Real life is and must be full of all kinds of social
constraint – the very processes from which society
arises. Computers can help if we use them to
create abstract social machines on the Web:
processes in which the people do the creative work
and the machine does the administration... The
stage is set for an evolutionary growth of new
social engines. The ability to create new forms of
social process would be given to the world at large,
and development would be rapid.
Berners-Lee, Weaving the Web, 1999 (pp. 172–175)

Working out the Plot
The Role of Stories in
Social Machines
A computationally-enabled sense-making network of
expertise, data, software, models and narratives
Scholarly communications knowledge
infrastructure can usefully be seen as an
ecosystem of interacting social machines.
Social Machines are more than crowdsourcing.
We understand them well in the Humanities.
