The 2021 Spatial Media Summit | May 18 - 24
Social media is about who you are; spatial media is about the space you make for others. By creating ecosystems in which others can participate we become greater than we are as individuals and discover more rewarding outcomes. Simply put, eco is greater than ego.
Space-Made | The 2021 Spatial Media Summit is a virtual event where builders and leaders in thriving companies and self-sustaining communities share the art and business of bringing people together.
Now is a pivotal moment in the evolution of economic exchange and human society. Many areas of commerce are evolving from a shallow series of transactions to rich, co-creative exchanges.
Creating and stewarding communities — both IRL and URL — is quickly becoming a pivotal element for organizations at all cycles of life, and from small to large. Community stewardship has become a crucial component of modern companies and independent creators.
Join us for a seven-day extravaganza of connecting, learning, creating, and playing. Attendees will come away empowered with a solid foundation of how to create and hold space. Learn how to manifest many types of capital in your life, your community, and our universe.
Come learn how to create space where community thrives and capital compounds. Meet other people who are co-creating the more beautiful world our hearts always told us was possible.
7-days. 44+ speakers. 22+ events. 100% free.
1000s of attendees. 11+ explorable Topia worlds.
The Spatial Media Summit is being co-created by the Topia community and One Inc Cooperative. We'll be in touch with you leading up to the conference with all the info you need.

Radicalized beliefs, such as those tied to QAnon, Russiagate, and other political conspiracy theories, can lead some individuals and groups to engage in violent behavior. Understanding the mechanisms by which such beliefs are accepted, spread, and intensified is critical to mitigate radicalization and avoid increased political polarization.
Co-founders of ALAN Analytics,
Justin Lane
(PhD) and
LeRon Shults
(PhD PhD), co-authored a paper on agent-based modeling of a social media network as a means to investigate the effects of censorship on the amount of dissenting information to which agents become exposed and the certainty of their radicalized views.
The model explores two forms of censorship: 1) decentralized censorship-in which individuals can choose to break an online social network tie (unfriend or unfollow) with another individual who transmits conflicting beliefs and 2) centralized censorship-in which a single authority can ban an individual from the social media network for spreading a certain type of belief.
Their model suggests that both forms of censorship increase certainty in radicalized views by decreasing the amount of dissent to which an agent is exposed, but centralized "banning" of individuals has the strongest effect on radicalization.
