The term Cogniscope Software is used to describe a number of products designed, developed and trade marked by Aleco Christakis that enable the application of the Structured Dialogic Design Process Methodology during the conduct of a Co-Laboratory.
Cogniscope v.1
This now outdated version was produced and sold by CWA Ltd.. A free version is available [1]. The Institute for 21st Century Agoras was distributing 1000 copies of this limited functionality version of the software provided end-users made no claims with respect to the practice of the CogniScope™ method unless those users were certified as trained by the Institute for the 21st Century Agoras or designated training affiliates.
Cogniscope v.2
This version was developed by Leading Design International[2] owned by Aleco Christakis and [Diane Conaway]]. The software developed in the late 90's was compatible with Windows 95, incompatible with Windows XP and became partly compatible with the launching of Windows 7. It is incompatible with current versions of Windows. Cogniscope v.2 uses a number of External Objects that extend the capabilities of Lingo (the scripting language used by Macromedia Director and later Adobe Director), which are no longer supported and do not function with versions of Adobe Director (in which Cogniscope 2 is written) developed after 2000.
Cogniscope v.2: Guided Dialogue
Guided Dialogue, was the WLS incarnation of Structured Dialogic Design [3] It was designed to help groups completely think through problems and situations in a democratic and thoughtful manner. WLS is a licensee of 21st Century Agoras and is fully utilizing the Cogniscope II software in its work.
Cogniscope v.3
In 2012, Aleco Christakis donated the code and rights to Future Worlds Center.Shortly after, Future Worlds Center has organized one of the first global virtual structured democratic Dialogues, with t he aim of
Designing the next generation Cogniscope/Webscope
Between June 18-July 1, 2010, pioneers of the Institute for 21st Century Agoras participated in a series of sessions of a virtual SDDP co-Laboratory with the Triggering Question:
In anticipation of the evolution of the Internet and other interactive technology platforms (social networks etc...) what should be the requirements for the next generation of Cogniscope/ Webscope software (CSIII) for the enhanced and scaled-up practice of SDD?
The results are documented in SDDP Design of the next generation Cogniscope/Webscope.
This version was developed by
SDDP Design of the next generation Cogniscope/Webscope
Post Cogniscope Software
Future Worlds Center has developed through his technology transfer company, Ekkotek High-tech business incubator, IdeaPrism.
