What if you could not just learn a trade - or go to college - but redesign civilization?
We've got a program that will absolutely change your life.
We've been working on the Global Village Construction Set for more than a decade, and now we are starting a school.
We're looking for 24 young men and women to be part of a worldchaning crew - with an explicit mission to open source the blueprints for civilization.
We are offering a 4 year program, where you learn to collaborate, design, and build - a civilization that is both efficient, and humane. But more than this - this is not about technology but humanity. You will learn how to learn, and how to be an integrated human. And most importantly - you will learn the discipline that allows you to cultivate an abundance, groth mindset.
We're building a collaborative, transparent, open society – a level playing field for everyone. The school is our next big step - now transferring our learnings on collaboration, modular design, and swarm builds - to attain scale.
We are starting with housing. In 4 years, you will learn basic to expert proficiency in all of the 20 or so trades. All while engaging hands on in work-study - building Seed Eco-Homes 2 days in the week. We spend one day on a survey of design - the architectures of civilization - including technology, organizations and institution. As civilization architects, our learnings are very broad.
But this would be nothing if we did not learn to be humane. To this end, you will learn how to learn - so that you can form accurate mental models of reality - and you will dive deep into what it means to be human: moral intelligence, character, purpose, leadership, multiple intelligences, emotions, peak performance , soft skills, and more. All aimed at expanding your index of possibility - towards a mindset of abundance.
Designing a new civilization is our focus - by learning how to build, how to think, how to collaborate, and how to be fully human. We are at a dangerous crossroads in civilization - metacrisis, singularity, and AI times - where technology is outstripping humanity's ability to steward this technology properly. To that end, we need to develop the skillsets of integrated humans, collaborating with machines.
We will teach you how to build seed eco-homes in only 5 days - as a highly coordinated, 24 person swarm. You will get a taste of abundance - seeing for yourself how you can build the world. This will put financial independence for you, on a solid footing. This involves 2 days of work study, for which you get paid. And we can hire you at the end - preferably as a construction manager or design/builder - of new societal norms. You see, we focus on transformative enterprise. By injecting open source, modular efficiency and collaboration via swarm design and builds - we get really good at extreme productivity, that can be taken to scale.
First we're solving housing and construction - but housing includes machines used in construction, power tools, and production of materials - all to be liberated into the open source. This includes energy systems, urban gardening, aquaponics, and manufacturing - a product ecology that includes just about all the machines of the Global Village Construction Set.
But we teach collaborative design at scale - learning how to word with dozens in the first cohort - building our campus here as a living-working model to illuminate the world. We teach the civilization design concepts and practices so that we can replicate towards a global movement of providing universal access to financial independence and Universal Basic Assets to everyone across the world, while leapfrogging and solving problems faster than they are created - with open, collaborative design. Our goal is true open source blueprints for civilization - for unleashed progress far and wide.
First, we focus on you. We cultivate humanity – humility, character, possibility, abundance mindset, moral intelligence, soft skills, leadership, and more. Then, we teach you how to learn – rapid learning techniques, accurate mental models, and integrated systems thinking. Superpose this on design-build of houses - open sourcing the GVCS - then we have much of the technosphere covered - for universal progress for all. So that we work with nature to create machines, organizations, and institutions that work. Redesigning the blueprints for civilization - on more collaborative and benign grounds.
We're looking for 24 young men and women to be part of a world-changing crew. We're building a collaborative, transparent, open society – a level playing field for everyone. Ready to be a transformer? The first cohort starts July 15. Apply today, click on the application - in the video description below. This will not be easy - and we will dive right into swarm builds in the appliaction process itself. I'll be working with you directly - expecting to learn more from you all than you'll be learning from me. Apply today if you are ready for an adventure of your life.
