Who we are

The Institute of Relational Being (IRB) has been birthed through these multispecies relationships and collaborations. Co-created and co-founded by humans and more-than-human companions. IRB is here to be of service to multispecies relationality and emergence.

IRB is engaging in this greater process of linking Relational Being together with the Regenerative Movement in part through utilizing the relational potential that technology can offer.

One of the ways we are doing this is through an app that’s in development called ReBe. It is part of a new project process that is being called a ‘provotype’ (from “provocation” and “prototype”), which you can learn more about from this great paper called: Codesign with more-than-humans: toward a meta co-design tool for human-non-human collaborations.

IRB is creating ReBe, and bringing forth all of its emerging projects (including its Fellowship, Consulting, Collaborations, workshops, writings, etc) with the spirit and goal of Building in Public. The inspiration and clarity of this process comes from Building in Public Hub and they describe this method as “an intentional practice of creating content and sharing your company’s story as it unfolds — with transparency, openness and vulnerability.”

Thank you for considering subscribing

Becoming a part of this community is a base-level dedication to living in a more holistic, caring, respectful, and reverent way with the rest of nature, as we collectively navigate through this cosmic journey together, towards a more eco-centric way of living and being.

Relational Being beckons us to acknowledge our interconnectedness with the rest of this living world. It's an invitation welcoming in the realization that humans are not separate from nature, and the cosmos beyond, but rather we are woven into its tapestry.
