FREMTIDENS BYER: FREMTIDENS BOOPPLEVELSER: Jaque Fresco, 98 år gammel, still going strong - er veldig fremtidsrettet. BBC har vært på besøk hos ham nettopp. Se reportasjen og fortell hva du tenker. bbc/specialfeatures/horizonsbusiness/seriesfour/episode-11-connected-cities/?vid=p028r3y7 The future does not depend on our present-day beliefs or social customs, but will continue to evolve a set of values unique to its own time. The very notion of Utopia is static. The paths that we choose will ultimately determine whether or not there is intelligent life on earth. - Jacque Fresco “I have no notions of a perfect society, I don’t know what that means. I know we can do much better than what we’ve got, I’m no Utopian, I’m not a humanist that would like to see everybody living in warmth and harmony: I know that if we don’t live that way, we’ll kill each other and destroy the Earth.” - Jacque Fresco The Venus Project is neither Utopian nor Orwellian, nor does it reflect the dreams of impractical idealists. Instead, it presents attainable goals requiring only the intelligent application of what we already know. The only limitations are those which we impose upon ourselves. - Jacque Fresco Were not interested in an established culture, were interested in an emerging culture, Its not about creating a utopia, but about creating a culture and economy the best way that we know how at this point. - Jacque Fresco ____________________________________________________________ Any assumption of finality or utopia is really stupid because theres never been any evidence to show that a person could design the best laptop. You can design the best laptop that youre familiar with at that time but theyll always get smaller, faster, more appropriate, lighter in weight. There are no final frontiers, there are no utopias, no best way of doing things. Theres always a more appropriate way of doing things. ~ Jacque Fresco, Teamspeak seminar, June 12 2011 Source: https://youtube/watch?v=IkqJC2bgQrw Theres no such thing as designing the perfect utopian city. Everything is subject to change. There are no final frontiers. ~ Jacque Fresco, teamspeak seminar, July 31 2011 Source: youtu.be/Xl7J853zTPw Utopia, if ever established, will die, will stagnate. Whereas what Im talking about, an evolving culture, or an emergent culture -- I have no notions of a perfect society. I dont know what that means. I know we can do much better than what weve got. Im no Utopian. Im not a humanist who would like to see everybody living in warmth and harmony. I know that if we dont live that way, well kill each other and destroy the earth. - Jacque Fresco, Future by Design Source: vimeo/15983814 Theres no way to design a society thats optimal or utopian. Its better than the one that was. Systems always undergo change.~ Jacque Fresco, TVP Teamspeak3 seminar, March 18 2012 Source: youtu.be/ReLj6fJfOVM
