Reciprocity and the Gift: Reimagining Exchange Beyond Transaction

Middle Earth Alan Rayner

This event has expired

In all living systems, exchange isn’t measured or recorded… it flows. Mycelia don’t keep accounts; rivers and riverbeds don’t send and receive invoices; Fish don’t ledger their catch. Reciprocity is not a stalk market. Flow-forms exchange, associate, and dissociate energetic gifts from and with one another. This topic invites us to imagine human exchange less as transaction and more as relationship. How can giving become a way of participating where need is needed, and taking become a way of sharing where exceed is exceeded? What paradigmatic shifts occur when we approach receiving and responding not as transaction from account to account but as the mutual inclusion of each in the other?
