Resources

The idea for the Memory Of The Future Project came about as I realized I knew of only a few examples in literature, arts or film that portrayed healthy working futures for human beings and Planet Earth. I was able to think of many examples of dismal future visions in books and film and I believe those examples become a kind of path of least resistance that draws us toward them like a magnet if we are not consciously steering ourselves. So we need a new map. We need to become mapmakers.

The Mission of the Memory of the Future Project:

• To recognize that we can access our most desired future through memory, dreams, visualization, brainstorming, heartstorming...
• To declare we are the creators and co-creators of our world.
• To inspire ourselves and each other to build new muscles of trust in what can be, and to cultivate community in the process.
• To start creating.

This site will offer you:

• Inspiring words, images, video and music.
• Examples of vibrant futures in the arts, in design and innovation, and in models that are working out in the world.
• Resources, tools and exercises to assist in bringing forth your most desired future.
• Links to amazing organizations and projects that are dedicated to creating a thriving future.
• Inspiring and fun products. (in the works)

Let’s Collaborate:

• Share your wisdom, ideas, resources, articles.
• Share examples you’ve found of healthy futures in literature, film, music, art.
• Share examples you’ve found of innovative models for living, and solutions to challenges.
• Post comments or be a guest blogger.
• Collaborate on products for the store.
• Let me know about products you think I should link to.

I'm a songwriter, singer, composer and producer, and have created three CDs of original music. I believe everything is possible, that beauty will save the world, and that as humans we need community with each other and with all life. I've recently moved to Berkeley, CA and am in the process of adopting a child, finding a partner, and finding new friends and community. You can find out more about the music at saralovell.com.
