Media Files==== Superstruct ==== Report by Martin Brolin about activities in the Superstruct [[ARG]]. == What is Superstruct? == It's the world's first massively multiplayer forecasting game. * 5 supertreats are identified for the year 2019, GEAS volunteers (players) are joining in this game to find solutions. * You can file a report about your 2019 experiences (story) * you can discuss strategies * you can find new ways to collaborate, or build solutions (superstruct) == My activities == * filed a report about how an organization (Tsunamipants Un-Ltd.) has grown from a movement of part-time survival-engineering enthusiasts to become the worlds leading knowledge base on portable solutions to surviving extreme weather, disease and guerilla warfare. * Joined Urban Gardening initiatives and set up Superstructs for protection of urban gardens from poaching and bio-piracy. * Set up initiative to connect Urban gardens with green corridors for pollinators. * Set up 'GEAS volunteers coordination Superstructs' for all continents and one for international waters. * Put out call for 'First Aid hacks' among amateur survival engineers. * First medical hack: the Darun Setan ZD-314 series of fruitjuicers can be hacked as an Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrilator. * Second medical hack: Nasal purifier can be made from: http://www.cpapman.com/DREAMFIT.JPG * Report: Botanical sanctuaries and national parks are plundered for possible cure against ReDS (a disease in 2019). * Report: The Association of European Zoo-s is organizing a quarantine of all primates against ReDS to Gibraltar. * Joined P2P Medical Care superstruct. * Report: Fruitfly navigated ReDS reconnaissance ROV, blueprints available for fabbers. == Interesting ideas in the Game == * hacking homo sapience: ways we can exploited our own primate behaviours. * criticism against the prolific use of urban gardening and solarpanels as solutions to all problems everywhere. * most activity until day 4 is mainly targeting niche problems or very general philosophy, the organizational stuff looks very Western, with a lot of fabbing, hacking and gardening involved. The stories that are written are very personal, while the strategic things are written rather dry and impersonal. * Cross-species-politics: artificial intelligence, human enhancement and human rights for all Great apes diffuse old borders. * Viral sovereignty: any pathogen found local to a state (whether existing in nature or engineered) is the inherent intellectual property of that state. * Cross-Species Politics: obvious. == My observations == * This looks like much more text-based than I thought and there is very little contact between players so far. * Some people use the game to promote their site / idea, I guess I do that too, I've put my survival engineering research in there. * Third day of the game the first criticism of 'unrealistic' forecasting has appeared. I view this as the first signs of real discussion. * The actual superstructing is quite ineffective, you set up your kind of structure for people to join. Then some join it, and then nothing happens any more. Within this superstructing-set-up there is not enough infrastructure for people to work together. == Game technical points == * player-skills should have been searchable so you can connect to people you need.Please fill all the letters into the box to prove you're human.
