Staying in touch after Season 1

Hello, everyone!


I have made a platform (in Facebook) for all of us to stay in touch, even if not "friended". It is a user group under the name "EVOKE Founders, Class of 2010", and it is for now open.


After the 20th, it will go semi-dark and it will become "secret", accessible by invitation only.


It has a board and everyone is welcome to…

EVOKE Season 2, Episode 1 motion comic script

One of the things I believe need to also evolve for Season 2 is presentation, and I think the comic book format needs to be improved upon. Perhaps not a fully fledged animation or live action productions, but maybe a "motion comic", akin to the work done by Budget Monk Productions with their masterpiece Broken Saints.


It is but a small improvement over the current format, but it provides for a more engaging…

EVOKE, a manifesto

We are EVOKE.


Each and every one of us. Big or small. Poor or rich. Asian and Latin. White and black. Young and old. Left and right. Progressive and conservative. Religious and atheist. Illiterate and intellectual. Citizens of the world dead, alive and to be born.


All those who ever have or ever will care enough to look at the world and decide it is not enough to be in the sidelines, pointing fingers and criticizing. Each and every one of us who…

EVOKE 2, the first challenge

There are many great issues and challenges EVOKE can tackle, but there is one that takes importance over all others.


EVOKE itself.


Firstly, it needs to be a bigger and more comprehensive place to exchange ideas, and that means implementing a zero tolerance for censorship with the sole exception of extreme cases, such as blatant racism, constant badgering and/or insulting other members, etc.


Secondly, the Terms of…

Pandemic Dark Site

2011, the pandemic response

Keeping in mind I'd get to form a team and select the people involved, I would have people with high technical knowledge to handle the stuff not many people know how to do, while I worry about the logistics.


Team members would be:


Programmers
Doctors
Pandemic Experts
Media cooperation
Web designers (if a dark site is not yet ready)


The plan would involve first a dark site -…

The EVOKE final stretch and the fallacy of points farming.

So, 10 days left to change the world.


And 10 days where I feel like I have to force myself to see this through to the end.


The reality is I have been loosing my will to EVOKE. The reasons are many: Agent feuds, bans, administrative abuse, content censorship, people trying to force their own vision unto your evocations, points farming, Jane's reluctance to be a part of her own game, the increasing focus on EVOKE 'top dogs', etc.…

Panic during a pandemic: The not so silent killer.

The Tao Te Ching Says:


Gravity is the source of lightness,

Calm, the master of haste.



A lone traveller will journey all day,

watching over his belongings;

Only safe in his own bed may he lose them in sleep.



So the captain of a great vessel should not

act lightly or hastily.

Acting lightly, he loses sight of…

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Stinging Nettle

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
