Co-Creating the Third Attractor

Daniela Bomatter - Manifest Nirvana

Across the world, a new conversation is emerging about the future of civilization. As old systems falter, one path points to collapse, another to control. But visionaries are calling for a Third Attractor: a conscious, regenerative, life-affirming future. Linked with ideas like Regenerative Civilization, Game B, Planetary Civilization, and the Second Renaissance, this series explores what must end, what wants to be born, and how we can co-create a future rooted in wholeness, interconnection, and evolution.

    Bruce Alderman on Co-Creating the Third Attractor

    Across the world, a new conversation is emerging—a conversation about the future of civilization itself.As our existing systems reach their limits, we face an urgent crossroads: one path leads toward collapse, another toward increasing control and centralization. But a growing chorus of thinkers, visionaries, and cultural pioneers are pointing to a third possibility—a conscious, regenerative, and life-affirming future.This series of conversations explores that possibility. While we draw on the term Third Attractor—popularized by Daniel Schmachtenberger—this vision is part of a larger movement of aligned ideas: Regenerative Civilization, Metamodern Society, Game B, The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible, Planetary Civilization, The Integral Age, The Great Transition, Symbiotic Civilization, The Noosphere, Civilizational Awakening, and the Second Renaissance.Each points toward a future rooted in wholeness, complexity, interconnection, and evolution. Over the next months, I’ll be speaking with thought leaders and cultural change-agents who are helping to shape this emerging reality. We’ll explore what must die, what wants to be born, and how we might co-create a path forward that honors the full depth of our humanity and the profound challenges of our time.These conversations are not just about ideas—they are about activating the future, together.
