenomenon.
For this iteration "Red' is said to indicate a Risk Heavy Panarchy, Green to indicate a Benefit Heavy Panarchy. Blue to indicate a Neutral Panarchy , Grey a Balanced Panarchy.
For example, the Red Rtube is in Release (Ω). With a Red Panarchy, it will be more attuned to more Noticing Red Heavy NME Complexes. As NME fit into the operative Risk Nfractal it reinforces the Release state. The opposite trend is for the Benefit Heavy Nfractal to attract Green Heavy NME Complexes. The ability to Notice "Benefit NME " reinforces the Benefit Nfractal which acts to encourage Benefit focused behavior in response to changing environment.
When the Top Rtube (level One) and its surrounding NFractal double helix are well formed the likelihood is that subsidiary Rtubes will be in sync. While they may be in different panarchic phases from the Level One parent, they will be able to Notice similar NME and Feel the ECwaves into which they are embedded.
Each personal Rtube is bounded by their own NFractal double helix. The Risk attuned "Story" and the Benefit attuned "Story." Level 2,3,and 4 decisions are ruled by Avoiding Risk and Increasing Benefit. The Rtube perception of Risk and Benefit is determined by the proximate Nfractal double helix surrounding their local Rtube.
The proximate NFractal double helix is affected by the Level One Nfractal, but not determined by it. Rather it contains some NME complexes that come from Level One, but many more that come from Xhange Peer Level Rtubes. It's complicated further by Nfractal strings to Rtubes that are outside the organization.
The theory is this process begins to capture a mechanism for the importance of weak links and small human groups as the engines of culture.
