After a year holed up trying to figure out my ikigai, I'm ready for some movement. I've been working on possible plans for the summer. My dream at this point is to:
Everything hinges on the art project idea. A project that uses interesting technology could be written up as a thesis. A project written in open source could be a part of Summer of Code. A project about humanity's long-term survival could appeal to the Singularity Institute. So, all I need is an interesting open source art project about the future that fits in the theme "Metropolis".
What I want to do is a Flash Pass bred with an AI. You might have seen the Flash Pass or one of its cousins at your local amusement park. The idea is you get a list of what ride is available when, you make your reservation and when your time come you show up and ride.
