Generous Technology

How does human civilization manage data? In the future it will reference the Journal.

A section of the Journal of Citizen Science and Working Memory, the Lost Sheep focus on cosmology research 

The internet should be owned by communities of its users. NTARI's Mesh program establishes community-owned internet, intranet and sensornetworks 

Our goal with the Generous Technology Program was to create infinitely scalable pipelines for profits beyond our core mission. Mesh, JCSWM and the LSRF have set budgets, but each can easily be scaled to global utility services in the event funding arises. 

​​

Each program has a distinct social impact that can be replicated anywhere in the world. Our Generous Technology Programs, will change the culture of the global population toward what we call collaborative planetary development.

The term collaborative planetary development was coined by friend of NTARI, Arthur Lemons III as an alternative to the science fiction term-- terraforming. 

​Network theory assumes that in creating the internet, humans replicated the fundamental structure of our brains and the physical universe-- a communicative, interconnected network of nodes in a universal "computer".

​​

We test that assumption by studying the history of statecraft and attempting to establish better social algorithms based on better principles, like: decentralization, mutual access, ethical, not-for-profit data use, and more. 

​​

One of those assumptions is that humans already practice CPD, we are just really bad at it. Our goal with the Generous Technology Programs is to move funding toward developing our special natural intelligence-- the noosphere-- so we can be collectively wise enough to develop the geosphere and biosphere. It wont take a superman to make the next giant leap forward in the human story, it will take a planetary collaborative effort.

​

It is possible, we can do it.

Here at NTARI, we think the future is brighter, more exciting and more challenging than we can imagine or face alone. We'll need every single one of us to conquer what is next
