A structural element that allows a context of activity to interact with another context of activity.

The ''interface'' specifies how [[processes]] in one activity context are translated into [[processes]] in another activity context. It allows interoperability between different contexts of activity or organizations, [[projects]], [[ventures]]. See also [[networks of networks]].

The [[legal structure]] of an organization is an interface, allowing it to interact with other organizations in its ecosystem, including the government or governmental institutions.

The ''interface'' is part of the organizational structure. It must be considered at the same time with other structural elements such as [[culture]] and [[ethos]], [[methodologies]], and [[infrastructure]], because all these elements are interrelated and form a holistic system. In other words, it cannot be considered in abstraction of these other structural elements.

 =Example of [[Sensorica]]=
-[[Sensorica]] is an [[OVN]], represented legally in Canada as a non-registered association. See [https://www.legisquebec.gouv.qc.ca/fr/document/lc/CCQ-1991 Code civile section V, 2267]. As such, it is impossible for sensoricans to sign a contract with an institution, government, private firm or other. Another problem is that in an association legal liability rests with the members of the association, i.e. the [[affiliates]] of the network. To interact with the institutional world [[Sensorica]] has created legal interfaces such as the [[Custodian]] and the [[Exchange firm]].

-In short, the [[Custodian]] is a non profit organization that acts as a trust for all the [[assets]] shared by network [[affiliates]], including physical spaces, equipment    and tools, consumables, and even digital assets such as web domains, online services of all sorts, including contend and repositories of content, including financial services (fiat and crypto accounts / wallets). Any liability associated with the use of these assets is absorbed by the [[Custodian]]. Thus, if someone gets hurt in a shared space (the [[Sensorica lab]]) the [[Custodian]] takes on the blame and uses its insurance to repair the damage. The Custodian is also used to acquire grants and distribute them to network [[affiliates]] to conduct their activities. When the network interfaces with the market, by offering a service or a product, the [[Exchange firm]], which is a limited liability corporation absorbs the liability associated with the commercial activity. The [[Exchange firm]] and the [[Custodian]] can also sign contracts with institutions, public or private.
