Gaming the Future: The Book!

 

FUND GREAT FUTURES THIS GIVING TUESDAY:
HELP US REACH OUR $45K CHALLENGE GRANT

 

The Foresight fundraising rocket is on its way, and now there is only one week left until this year’s Giving Tuesday. Consider becoming a Foresight member or increasing your support to help us meet our $45k challenge grant. You can follow the progress the Foresight fundraising rocket on its journey to the moon here. Currently we’re at $5k!

Interest in our programs is increasing rapidly. In 2021, we hit 10K Youtube subscribers, doubled the size of our technical groups, doubled the size of our fellowship applications, accepted three accelerator projects for additional support, and launched several in-person meetings around the world.

Below you’ll see 2021 progress, and a wishlist you can select from to indicate your goals for Foresight in 2022. We gratefully receive contributions to individual areas — or perhaps you’re the world changer that can fund the entire stack?

Each area has its individual Btc & Eth addresses and you can direct credit card donations to a specific area. We’ll remove the node when it’s funded. If your preferred 2022 project does not reach its minimum target, your donation will be put toward the most closely-related project. You can also give other crypto coins, or contact usfor individual arrangements.

If you donate crypto, contact us to let us know so we can welcome you into the community. Otherwise, we’ll be in touch after your donation to learn how you’d like to collaborate.

2021 PROGRESS & 2022 OPPORTUNITIES

 

 

Support progress on atomically precise control of matter

Molecular-Machines-2021-11-09-pdf

  • Our Molecular Machines track coordinates scientists, funders, and institutional allies in advancing molecular machines for applications in energy, medicine, and material science and atomically precise control of matter.
  • Explore our annual report, the seminar summaries, or the table of Molecular Machine Devices for 2022 focus areas. Your support lets us produce seminar summaries and make them publicly available in 2022. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

Support progress on biotechnology and rejuvenation

2021-Foresight-Biotech-Health-Extension-Seminars-pdf

  • Our Biotech & Health Extension track consists of scientists, entrepreneurs, and funders advancing novel approaches for reversing aging and extending human healthspans.
  • Explore our annual report, the individual seminar summaries, or this longevity technology analysis for a preview of 2022 focus areas. Your support lets us produce seminar summaries and make them publicly available in 2022. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

Support progress on secure decentralized cooperation

2021-Foresight-Intelligent-Cooperation-Seminars-pdf

  • Our Intelligent Cooperation program focuses on using tools from computer security, cryptography, cryptocommerce, and related fields to secure and improve voluntary cooperation across humans and other intelligences.
  • Explore the annual report or the individual seminar summaries. Your support lets us produce seminar summaries and make them publicly available in 2022. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

Fund fellowships for biotechnology, molecular machines, decentralized computing

 

  • Congratulations to our our 2021 fellows and accelerator winners advancing biotechnology, molecular machines, and computing for the benefit of life! 
  • Applications for our 2022 fellow are oversubscribed. Your support allows us to increase the number of biotechnology, molecular machines and computing fellows we can support though travel stipends, mentorship, and professional exposure. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

Fund neurotechnology and space technology tracks

 

  • In addition to continuing our existing technical tracks, we’re opening two tracks to support early-stage work in neurotechnology and space technology.
  • Your contributions support seminar production and capture in these tracks. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

 

Fund early-stage prizes in rejuvenation, computer security, neurotechnology

 

  • Congratulations to our 2021 Feynman Prize winners Ken Houk, UCLA, and Anne-Sophie Duwez, University of Liege! 
  • Since 1993, you’ve enabled Foresight to award the Feynman Prize to reward ambitious nanotechnology work. The mechanism works well: our 2007 awardee received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2016. Your contribution supports similar prizes to speed up early-stage work in rejuvenation, computer security, or brain computer interfaces. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

Fund tech trees to match early-stage science with funding and talent

 

  • There are many areas in biotechnology, molecular machines, and neurotechnology that could benefit from support. For outside funding and talent it can be hard to to find out to help. To aid coordination, technology trees provide an overview of the field, existing work and open challenges. 
  • Through our technical groups, we’ll generate biotechnology, molecular machines, and neurotechnology trees for each field. Long-term, these trees may integrate across domains. This longevity tech tree is a first prototype and this white paper explains how we’re expanding it. Your contribution helps us speed up the process. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

Fund collaboration across molecular machines and longevity

 

  • To facilitate interdisciplinary progress that is unincentivized in standard institutional settings, we hold annual technical competitions focused on the intersection of technologies, e.g. Atomic Precision for Longevity, Molecular Machines for Materials Science, Atomic Precision for Healing the Planet. 
  • Your contribution helps sponsor a 2022 competition for leveraging molecular machines to develop new tools for longevity progress. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

Fund LAB Gallery: collect art to fund early-stage science

 

  • Science, especially when early stage and interdisciplinary, faces two problems: 1. It’s hard to communicate. 2. Funding relies on complicated legacy institutions that take a big cut.
  • Foresight’s LAB gallery pairs artists and scientists to inspire interest in science through art. By collecting the NFT art piece, anyone can become a direct patron of a brilliant scientist. Your support funds monthly exhibitions of fundable science in biotechnology, molecular machines, neurotechnology, and computing. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.

 

Sponsor global Existential Hope meetups

 

  • We have grown a global community of scientists and technologists wanting to collaborate on positive futures. Many offered to host regular meetings across the US and Europe and we had first gatherings in Berlin, France, and Portugal.
  • Your contribution supports organizers hosting meetups. Donate via Credit Card & Paypal.
