BONITA, CA - June 27, 2007 - What do monks in Ireland, scientists in
Germany, craftsmen in Rwanda, women washing clothes in France, Polish
veterinarians, Swiss florists, Japanese kindergartners, gorillas in
Spain, and truckers in the U.S. all have in common? They're all
featured in live streaming video on a new website,
WorldMindNetwork.net, sponsored by World Mind Network, an
organization which seeks to link people everywhere through internet
technology.
The 'world mind' is a concept that originated with philosophers like
James Lovelock and Teilhard de Chardin, who saw that increased
communications are making the human race look like one vast
interconnected brain. The site's founders use the Internet to
display just how true this has become. They found themselves
intrigued by the explosion of webcams worldwide, and the latest
technological improvements which make live streaming video available
even in hostile environments like the Antarctic and Papua New Guinea.
Historically, webcams have generally been devoted to two things: porn,
and teenagers ogling each other while chatting online. Why not,
thought the founders of World Mind Network, use the technology to
display things that are hardly ever seen by anyone, even the most
experienced tourist? Why not publicize worthy research projects, age-
old lifestyles, new art forms, and tribal cultures on the verge of
extinction?
The founders of World Mind Network drew up a list such which includes
artisans in India and Africa engaging in centuries-old art forms,
monks in monasteries chanting and praying, farmers pursuing
sustainable agriculture, musicians in the midst of recording,
interesting research experiments that lend themselves to live video,
astronauts working inside the International Space Station, and so on.
They even have a link to an audio file converted from the background
radiation of the original Big Bang. In less than an hour, a site
visitor can visit real-time happenings in 20 countries, listen to
gossip from across the ocean, and participate in a legitimate
scientific research project through distributed computing.
The site is strictly for education and entertainment, there is nothing
to buy or sell. You can learn more by contacting the founders of
