Do you have an incredible idea for the Future of Asgardia?

Maybe a robotic powered aquaponics lab?

A concept for station design?

Space Transport?

The list could go on forever but ill cut to the chase.

There is a Playstation 4 title about to be released under the name DreamsPS4.

Ok hold up, your probably thinking what does a video game have to do with anything related to Designing our future.

Its simple. Dreams PS4 is no ordinary game.

Dreams is a full creative tool, You are able to create anything imaginable in a 3d space. This does not just include 3d modeling. The Robotic powered aquaponics lab i mentioned. You wont just be able to create a static 3d environment and model of your idea. You are given logic tools, these tools will enable to you to animate and configure systems to your specifications. Want to demo how the system would work. Simply animate the robots to perform there duties down the the second. at watch it unfold before your eyes. The concept of dreams is making them a reality. You are able to create your very own full functioning game made with assets you or others create.

Did you catch that? Others. Dreams will be a fully functioning multiplayer title.

Do you and another Asgardian have a great idea and want to collaborate? Not a problem! jump in their dream and get to work! I believe that this title would help us so much in achieving our early conceptional ideas. a PS4 right now is listing for black friday at 199 USD.. I bring up the price for a very good reason. This Game will be able to do what programs like Maya, blender and other programs can do and 10X more. 3d modeling, visual logic coding, make your own music and sounds, and stitch them all together to make your dream a reality. The price point, PS4 compared to a PC capable of doing this very thing will likely cost you 4-6 times the cost of the PS4.

But it gets so much better!

But dude, this is cool but its just on a screen. I want to be able to show off my designs, hold my concepts in my hand.

DreamsPS4 confirmed at a conference about a year ago, that your creations WILL be able to be exported to a 3D printer. Design in PS4 print your dream, make it reality.

Reality... Did you catch that?

Hmmm.. I almost forgot.. Reality. Dreams PS4 Will become VR compatible! This is said to not be available at launch but will be included soon after.

Asgardians.. This will be an amazing opportunity to collaborate and create the very groundwork for our Great Nation! Laying out the very blueprints for our future together.. Land cannot separate us, this Project will help us come together. Debate, Create, And share our DREAMS.

Also don't be fooled by the painterly style of the art and designs.. Its just typically the most preferred style of the devs.. You can make it look as clean cut and futuristic as you can think.

Below are some links of videos, ill just leave a few, you will be able to find several more in the suggestions.

Let the discussion begin! What do you all think?

The first one i would like to post is the Reveal of the title.

I'm one of the new members of the Asgardian community, but I'm hesitating to become citizen for a few reasons that I'll lay out in this blog.

I'm looking for feedback, as I'm sure I'm not the first one struggling with the questions I have.

But let me start with saying that I'm very impressed by the main ideas behind the constitution and its supreme values. I adore the will to improve the world and mankind promoting unity, equality, freedom, tolerance, morality, just to name a few pillars. These are qualities that are lacking in most of the world. These ground principles are a sound foundation for a better world, not to forget space as well.

I do however have some reservations about the constitution.

My main problem is that you have to accept the constitution as it is to become a citizen. Generally speaking, that is not an unreasonable requirement. In this case however, because the nation and its constitution are so new, it very well may be that there are some sticky points that may need some polishing before requiring to adopt the constitution as it is.

My main reservations are about taxes, and political parties. A lesser reservation is about the lack of rules around weapons. Let's take them one by one.

Taxes

The constitution states that Asgardian citizens shall pay voluntarily established taxes and levies in accordance with Asgardia’s laws. By itself, that is not an unreasonable obligation, as every state has its taxation system. The problem is that the laws do not exist yet. Therefor you don't know what you're signing up for.

Political Parties

Asgardia has no place for political parties, says the constitution. As far as I know, there are no democracies that do not have political parties. The few states that tried, saw they efforts falter. A state without parties is de facto a one party state - the party of the government. More often than not does a state with a one party system slip into a totalitarianism. And as we all know, there are very few well functioning totalitarian regimes.

Weapons

Asgardian citizens possess the right of peaceful and unarmed assembly, without prior approval, states the constitution. Other than in this one sentence, there is no mention about arms. That absence leads me to think that there is tolerance for regular citizens to be armed when not assembled. Needless to say that this leads to much unnecessary loss of life, be it accidentally or intentional.

I wish there were a way to adapt the constitution, so that it would alleviate my reservations.

If you have similar reservations, and you were able to overcome them in some way, I'd like very much to hear about how you went about that.

With all the excitement and volumes of news around Asgardia, I thought I would repost here in my parliament office, a link to my recent interview by Helena Aramendia, MP, as she provides a personal perspective of Asgardia's Members of Parliament to the followers, residents and friends of Asgardia.   Find out more about my background, my views and my work on behalf of this space nation...it's an honor and privilege to represent you!  Here's the asgardia.space link:

Нет никакой  конкретики о планах развития государства. Очень сложно обещать людям  светлое будущее но не говорить как это будет достигнуто.

К сожалению пока проект напоминает кампанию Алексея Навального.
Я  очень надеюсь что в будущем будет больше конкретики и деталей. Пока  вижу только неработающие ссылки, отсутствие русского языка и  невозможность связаться с кем-то кроме волонтеров (потому, что во вконтакте мне отвечают именно они и они как правило даже не знают на  кого работают)

Но я искренне верю в будущее Асгардии и буду и дальше следить за ее  развитием, надеюсь я смогу оказаться полезной в будущем, когда появится  сформированное "техническое задание" и распределятся роли.
Пока все  настолько сыро, я не обладаю достаточной информацией чтобы четко и  уверенно говорить с потенциальными избирателями, а при недостатке  информации есть слишком большие риски скомпромитировать проект еще на  стадии образования.

Обратите внимание как  говорят представители Асгардии во вконтакте - в большинстве своем они  льют воду о светлом будущем и все их слова напоминают слова фанатиков  убеждающих идти за ними в рай, но что такое рай и какое в нем место  занимают те или иные люди и что они там будут делать никто не говорит.

Не удивительно что сейчас Асгардию сравнивают с МММ. Я надеялась что  кандидатам в меры предоставят хотя бы какие-то агитационные и  информационные материалы, с четкими планами, стратегией и "техническим  заданием", а в итоге получилось "регистрируйся и иди привлекай народ",  вы представляете как я могу напривлекать народ не зная ничего? Саратов -  город миллионник но в нем есть ряд основных новостных ресурсов которые с  радостью бы опубликовали новость "Житель Саратова стал первым  кандидатом в мэры космического государства!". За этим неизменно последует  оооочень много вопросов, комментариев и скептики. И я, без должной  подготовки, просто на весь город опозорю целое государство.

Нельзя выпускать настолько неподготовленных кандидатов в свет, но и подготовкой кандидатов почему-то никто не занимается.

В связи с вышесказанным я сняла свою кандидатуру с голосования, но я по прежнему буду активно следить за развитием Асгардии и принимать посильное участие в жизни государства.

Finding a study that seems to redefine reality is a rarity, and a provocative article by physics professor Vitaly Vanchurin of the University of Minnesota Duluth (USA), available in prepress, revaluates exactly our reality in an extremely peculiar way by indicating that we and everything in the universe “at its most fundamental level [is] a neural network.” For decades, researchers have been trying to reconcile general relativity with quantum mechanics without much success. In Einstein's relativity time is relative, but absolute in quantum mechanics. Vanchurin proposes that artificial neural networks exhibit behaviors similar to both theories of physics. He explains that quantum mechanics “is a remarkably successful paradigm for modeling physical phenomena on a wide range of scales” and that “it is widely believed that at the most fundamental level the entire universe is governed by the rules of quantum mechanics and even gravity should somehow emerge from it,” the researcher states.“We're not just saying that artificial neural networks can be useful for analyzing physical systems or for discovering physical laws, we're saying that's how the world around us actually works,” it states in the study. “In this regard, it can be considered a proposal for the theory of everything, and as such it should be easy to prove it wrong."In an interview for Futurism Vanchurin explained a little more about his peculiar idea. According to the physicist when a neural network has a very large number of neurons its behavior can be described very well by equations of classical quantum mechanics, which explains how the physical world works. In the article the physicist explores the possibility that the fundamental structure of everything that exists is a microscopic neural network from which everything emerges; both quantum mechanics (which explains the behavior of very small things), and general relativity (which explains how very large things behave). In a previous article on machine learning, the researcher tried to use statistical methods to understand how neural networks behave, but eventually discovered that, in certain aspects, they are many similar to the dynamics of quantum mechanics which led him to explore the idea that the physical world may be a neural network. According to the recent article The Theory can be proved incorrect and "all that is necessary [would be] to find a physical phenomenon that [cannot] be described by neural networks"” When asking the obligatory question, whether the theory of the universe as a neural network means that we live in a simulation the physicist replied that " no, we live in a neural network, but we may never know the difference."
