My name is Michel Bloch, I am a retired computer-business executive located in Paris France; I am a graduate engineer and worked mostly in business during all of my international career. I started being interested in complexity sciences and social network theory ten years ago and read 000's of pages, mostly in English: Complexity, Chaos, Linked, Six degrees, part of a New Kind of Science, The tipping point, John Holland, Stuart Kaufmann, Lynn Margulis, R Dawkins... I worked on "Marketing and Complexity" and delivered two lectures on this topic at the Applied Math Institute at a Angers University. Now I am the chairman of a discussion group with 32 members called "Emergence Paris" which has been working on applied complexity sciences during the three last years. We are a "learning organization" i.e. most of the presentations are made by the members. We feel somewhat isolated and would be very pleased to be in contact with a group like yours.
