We are living in a world of wicked problems and “beyond the normal”. The time to search for single domain solutions is over. If one wants to tackle the wicked problems of our time, we have to go beyond our - economical - current state of things and change the DNA of the paradigms that shape our world.

I am very interested to exchange, contribute and build alternative ecosystems in which new perspectives and ideas can be “tested”.

I have been looking into The Dandelion Republic as it is a economic as well as a social/ cultural experiment in its line of thinking.

i am already midway between a science fiction writer and an economist: I am an activist with a twitter account. I am satoshi nakamoto, come to reclaim the true spirit of blockchain technology, to redistribute the memes of production.

First, I’m here to hear about others, get ideas, and contribute with my opinions, and related with this, with my resources too.

The “storytelling” of this project sounds really good, and that wakes up my interest in it

I hope to cooperate and give somethings to the project

I’m interested in any sideways path to collaborative group thinking.
This in particular connects to some ideas of worldbuilding familiar from tabletop RPGs, but taking it beyond what I’m used to. [though peope here might find some inspiration from the RPG Microscope RPG » Lame Mage Productions]
I also think taking fiction seriously is a great way to consider the world.

Introduce yourself
I’m Fabio Fernandes, a science fiction writer based in Sao Paulo, Brazil. For a number of years now I have been writing a more optimistic kind of SF, which you could call Solarpunk. I’m very interested in thinking healthy, sustainable alternatives for us to live better in this world - right now and in the future too. I think I can contribute joining the brainstorming and helping to create better scenarios for humanity.
