The Third Eye is all about learning—systems, system structure, systems influencers, situations, behaviours, and organizational learning practices. Though problem solving is the skill most in demand in the 21st century, we have to let go of the old methods of solving problems and learn the systemic approach. Unless you error-proof your systems, all other error-proofing efforts are of no use. To do this, it is necessary to understand the psychology of your systems, i.e. how systems behave under different influences and influencers. Don’t just give solutions, provide systemic solutions. Remember every non-systemic solution incurs a debt to the system’s way of solving problems and the systems know how to get us to repay it. Keen on learning only one skill? Learn to solve problems systemically.

Snapchat. WhatsApp. Ashley Madison. Fitbit. Tinder. Periscope. How do we make sense of how apps like these-and thousands of others-have embedded themselves into our daily routines, permeating the background of ordinary life and standing at-the-ready to be used on our smartphones and tablets? When we look at any single app, it's hard to imagine how such a small piece of software could be particularly notable. But if we look at a collection of them, we see a bigger picture that reveals how the quotidian activities apps encompass are far from banal: connecting with friends (and strangers and enemies), sharing memories (and personally identifying information), making art (and trash), navigating spaces (and reshaping places in the process). While the sheer number of apps is overwhelming, as are the range of activities they address, each one offers an opportunity for us to seek out meaning in the mundane. Appified is the first scholarly volume to examine individual apps within the wider historical and cultural context of media and cultural studies scholarship, attuned to issues of politics and power, identity and the everyday.
