Welcome to a digital garden of my research and ideas, developed over time. It’s a bit of a mess, but a garden is to be shared, so it is open for wandering!

Here’s what i’m up to now.

I’m particularly interested in …

  • communication and group dynamics: how these facilitate and are challenging aspects of community living and collaborative projects
  • interconnected systems of health
  • universal basic services—how providing a baseline of human needs can enable greater health and flourishing.
  • car-free cities and towns & human-scale community design.
  • liturgies for modern times: how do we cultivate rituals that speak to us today, that help cultivate connection and meaning?
  • anarchism in everyday life: how to enable the practice of mutual aid in our day-to-day lives.

Make contact

If you’re interested in chatting about any of these or other topics, I’d be happy to connect. I’m partial to synchronous communications: let’s find a time to meet. Or write to hello at danyala dot org.

Reading, listening, pondering

P.S. A note about this site

This is a work in progress, like all of life. I’m cultivating this site day by day. Broken links likely mean something hasn’t been made public yet, but it hopefully will be soon!
