1. how to shrink this.

2. Perhaps the best way to unleash the genius in each person,
that art that gets them out of bed everyday,
to put in the 10,000 hours of expertise,
is to set them free,
in spaces of permission,
where they have nothing to prove.
And where there’s plenty of crowdsourcing for gatherings that matter.
[ie: finding your people everyday is a breeze.]

3. How to facilitate/crowdsource curiosities?
Perhaps by hastening the time between
finding what matters to you & finding your people.

Cool jets. A connection is made in real life. App records it as a trail/node.

8. In order for this to happen, we are suggesting the removal of compulsion from our current
definition of public education.
No doubt, no delusion, chaos is sure to abound.
Perhaps tech can ground that chaos.

9. An app that would encourage/create/support:
1. People talking to themselves daily,
asking themselves if they are doing
what matters.
2. People connecting to people in
their city/community, a strategic
serendipity.
3. People’s mesh network, their
footprint or trail.

11. Another scenario:

12. Julia, age 12, uses a donated/recycled laptop and the donated wifi from the wifi bank, to
voice record the following before she goes to bed:
I noticed a lot of my friends’ parents have cancer. They keep talking about early
detection. I asked my mom and she said if you find out early on, the cancer can usually
be cured, but that not enough people find out early. I also watched a video of a 17-
year-old that wrote a recipe to cure cancer and is now working at Stanford. I’m
dreaming about finding ways to improve early detection. I want to connect to people
who are experts at this and see what I can learn from them.

13. Vicki, age 25, uses her iphone and texts while waiting at the doctor’s office:
I just found out my mom has cancer. They told her they didn’t find it soon enough and
that it’s spreading too fast. I’ve got to research myself, find out some other answers for
her.

14. Tom, age 7, uses his mom’s ipad and his family’s wifi access, to record the following:
My mom has been doing this healing stuff my whole life. I’ve never believed in it
before. But she started doing it with me, because I have/had asthma, and now I
don’t have it anymore. I’m really interested in seeing if it can help people with
cancer.

15. The app connects them.
A mesh network created for each of these could have one small node representing their
intense curiosity and that’s it. Or, it could be the start of an offshoot node, as they advance
into the study of health and medicine. Either way, this cancer node could be detected by the
app in a couple weeks by someone else talking to themselves about the same things and then
they all receive notification of another potential connection.

16. part of – betting on the sync
5 mill – ish: for tech,
while none of the ideas are new, combining them might be, being able to pay
experts [to write code, for an app to hasten the time between finding what matters
& finding your people…] and purchase resources [wifi, devices,..] will accelerate the
ability to make this equitable on a global scale.

17. 20 mill – ridiculous?
Not if it sustains/creates a new/old society/economy..
We must do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody
has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten thousand of
us can make a technological breakthrough capable of
supporting all the rest. The youth of today are absolutely right in
recognizing this nonsense of earning a living. We keep inventing jobs
because of this false idea that everybody has to be employed at some
kind of drudgery because, according to Malthusian-Darwinian theory, he
must justify his right to exist. So we have inspectors of inspectors and
people making instruments for inspectors to inspect inspectors. The true
business of people should be to go back to school and think about
whatever it was they were thinking about before somebody came along
and told them they had to earn a living. – Bucky Fuller
Imagine – if it works.
