Action Plan

I have illustrated today's blog entry with an image named "Action Plan." It dramatizes the ideal of being in a virtual environment with a purpose in mind like the Facebook Worldwide Artist Search.


We will use our Facebook group page, "Planet Earth 2.0," as the creative tool for our search and discovery mission. From its strategic position in the vast global environment of Facebook, with your help it will work as follows:

• Our Recent News section will keep up with the beat of the search and provide updates and breaking news items.
• Our Discussion Board section will provide pertinent information including the guidelines for the artist/ambassador selection process and it will serve as a question and answer forum.
• The Wall section is the bulletin board for members to post all of their search happenings
• Our ancillary websites (planetearth2point0.com, wpmp.net and tiite.com) will operate as outlined in my previous blog.

Since this kind of search has never been done before, there will be a lot to learn and many opportunities for us to work together while we learn how to to go about it better. The main thing is that we have a great resource, an urgent global mission and a fascinating game to play while exploring the strength of our virtual friendship and our personal commitment for a new world.

My dear friends,Planet Earth 2.0 is a very real way for us to learn how to re-frame the context of life in our world. We are responding creatively on a parallel course to the stale expectations from a failed worldview (Planet Earth 1.0) that has already delivered all of its promise.

In fact we are generating the environment where a parallel culture can take hold and provide home to people from different walks of life and specializations who are disenfranchised by Planet Earth 1.0 because their ideas cannot operate there. But, Planet Earth 2.0 is a better fit.

The Facebook Worldwide Artist Search is a new adventure in social media. The Kick-off will take place on September 25, 2009. Allow me to offer you a brief recap of the overall initiative.

Recap

The Facebook Worldwide Artist Search is a collaborative activity by Facebook friends around the world to find 183 artists from 183 nations to be their ambassadors for the Worldwide Peace Marker Project (WPMP.)

WPMP is a work of a new type of art called "Data A" art that is relevant to the mission of Planet Earth 2.0. Data A art celebrates a new relationship between humanity and Nature as partners in the creation of a new world.

Action is activity directed towards a purpose and ours is to begin the groundwork for a world that future generations can sustain and a planet that can sustain future generations.

For that groundwork to be effective it cannot be prepared with wishes and promises. we must build self evident landmarks that indicate and leave no doubt that a totally new alternative for humanity is at play.

As we will discover, the global delegation of 198 Artist/Ambassadors together with the Peace Marker landmark that they will place on their national soil will constitute evidence to support two completely new experiences for humanity.

First, through their collaborative work with WPMP, the presence of 198 artists as ambassadors who represent 6.6 billion people from all of the sovereign nations of the world becomes proof that that we can work globally as a single species.

Second, that individual peace markers at each of the 198 nations in the world placed there through such collaboration, clearly demonstrates that a point of peace exists in all nations and, therefore, a first quantitative model of world peace is created by humanity.

What makes WPMP such a landmark in human relations is the fact that, for the first time in our history, art can finally remove the veil between "wishing" for peace and having a new kind of tangible "culture" of world peace established that can exist both in our minds and heart and on the ground where we can all experience, nourish and cultivate it from then on.

We will kick-off the Facebook Worldwide Artist Search on Friday September 25.
