“We now have the chance to transcend the limitations of the experience curve. The more participants one adds to carefully designed creation spaces—and the more the interactions that occur between and among them—the greater the chances are that everybody participating will get better quicker at whatever it is they’re doing.

A virtuous cycle begins to emerge as more and more people connect with each other.”
