Welcome to a universe of connections by recommendation...

Wherein by the same mathematics inexorably positioning billions of human beings around the world within some 6 or so steps of each other...

...members of the Integrated Global Creative Economy are drawn to proximity to all other members of the IGCE inside the Matrix.

Recommend somebody. You will appear on that person's page. Somebody recommends you, they will appear on your page...

...both plugged into a mathematical superpower: the small world phenomenon. By which all are in range of all.

In a small world great things are possible.

A little bit about how the math works:

I'm Sparrow. I built this matrix so that every creator on the planet would be conceivably findable and accessible from all others, beginning with musicians in Bahia, Brazil. The matrix combines recommendation by both artificial and human intelligence (human preferred) and the small-world phenomenon (responsible for the fact that most humans are within 6 steps of most others) in a simple but powerful manner which has never been used before.
