“If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.” - Samuel Adams -

Optimism is a political act. Entrenched interests use despair, confusion and apathy to prevent change. They encourage modes of thinking which lead us to believe that problems are insolvable, that nothing we do can matter, that the issue is too complex to present even the opportunity for change. It is a long-standing political art to sow the...

I have been thinking about the goals of this website. Are we trying to create a heaven in space? This would seem to me to be a worthy goal, although we as a species have made a pretty miserable job of making any sort of heaven on earth. This seems to be the achievement of certain individuals, some of whom we may have met or read about and...

We looked through the door and saw composers writing music, musicians rehearsing, and for some reason there was a banker(?) in the room. Now, since composers like John Cage, Pauline Oliveros, Karlheinz Stockhausen, etc, the doors have been thrown wide open. We walked into the room apprehensively though. We watched (and perhaps talked) to the...

I really enjoy my carnal existence; eating, drinking & exercising. But strangely I quite appreciate the idea of living forever - despite all of the negative connotations associated with it - what if this "Polytopia" was to be a hyperspace - kinda like second life, but controlled in the first person by our electrical selves,...

Life is about experiencing. There is no one in your life more central as a character than yourself. Therefore, I decided that experiential protagonism is the way forward. What is it? To me it is the essense of life as a living, breathing human being. Every day we interact, learn, teach, experience. From these experiences we grow. Central to this...
