newview On PCT

The newviewonpct mission is to invite and offer everyone to consider and voluntarily accept

the thesis that behavior is the control of perception -

and that this is the scientific and practical core of how living beings exist and operate in this world.

Click here for a short demo of the

thesis that behavior is the control of perception.


The newviewonpct strategy integrates a range of systems thinkers’ work into a whole systems approach with WilliamT.Powers’ PCT as its core concept.

When embodied in the lives of an increasing number of people on this planet, this newviewonpct vision, if engineered effectively, would "make the world work for all of humanity”!

It is in this spirit that we use R. Buckminster Fuller’s Dymaxion Map and World Game Challenge whose goal is “in Fuller's words, to “make the world work, for 100% of humanity, in the shortest possible time, through spontaneous cooperation, without ecological offense or the disadvantage of anyone.”


Dymaxion Map

The map is promising and the game is challenging. Come play with us.

Dymaxion map and World Game

Fuller, along with co-cartographer Shoji Sadao, also designed an alternative projection map, called the Dymaxion map. This was designed to show Earth's continents with minimum distortion when projected or printed on a flat surface.
In the 1960s, Fuller developed the World Game, a collaborative simulation game played on a 70-by-35-foot Dymaxion map,[60] in which players attempt to solve world problems.[61][62] The object of the simulation game is, in Fuller's words, to “make the world work, for 100% of humanity, in the shortest possible time, through spontaneous cooperation, without ecological offense or the disadvantage of anyone.”[63]

I classify PCT as a theoretical life science who basic proposition is: Behavior is the Control of Perception.  My own synonymous expression of this is: living is behaving is controlling.
