Starting a superstructure is only the beginning. The real task is envisioning what it can do, how it will work, and who you need to work with. If you're not a member, consider joining now. If you are a member, be bold, jump in, and use the superstructure to start organizing for survival. Edit it, add to the vision, and make it real, online and off. And don't forget to rave.

More about Superstructures

  • Terra Perma

    Sustainable Food Production; Planned Through Play
  • Founder: the99th

    ,

  • Who We Need
    Permaculture Designers, Game Designers, Gardeners, Community Organizers
  • How to join

    Describe meaningful interactions between weather, human infrastructure, and floral/fuanal species diversity in producing sustainable food with minimal energy inputs (either in the form of human labor or chemical energy). Describe interfaces to allow the massive complexity of these things pare down to useful organizational instructions that everyone from an urban gardener to a kid in Peru can follow. Describe ways that geo-tagging can make for a richer permaculture design toolbox.

     Any of the three would suffice. 

  • Mission
    A massive virtual world project that maps the weather patterns, species orientation and climatic diversity of the entire world, down to the gardening plot, and allows people to co-ordinate food economies and permaculture designs from the hyper-local to the regional level.
  • What we can accomplish
    • Make it easy, effective and fun for people to produce more healthy, organice food for lower energy costs.
  • How this superstruct works
    • Information about food production from all over the world is contributed to a cloud-database and presented to the public as a virtual world. Opportunities to trade, particularly seeds and fuana, as well as opportunities to collaborate on infrastructure projects (greenhouses, aqua-cultures, bee farms ect.) are played out first in the game, and then reinforced by real-world information that allows players to enact them in the flesh.
