CURRENT MISSION to create a totally local economy village ABOUT ME I am into living a materially simple life, but full of abundance. Creating an example community that is materially self-sufficient. I want to create an alternative to the global economy, not only by simple living, but by having enough people making stuff that is used on a daily basis for basic needs. I like to tinker with technology that is made from recycled free, local stuff and do theoretical physics and evolutionary game theory in my spare time. PHILOSOPHY Try not to judge others, more impressed by what people do and how they live than what they believe.
