Tribes are a group of people
John Robb - resilient communities
The key to building modern-day tribes is by manufacturing fictive kinship:
“A sense of connectedness that leads to the creation of loyalty to the group”

Where are we heading?
The Internet of Things
• New engagement spaces emerging
• Infrastructure for object linking using RFID
• Developed for use in supply chain management
• Any physical object could be connected to the Internet with it’s own unique IP address
Social Objects
• Any form of media that can be shared
• Provide opportunities for social interaction to occur
• Increase connectedness between friends in a social network
• Think blogs, tags, comments, reviews, tweets and p2p conversations
Physical Objects as Social Objects
• Where has the object been?
• How does it relate to other objects?
• Why did the object change owners?
• What materials is the object made from?
• Who made the object?

P2P Resource Sharing
• People are sharing p2p resources in the physical world
• New services cater to trends in sustainable consumption & the experience economy
• Immense opportunities to build tribes using social media & the Internet of Things

21st Century Tribes
• Tribes can add value by bringing“user-generated context” to every physical object in the Internet of Things
• Interpret, find, personalise & bring meaning
• Overlay of social data linked to object relationships (where, how, why, what, who?)
• Massive possibilities for social connection, marketing & customer engagement
Summary
• Manufacturing “fictive kinship” is the key to building modern-day tribes;
• Social media communities have followed similar rules to build loyalty;
• New possibilities for social engagement through The Internet of Things;
• Social objects are vital for connectedness;
• The physical world is going social
• What new tribes can we build together?
