Combine Burning Man together with a farmers’ market with a library and a mini forest, and maybe that’s a bit like what a neighborhood in our future cities will be like. The ultimate in multi-use urban development, emerging out of a combination of technology, specialization, networking, and good old fashioned humanity getting messy and doing the really meaningful and awesome work that needs doing.

Not like Blade Runner. Way more friendly, fun, diverse, and welcoming. For everyone.

Future cities are places you really want to live at least some of the time. While also leaving some of the time, to go off on your own for a while. And then return to, to share and reconnect.

The Big Picture:

My big goal that is getting very much closer, thanks to generous donations, is starting a non-profit community resource hub with resident artists, techies, and educators all working with the community to find creative solutions using available resources to serve the needs of the community members freely and unconditionally so that everyone can be their best possible selves. I’m currently (Summer 2018) starting to seriously look for (very cheap) property, ideally an old farm, probably in mid-coast Maine, and seeking folks who can help figure out the legal stuff of starting a non-profit or whatever, and putting the property into a trust so that it’s always there to serve the needs of those who live there.

I’ve also created a Patreon creator account for those who believe that my work is valuable and who have an excess number of banking points (aka $’s, £’s, ¥, or whatever).

If you want to toss me a little Bitcoinage, this is my wallet address: 1KH9wQmrRrpaMKYM3WFrMJBTGhNGhjBHLo
