Abstract

Amartya Sen defined development as freedom and choices in his landmark book almost 20+ years back. Now, with the advancement of technology, it is important to enhance choices and develop a society with diversity. In this paper, we argue for multi verse society, where multiple and highly individualized worlds in which free relationships and individuality live. This is possible through the development of Web 3 technology, which focuses on diversity, decentralization and user ownership. It is important to the voices of minorities and provide them space for expressing and having their own choices. Through link to the theoretical physics and informatics, we propose “performance point indicators” (identified as “pp”), and the concept of diversity (DSN: Dynamic Semantic Network) and universality (HACS: Hierarchical Autopoiesis Classing System). The key argument of the paper lies in the combination of HACS and DSN to develop a system of tensegrity (a term often used in architecture as tensional integrity), which provides democratic value of choices both majority and minority in the community. Currently, blockchain and non-substitutional token schemes are gaining worldwide attention as a result of the massive accumulation of data on the Internet and the expansion of digital assets. Web 3 promotes multi-verse society where diversities of communities are maintained and valued. This process can enable in breaking down the non-connected attributes between communities, and therefore, Web 3 would make democracy a reality.
