"Never
underestimate the power of a small group of people to change
the world.
In fact it is the only way it ever has." Margaret
Mead
.....We
can change the world through Social
Engineering.
This simple message is to and for those seeking
solutions to the issues of the day, the moment, the week,
the year, the century, the millennia as well as for the
timeless times yet to come. My nickname, "Dr. Dan" has
been with me since I was eight years old and so I have a
legitimate claim to the name. Now, although I am not a
doctor, I can hold forth and do so here and now for the
betterment of those seeking, as I said, a way forward, to
resolve the raft of global issues that seem, at this
moment, intractable, as the legendary Gordian Knot.
.....
I
am intent upon problem solving and, this site evolved out
of my one other: Creative
Ideas Consulting of San
Francisco.
I
am embarking on an effort to affect the warp and woof of
our social fabric so as to promote a healthy change in
the evolution of the human civilization or community on
this wonderful world of ours, Earth!

Much
more is coming, but see the links below, for a sample of
large scale imagineering, flights of a fancy, and then,
rest assured, that help is on the way. All

Mars

This
is a simple idea, really, however complex and
transformative it might be for the human community on
Earth.
Living

This
is the terraforming of this world for a "planet B" as
it were.
The
Propositions,
These proposals mean
to secure social change. Although, for now, there are
only four, both have global reach and import.

Lighter
than Air Flight and
Experiences?
Yes,
there are ideas that are as innovative and as worthy
of an dreamer's eye. The Skyack, a kyack of the air,
the Skychair, the highest highchair imaginable and the
Skysleeper, dreaming of the clouds while being in and
amongst them, exciting, you bet, challenging for the
engineer or researcher, yes to both, entrancing to
those of means, I'd just about bet on it!
There are inventive ideas of interest to the tinkerer,
inventor, the curious, the "gonzo" engineer, perhaps.
These ideas are for those interested in
Human
Powered Vehicles.
Primate
Musicology
This
is a speculative concept, I think worthy of
consideration. Can primates,baboons, gorillas and
chimpanzees, for example, be taught music and what
would the effect of that effort bring to them?
There are several other interesting ideas if you are
seeking out large-scale thesis projects that have to
do with encouraging societal evolution. At Creative
Ideas we
believe the future is part of the present and those
who will shape it are reading these
ideas.

Social
Engineering
is the
practical study, research and development, theorizing,
experimentation and trials of methods and means by
which a society becomes self-aware. super-conscious,
and capable of redesigning its structures, operations,
practices, management, to the benefit of the entire
body politic of a nation state or global civilization.
This site is dedicated to ideas that would facilitate
positive societal change. These ideas are free to use,
research, experiment upon, with, and so on.

Social
Change via the "People's Poll." This is the heart of
iVote
- a system, a proposal, that would allow
the people to do their own grassroots sourced polling
at every level from the neighborhood to the globe. We,
the people, will then ask the questions, tally the
responses and have a complete work around government
propaganda, corporate news, and the raft of talking
heads all of whom have an interest in forming the
opinions, beliefs, and decisions of the people. There
is a way out of the morass in which we find ourselves
and we have the means to make our will known - iVote
power to the people!
Women's
Empowerment a way forward for social evolution,
progress, peace and
prosperity!
The
Plant Works
This is social engineering on a person to person basis
taking on homelessness, the hungry, destitute, and
joblessness.
The Global
Open Mic (GOM) is a place where live
streaming open mic poetry venues can be found. The
current listing is here: Global
Open Mic
but I'd like to find more, no matter where they are
located. As I do, I'll add them on. I ask that people
put the hosts of venues in touch with me, via email,
or let me know who to contact. The listing can include
poetry open mics, discussions, roundtables, webinars,
and so on, as long as they are regularly scheduled by
the week or month. Imagine - anyone being able to
enjoy live poetry - any time they wish! If you
have questions or ideas please email
me.

Businesses,
Although the idea is not new some of these particulars
may be. It is worth a few minutes to read and maybe
you'll find something you like something that you can
do, something that gets the creative juices flowing
and then something that is worth trying, even
something that works, for you
