I'm again at the Honolulu Airport. If you look very closely, there are two F22s just above the plane I will be catching. These fighters were generally grounded, but I just saw two of them land.
I'm off to the Seasteading (someday, the structure to the right could well become their headquarters) Conference in San Francisco. They are furthest along of organizations recently formed to develop productive floating platforms for the future of Humanity. Of course Blue Revolution Hawaii also has this mission, and we are complementary, for their immediate goal is one of commercialization, while our Pacific International Ocean Station will bridge research and free enterprise. Who are they?
1. To quote:
That’s why we work to enable “seasteads”—floating cities—which will give people the opportunity to peacefully test new ideas about how to live together. The most successful will become thriving new societies—inspiring change around the world.
We’re creating this future because our governments profoundly affect every aspect of our lives, and improving them would unlock enormous human potential.
2. The Seasteading Institute was founded by Wayne Gramlich and Patri Friedman on 18April2008 with the financial support of Peter Thiel. With Libertarian leanings, SI is in the process of establishing floating cities to improve governance.3. Their Poseidon Award will recognize the first organization which:
– Has at least 50 full-time residents.
– Is financially self-sufficient.
– Offers seastead real estate on the open market.
– Has de-facto political autonomy.
– Is financially self-sufficient.
– Offers seastead real estate on the open market.
– Has de-facto political autonomy.
More about all the above tomorrow.
