 We don’t know what the relationship is between belief and visibility and what its link to morality is. As such, we don’t know how it can impact the world, what its potential outcomes are an what problems might emerge from it. We are not sure which methods and processes are most effective. We don’t know how wide the scope is of visualizing the invisible, and what its boundaries are. Finally, we are unsure about the relationship between visualizing and creating a world. We don’t know what the relationship is between belief and visibility and what its link to morality is.

   * [[franco]]: Radical openness and unsustainable homogenization. Everything is visualized and shared, but unseen due to massive "filter failure". There is an illusion of choice, when in effect everything is the same. Economic profit and cost efficiency are shared and visualized. Every individual is so visible that they become invisible and the value of their achievements is ignored. Excess, resource depletion, greed and jealousy are kept invisible.    * [[franco]]: Radical openness and unsustainable homogenization.

   * [[biopentopia]]: Radical openness and sustainable biodiversity. Sharing and diversity are visualized and celebrated. What remains invisible is the edge between the private and the public; also individual desire and cultural identity are flooded under the abundance of difference.   * [[biopentopia]]: Radical openness and sustainable biodiversity.

   * [[geriopolis]]: Closed system totalitarianism and unsustainable homogenization. False resilience of this society is abundantly visualized. What remains invisible is its inherent fragility and unsustainability. Also, the individuals are invisible and any dissent is impossible to comprehend.   * [[geriopolis]]: Closed system totalitarianism and unsustainable homogenization.

   * [[hal2020]]: Closed system totalitarianism and sustainable biodiversity. Government's efforts to create sustainable, biodiverse biotopes is visualized and made as apparent as possible. What remains invisible is the regime's interdependency with the environment and society, as well as non-scientific creativity and problematic (intentional) mutation.   * [[hal2020]]: Closed system totalitarianism and sustainable biodiversity.
