Briefing Note for April 2026
This information describes a local cultural and digital movement centred in Bognor Regis, blending Anglo-Saxon heritage with modern AI productivity tools. It is led by the CIGMA platform and the 381 Club, focusing on a philosophy called SHARE.
1. The Core Philosophy: SHARE
The community operates under the Law of SHARE, a set of "five runes" or noble truths designed for both personal conduct and organizational management:
• S — Safety: Protecting the "kinfolk" and guarding against "wolves" (risks).
• H — Health: Ensuring tools, minds, and bodies are fit for their intended tasks.
• A — Access: Keeping the "fire wide," ensuring inclusivity and open information.
• R — Resilience: Building for the long term (planting trees for future generations).
• E — Enrichment: Finding joy in collective achievements and soul-centered growth.
2. Digital Tools & Productivity
The central technical artifact is CIGMA (Integrated General Management Application), framed as an "Anti-Procrastination Programme."
• iSHARE: An AI-powered tool that centralises websites, messages, and files into a single "fortified headquarters." It uses "Parsnips" (Partial Anamnestic Record Snippets)—brief data entries under 100 words—to create newsletters, posts, and project maps.
• BADASS: An acronym for the Big Anamnestic Database & Automated SpreadSheet, used for digital office organization.
• Meta Search & WhatsApp: Cited as primary tools for instant information retrieval and community communication.
3. Cultural Identity: The Saxon Revival
The group identifies with the history of Bucge, the legendary guardian of Bognor, and the landing of King Ælle at Selsey Bill (AD 477).
• The Wyrd Web: A central concept where "Wyrd" (fate/becoming) is viewed as a tapestry of past actions informing the present.
• The Chronicle: A commitment to transparently recording deeds to prevent "memory-creep" and maintain "the skeleton of truth."
• Bognor Pagan Moot: A monthly gathering at the Friary Arms to discuss topics ranging from the paranormal to seasonal shifts like Eostermonað (April).
4. Mental Models & Universal Laws
The text synthesizes various "Universal Laws" to guide decision-making:
• Success Laws: Includes Murphy’s Law ("Anything that can go wrong will go wrong"), Kidlin’s Law (writing down problems), and Wilson’s Law (prioritising learning).
• Bashar’s Laws: Focuses on existence, the "here and now," and the Law of Attraction.
• Jungian Rules: Encourages "befriending the shadow" and seeking meaning over pleasure to achieve "individuation."
5. Local Community & Global Links
• The 381 Club: A community hub in Bognor Regis (historically linked to the RAF Association) that offers social events and membership based on "SHARE" values.
• Travel & Property: Mentions of the Bedouin Lodge in Luxor, Egypt, and local Bognor initiatives like creating a virtual "Zootopia" safari in Hotham Park.
Health Innovation: Currently reviewing a trial using Virtual Reality (VR) to help hospital patients in Gloucestershire escape isolation through 360-degree nature videos.
