[…] we live in a relational reality, in the sense that the properties of the world around us stem not from properties of its ultimate building blocks, but from the relations between these building blocks.

Project Samarai has been born out of a technicality. At the beginning was a simple research for a structureless data model. It took a few years and at the end we did not just find a structureless data model but, to our surprise, what we found opened the door to a new digital world.
A digital world in which information just is, available to anyone at any time, information is automatically present when needed; a world in which every person is not only able to find knowledge, but also to apply it. A world where information automatically merge and where there is no need for structured information storage. A world in which huge, structureless, semantic knowledge-repositories provide free access the accumulated knowledge of humanity, allowing free search and analysis, allowing to create structure from apparent chaos, allowing to gain new insight for everyone.
A world in which functional knowledge replaces applications and in which computers talk to each other and to humans without any protocol. A world in which digital agents autonomously execute complex tasks that have been explained to them by ordinary users. A world in which ordinary users are able to setup custom social networks, exactly the way they need them in order to communicate and collaborate with each other and with other computers.
