    Is ‘Resource-Based Economy’ the Right Term for Jacque Fresco’s Vision?

    Originally coined by Jacque Fresco, the term “Resource-Based Economy” (RBE) was intended to describe a radical redesign of society: a system where goods and services are available to all without the use of money, trade, or debt.

    Bioregionalism: The Illusion of a Solution and the Road to Conflict

    Bioregionalism is often presented as an ecological approach, encouraging people to live within the boundaries of natural ecosystems and watersheds rather than within national borders.

    We’re Being Fed “Deep” Books Instead of Science

    These days, you often hear, “This book will change how you see the world.” A colorful cover, words like “new science,” “sacred nature,” “holistic approach.” Inside, promises of grand revelation. But the truth is, most of these books don’t provide understanding. They provide the feeling of understanding. They lull you to sleep. They create the…

    Algorithmism: Faith Rebooted by the AI Pope

    When the old gods lost their authority and the new ones failed beta testing, humanity was left alone — surrounded by chaos, update buttons, and a full-blown existential crisis.

    From Utopia to Dystopia. What happened to The Venus Project after Jacque Fresco died?

    A survivalist mining settlement in the desert where you work for free under the illusion of a city of the future. An institute studying pseudoscientific perpetual motion machines and aether energy as well as healers and shamanism as a substitute for modern medicine. A personal nuclear reactor in the heart of the city. The games…

    Mission on Earth Project: pausing the public campaign

    Over the last 2 months, you’ve heard from us often about the planned smart city and Mission on Earth project we’re involved in – and all well before the official launch of this project.
