SKALEN
Skalen is a new platform for science that takes on established ways of communicating, integrating and publishing science. And it's collaborative.
It is to be a platform that seeks out the risk seeking entrepreneuril spirits of science with a focus on the ones that have an extra-institional following e.g. on the internet, unites them and gives them a fruitful seed ground. This has been a long time coming!A
Principles
A new way of visualizing science
We use graph structures to not only visualize, but help you organize and truly graph what is at the core of the science you are looking at.
NFT Science
Put it on the blockchain and secure priority; secure that it is yours, and yours completely.
Make funding dependent on replication
A lot of research doesnt replicate these days? How to solve this: Make special funding dependent on replication through others.
High citationial accuracy
In order for our system to work, a high degree of citational precision is required. For this, new technology like AI is useful. We use incentive structures designed to break citation rings.
Matthew Principle
“For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance”
Matthew 13:12
This means, people who have good ideas early on in the knowledge graph get exponential rewards. Rewards (money, attention) get distributed around by a version of the PageRank Algorithm Google uses.
There are many advantages a new way of looking at science can have, e.g. that old obsolete, money-grabbing structures of science journals and the like get shook up.
The possibility to use classic internet comments as reference points and make them possible sources of income for people on the internert. This closes the loop on the anonymous guy on reddit who with one comment revolutionizes the OpenAI software stack.
