lostboyevsky - vinay gupta speaks lyrics
[interlude: vinay gupta]
i made a rule for myself about 15 years ago that i wouldn’t do anything for money that i wasn’t willing to do for free. and that kept me focused, really entirely on the hardcore, world-changing stuff. and when i could get paid for it, i got paid for it, and when i couldn’t get paid for it, i didn’t
how do we then provide enough natural resources, processed in a correct way, to every human being, so that no one dies of poverty
ha, the potential, right? the potential. what could happen if it all works?
the reason we can’t seem to get sensible policy out of the world is because we have two-hundred or three-hundred or five-hundred year old institutions running on archaic technology. i mean, can you imagine if the transportation system was locked at a two-hundred year-old level of technology in the same way that the political system is locked at two-hundred years-old?
if there is evidence, the decision should be made on the basis of the evidence
slow, methodical, diligent work toward the long-term freeing of humanity from fear
because we basically got into this idea that the unknown was for eating. the unknown was not for resting on, it was not for staring at, it was not for worshiping, it was for eating. we will eat the unknown and we’re gonna make silence with it
in an age when, you know, some pissed off palestinian fifteen year-old can print out a copy of the small pox virus in twenty years and just release it
you know, i really wonder sometimes whether the entire kind of surface of the war on terror that we see on the news is actually just a cover for something that is out to [?] biological weapons
could you figure out how to make a [?] with no waste? i know, it’s sort of like, “ah, certainly an interesting question.” and i spent about six moths off and on trying to optimize [?] math. didn’t get anywhere with it, gave up, “this is too hard, don’t know how to do it.” six years later when i was in colorado someone asked me, “could you make a refuge shelter that could be taken apart, transported, and then put back up again?”, and about fifteen minutes later i had the hexayurt on the back of a napkin
we’re taking the shared stuff of humanity and we’re mangling it in ways that are absolutely undemocratic. because the people effected by the mangling of the climate are not actually getting a vote on what happens
it seems improper to me, at a very basic level, that anyone should die for a lack of stuff within the parameters of the material stuff that every human being could have without depriving anyone of their basic stuff
i haven’t even talked about how the rising tide of technology is going to pull people out of poverty in twenty years, but it is
it could all work put pretty well. you know, this whole mars thing is running along excellently
the knowledge that we might wipe ourselves out has gotten really deeply soaked into our deep minds
because we don;t seem to have the ability to say, “no”, to technology, we always build it. i think it would be nice to have the sixty-million people that are currently in refugee camps into really nice little pod houses. it’s just, we could do it
we need this to survive as a species, because we’ve got to deal with global warming, nano-technology, bio-technology, ten-billion human beings sharing a little planet, and the politics of interstellar, well interplanetary and then interstellar colonization. all that’s happening in your lifetime and mine
there’s a kind of traditional, new-age certainty that there’s a kind of, you know, species-level awakening coming, and all the rest of this sort of stuff. you know that sort of terence mckenna vibe, and i’m sure you’ve heard that until you are just purple in the ears. i don;t think it’s that and i don’t think it’s marx’s historical inevitability, or any of that stuff. what i think is coming is a species-level panic response. “oh my god! we’re all gonna die! we have to work together to avoid all dying!” there’s a book called ‘paradise built in hell’ about spontaneous cooperation after large-scale natural disasters, and i think there is a pretty decent chance that we’re going to experience a moment like that in response to the man-made disasters that we are currently being delivered
