Join “7 Days to Kick-Start Earth 2.X” - A Story Making Experiment Using a Secret Facebook Group. Invite (PDF) from Willi Paul, Planetshifter.com

How to join us:

• Send me a Facebook Friend Request at William Paul (pscompub at gmail.com)

• I will accept your request and add you to the group

The Story:

• The journey begins when the space ship touches down on Earth 2.X

• To get started, the space craft is transformed into a barracks, a greenhouse is set-up, solar panels go up…
• This is a role play! Jump in with your agenda!

The Tool:

• This group story making experiment uses a secret Facebook Group (i.e. chat box)
• The story of the exploration and settlement plan for Earth 2.X will be advanced by each participant, text by text
• The final discussion or “text stream” (the entire dialogue) is the story

Who should participate?

• The “mission” lasts for 7 days; 20+ folks are needed to co-write the story -
• Earth 2.X participants are real people - no avatars, video games or joysticks!
• Artists, writers, engineers and spiritual folks can contribute their ideas via a text discussion
• People with a desire to write new stories with online tools
• Folks who want to create a new world
• There is no limit to how many ideas or texts each member can submit

Participants are encouraged to incorporate these topics as the 7 day mission evolves:

• Energy
• Ecology
• GMO
• Permaculture
• Nature
• Solar
• Shelter
• Community
• Spirit
• Transition Movement

Goals:

• Test an asynchronous, online story creating process using FB
• Discuss an initial settlement plan for a Earth 2.X – a planet that is similar to Earth
• Is “text stream” a useful term for this task?
• What are some Implications or instructions for problems on present day Earth?
• Test a new Myth Lab 3.0 scheme as follows:

text > multiple texts > chat > multiple chats > text stream (discussion) > story > 10 elements of new myths > new myth

Mission Moderator:

Willi Paul will set the stage for the exercise on Day 1 then monitor the discussion and offer ideas and re-directs as the experience unfolds.

I'm back.

For some reason (not random, not intentional), I've been for a while a magnet for people doing some unconventional stuff and communicating with them in some way. For instance: http://www.think2impact.org - Applied Systems Thinking

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDGYZ6Ged-Y - Kiwah.org (now non-existent)

http://www.fouryearsgo.org - Four Years. Go. The first deadline for the "change of the course" (as if the current course isn't just fine) was 2013, then they moved it to 2014, then...

http://rspbcop15.tumblr.com/post/295318665/2020-climate-solution-me... - the Climate Solutions Meshwork with a link to another non-existent website

There were more (Myspace with removed blogs, Twine) and I think that the latest Willi's experiment was successful for me. It might be selfish, but I personally gained something from it. When I joined Depth Psychology Alliance I was looking for some Zachary Stinson. I still haven't reached him, but the text I wanted to share with him became publishable thanks to DPA members Willi Paul and Kent Palmer (I guess Linda Thompson and Ric Brijl should also be mentioned) - each for different reasons. It's here (the last chapter) http://www.igi-global.com/book/rethinking-machine-ethics-age-ubiqui... and its "psychedelic parody" is here http://communityalchemy.com/eWorkshop1/index.html. I'm invited by Len Troncale (http://lentroncale.com/?page_id=100, thanks again to Kent Palmer) to adapt it and come to Boulder, Colorado, USA to this conference: http://isss.org/world/node/625 Thanks to Willi's experiment and chat I know that it would be a bad idea. I had some doubts and confusion because of David Rousseau, (introduced to me by Len Troncale, http://systemology.org/manifesto.html) and this reality check (i.e. this experiment) was more than welcome. This Sunday will be the last day ever that I'll be logged in the DPA. It's time to move on and take interesting experiences with me.

Bye.

Need your active story writing each day for 7 days. Thanks for the movie references but we need original ideas!!

I've participated in quite a few similar experiments - some of them dead, some dying, and some relatively alive. I'll come back here when it ends and write about my impressions.
