About Me:: Technologist, futurist, ecotopian, autodidact, pro-activist, recovering neologist, idealist, pragmatist and more.

Ideas that have meaning for me:

* Life is a positive sum game, play to win/win!
* We are living in an upside down world and a peaceful bottom up revolution is needed to fix it.
* Connecting and empowering the Cultural Creatives will change the world.
* Doing well by doing good
* Decentralized networked mutualism embedded in augmented reality
* Ecology is the key.
* All we really need is sun, dirt and water, but what if we add algae, hemp and rockdust to the mix?

Wondering about Flexible Specialisation as discussed in the book: The Second Industrial Divide.

Tell us about your project/s (please include project URLs): Green In The City is an emerging project focused on urban ecology, no URLs yet, more details to come.

Community Engine is currently on the backburner, but that will hopefully change soon.

I have a very loose association with Solaroof http://solaroof.org.

Needs a pile of work and economic analysis, but I think it gets round the problem of having a central government that raises taxes in an arbitrary fashion.
