We are pleased to update you on our Center for Resource Management. We are also interested in hearing from you if you are a professional in the area of Data-Driven Decisions. Need a gift idea this time of year? Here is your opportunity to give a gift that could add to someone’s knowledge.

Center for Resource Management

Much is taking place around our plans for the Center for Resource Management, a comprehensive development for education, Research & Development, and devoted to the introduction, planning and development of a global Resource Based Economy. The new center will introduce this social alternative through educational programs in the central dome, along with ‘The Museum of the Future’. It will also house facilities for producing a diverse array of media to help further these aims through films, a CGI studio, and an arts and music center. The entire facility will be designed to be as self-sustaining as possible, with onsite acute medical care, single and multi-unit condos, food and electrical production capacities, waste and storm management, and water reclamation. Facilities management cannot be overlooked and will be provided for with repair and machining shops, as well as logistics support for all full-time residents and visitors, the 27+ main buildings, and support infrastructure. It will operate like a leading edge, green university campus, including R&D, architectural, engineering, and research facilities, all immersed in beautiful lush landscaping with winding ponds, and biking and walking paths.

We have had an overwhelming response since we put out the call for volunteer Architects, Engineers, and Technicians to produce the digital files and technical specification for this new complex. There are currently 109 Architects, Engineers, and Technicians registered in the project who are engaged in planning and programming through collaborative Urban Planning and Building Design Technical Teams. This also includes an R&D team to help facilitate the statistical and scientific decision-making processes of the project. If you would like to learn more or get involved, we welcome your participation.

Gift Ideas

If you are giving gifts this time of year, please consider giving people a different way of thinking at the same time while browsing through our store items. Recommended is Jacque Fresco’s book The Best That Money Can’t Buy in a hard copy or e-book. We also have this available as an e-book in Russian. You may want to give a special person one or several of Jacque Fresco’s 16 streaming lectures to pick from. They cover topics such as Free Will, Conflict Resolution, Human Behavior, Education, Creativity, Depression, and much more.
