As for the dance of giving and getting, it is all the things you suggested, a place, a state of mind, a mechanism, and an organism (I would also add ecosystem, although I suppose one could view an ecosystem as an organism)
All these things are aspects of the new systems, each aspect supporting the other to create the mental, physical and emotional environment needed for it to thrive and replicate and spread.
Oddly, this emerging system is also the oldest system of economy, namely reciprocity.
By moving towards reciprocity we are undermining the high castle walls of the feudal industrial economics that have dominated for so long.
The strength of reciprocity is that it is based on the fundamental human compulsions of curiosity, belonging and cooperation. About time we jettisoned the old Fear and Greed roller coaster. Who the hell thought those were good qualities to base economies on?

I like Kamilla’s suggestion:
Yes, we’re open.

Or it could be simply:
Open for Business.

“A Fair Share” absolutely has a nice ring to it, and I like the play on the words. I am also thinking that it might be taking it to close to a principle of fairness/rightfulness.
Something about getting the share that you are entitled to, and rightfully so, where I would like to weight the voluntarism of exchange.
What is the dance between giving and getting?
Is a place?
A state of mind?
A mechanism?
An organism?

A fair share

Ok, here are my suggestions:

Yes, we’re open (like the signs that are in the windows of shops. Then the subtitle could be something more descriptive)

I really like the title of this blog as well. Open Business: A guide to getting what you want.

Oh pen. Are you open?

Open 24 hrs (like those neon store signs. Could I possibly be a shopaholic?)

Open wide… (at the dentist’s office)

OK, I’m really not good at this. I miss you and can’t wait to see you in Århus! Good luck with the final monster.

Love
K
