Gen Z slang is rife with new words like "unalive," "skibidi" and "rizz." Where do these words come from — and how do they get popular so fast? Linguist Adam Aleksic explores how the forces of social media algorithms are reshaping the way people talk and view their very own identities.

More than a Free Private City, New Nation Eleutheria 1:00:52

15 weeks тому1:00:52

1:00:52

Eleutheria is one of our Business Members. To learn more about the Business Membership Program, visit: https://www.seasteading.org/business-membership/ Key Points: Eleutheria is seeking legal autonomy, something beyond a Special Economic Zone (SEZ). Combining seasteading with a free private city would allow for the best of both worlds. They presented a proposal to the Parliament of Tuvalu about establishing a 99 year lease where they can develop real estate, medical facilities, and seasteads bringing economic activity to Tuvalu. Eleutheria is part of the New Nation Project. If Tuvalu moves forward with the 99 year lease, they will build the Pacifica project. Highlights: Steve Clancy, co-founder of Eleutheria, first learned about free-market principles by reading David Friedman’s The Machinery of Freedom. The motivation for creating the New Nation Project came out of a desire to build a society with Christian values while welcoming residents of any faith. Steve offers insight as an insurance broker to developing new technology like Uber and seasteads. Connect with Eleutheria: Join the New Nation Project: https://www.newnationproject.org/pacifica…

Algae to Disrupt the Supply Chain 54:08

2 years тому54:08

54:08

Elliot Roth, Founder of Spira, Inc, is developing algae to make changes to our global supply chain. Elliot first discovered the nutritional benefits of algae when he was short on cash and looked up how NASA feeds their astronauts. With his background in bioengineering and genetics, his need for easy protein grew into a desire to revolutionize the global supply chain to be less extractive, and grow resources from biological organisms. We talk about building toward a utopian vision of the future. For Elliot, that vision includes localizing the supply chain to reclaim the means of production. We also talk about how the algae blooms and sargassum, which are currently huge problems in Florida, could be resources to treat wastewater and also provide materials for food or to plastics or rubber.

Water Treatment Discussion with Colin Lennox 1:04:47

2 years тому1:04:47

1:04:47

Colin Lennox, CEO of Settling Seas, a subsidiary of EcoIslands LLC, joins us to talk about using biological processes for breaking down waste to produce fresh drinking water and reclaim resources on the high seas. Settling Seas’ wetlands-in-a-box, called Self-Organizing Wetland Bioreactors (SOWBs) function as the ecological hub for seasteads of any size. They up-cycle human, food, and crop waste in saline and/or sweetwater wetland reactors, capturing precious iron, manganese, nitrogen, and methane for aquaponics, energy, and other in-situ resource utilization (ISRU). Unlike on land where nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are the limiting nutrients to plant growth, ocean ecosystems are limited by the lack of metals. The SOWBs are essentially the keystone to ocean permaculture, capturing and concentrating scarce resources into a permanent living, mobile ecosystem. Join us as we talk about how seasteads may clean the surrounding waters, taking lessons from Colin’s experience working with mushroom farm wastewater cycling and coal mining reclamation.

We talk about how to keep focus on accomplishing a goal over many years, keeping hope alive. Later in the conversation, we are joined by Pete Abrams of Plasticrete to talk about "floating over fighting” and his project using plastic to build floating structures.

Micronations Discussion 56:14

2 years тому56:14

56:14

On February 4, 2023, we hosted a Seasteading Social about Micronations in our Discord channel with guest speakers were Taz Riot, founder of Freeport, and Jan Spiekermann, co-founder of Ethos Island. ## **The speakers represent their own views and not the views of The Seasteading Institute.** Taz Riot formed Freeport in 2016 and followed international procedure to announce it to the UN. Freeport helped provide humanitarian aid to Sierra Leone during an Ebola virus outbreak, working with NGOs is a way to be recognized as a micronation by the UN. Jan Spiekermann holds the title of Knight of the Order of the Melting Mountain, Grand Duchy of Flandrensis. Flandrensis is an environmental nonprofit organization that uses micronationalism to raise awareness for climate change and Antarctica. Micronations have some autonomy but not necessarily sovereignty. They build parallel structures to existing nations. Micronations can have varying recognition from the UN. Microstate or city state is the name for something like a micronation that does have recognition from the UN. The guests and participants talk about the strategy of forming a micronation for seasteads, Rose Island, and Sealand. Audio editing by Lyka Sherylle Mae Rambac.…

Catching up with Ben Silone of ArkTide 55:50

Season 5 of the Seasteading Today Podcast will be a little different. Our monthly Seasteading Social events have been hosted on Zoom and posted on YouTube for a couple years. Each Social featuresh a guest speaker to talk about their work that is related to seasteading. This year, we moved those events to the TSI Discord Server and are recording them for this podcast. Unfortunately, the audio quality of these first two episodes is a little rough, but the conversations are inspiring, so I hope you’ll enjoy them anyway! Future episodes will have much cleaner audio. In January 2023, we talked with Ben Silone, CEO and Co-founder of Arktide, about the Domestead project. Why is Puerto Rico an ideal place to start a Seastead company? Why did they change the design from a single-family structure to a 100-meter dome? We take questions from the audience. Ben explains how minerals available in seawater can potentially be used in 3D printing. Ben invites seasteaders to move to Puerto Rico to help with supervising and publicizing the build of their platform. Ben's goal is to allow a group of 10 people to be able to buy a platform. See pictures of the Arktide design on the # Arktide channel of our Discord server. Audio editing by Jie Flowers. Join our next Seasteading Social event at seasteading.org/events.
