This website is for developing ideas and practical solutions to help bring forward the coming post-scarcity age. We intend there to be a practical side to the project, putting the ideas into action to help progress society in a positive direction, and not just to exist for pure discourse and speculation.

It is not an encylopedia. The idea is to use the flexible nature of a wiki to collaborate and evolve ideas relating to advancing civilization. As such the guidelines for how to contribute are different to a project such as Wikipedia:

  • There is no 'neutral point of view' policy. There is no problem with people contributing material that expresses their point of view - this is necessary for discussion.
  • We are looking for people who can contribute positively to the evolution of this project. Also there is no problem in people submitting criticism, but it should be constructive to be of any use.
  • Use of images, diagrams and animations are encouraged as much as possible in all areas of this website as it is such an intuitive and fast way to impart information.
  • The right for people or groups of people to work on alternative variations of articles and concepts no problem as it is part of the process of evolution, although too much fragmentation and variation may not be beneficial becuase of dilution of effort and focus.
