A network of calibrated observers
Sensoria's community is part of the research. The people who train, attend, host, and fund are the same people producing the data the science depends on. Calibrated observers produce better data. Better data produces better methodology. Better methodology produces better events.
Local communities, shared purpose.
Regular gatherings around consciousness exploration, research participation, and mutual support.

Parallel, not sequential. Most people hold more than one.
Member
Attend events, subscribe, engage in forums, explore the landscape.
Connector
Make introductions, broker collaborations, refer people in.
Creator
Write, design, code, build. Contribute skills to workstreams. Publish in the Proceedings.
Node Lead
Launch a node, host monthly gatherings, mentor newer members, run salons.
Builder
Launch programs, build partnerships, ship complex things, take a long view.
Patron
Provide sustained support, advise on strategy, champion the mission.
Certification tiers open access to additional roles. T0-T1: Belong, Connect, Create. T2 adds Cultivate, Catalyze. T3: all roles.
Two ways in.
Train as a calibrated observer or support the research mission directly.
