Welcome to the Missive Project

Human civilization is arguably in early stages of a catastrophic, global collapse to be followed by a desperately dark age.

Against that possibility the Missive Project aims to preserve and transmit 'unpackable' kernels of knowledge with the goal of facilitating Renaissance.

Welcome to the Missive Project


Global civilization is undergoing large-scale traumas on several fronts. Whether it can survive these in a functional way is a matter of heated debate. I'm one who is persuaded that, in the reasonably near future, it is likely that a catastrophic, global collapse will occur, followed by a desperately dark age.

Against that possibility the Missive Project aims to generate a secular 'Book of Knowledge', transmissible and accessible to future, dark age generations in hope of Renaissance.

It's intended content will include core kernels of knowledge to be unpacked by future investigators, embodying starting points and methods for rediscovering the body of scientific knowledge. In addition, it may include maxims of wisdom, particularly where such have been hard-learned.

For more about the project, please explore the page links in the left-hand bar.

Posts on this blog will be organized by select labels... to pursue any particular aspect, please choose from the labels list displayed on the lower left-hand bar.

Civil comments are welcome, though I won't often be able to respond. They'll be of most use if kept topical... that is to say, seek out the particular post or page to which your comment relates.
