Culture.

Society.

Culture continues.

Society changes.

Culture is an infinite game.

Society is a finite game.

It’s time to play a new finite game(to begin a new society).

We, the culture, must choose collectively to play this game.

The next game will not look like the current one; it will have new rules.

New ways of winning and losing

New ways of playing and acting within it.

We must renegotiate the Social contract (the rules to this game) together, voluntarily, with the idea of a better future in our hearts.

To figure out how to allocate everything we have in a new way.

Anyone who feels they represent a coalition can send delegates, ideally, the best minds in the respective field.

In a giant visible conference.

To negotiate new rules to a better world and a better game for all.

To discuss and use technology to determine.

What a better world might truly look like.

Series of conferences highlighting best thinking and best ideas in all areas.

Public votes.

Best ideas win.

A date will be set.

Tickets will be sold to a public audience/attendance, with scholarships and free tickets offered to people with proven track records.

The goal is that this will all take place online through a live apparatus, so in theory, everyone can “be there” and see and view different speakers.

Screens around every part of the conference.

Telepresence.

Different seminars and groups will be given.

People will have choices.

Ask questions.

Robust viewership apparatus.

Discuss fundamental cultural issues.

Form new policies.

And clarify fundamental vision and values at a cultural level.

Create frameworks of goals from infrastructure and health to policing and city planning.

Allocate resources fairly and renegotiate all economic rules to focus on abundance and sustainability. Ideas such as jubilee, crypto-economy, and UBI should be good to start these talks.

Hold an event monthly, persist, allow it to grow, build some story structure into it.

Attract more people

Gain following

Make $$

Put back into spreading ideas.

Infiltrate the current system by acting as a ‘party.’

Build the new one.

Finite and Infinite Games
