After thoughtful reflection, we have made the decision to dissolve Sovereign Nature Initiative, which was devoted with a three-year mandate, to merge nature with digital ecosystems and introduce online communities to ecological stewardship whilst developing novel funding mechanisms for vital biodiversity protection and restoration.
We are immensely proud of what we have achieved, having funded important work of our partners and distributed immersive digital products to over 1 million supporters.
We explored every path with purpose and passion, fueled by a vision for an economy where digital and ecological worlds meet. While we believe the timing for this initiative was ahead of the curve, we remain deeply committed to its potential. If you are passionate about this vision and would like to explore future opportunities, we would love to hear from you (roots@sovereignnature.com).
Sincerely,
The Sovereign Nature Team
I like to think (and
the sooner the better!)
of a cybernetic meadow
where mammals and computers
live together in mutually
programming harmony
like pure water
touching clear sky.
I like to think
(right now, please!)
of a cybernetic forest
filled with pines and electronics
where deer stroll peacefully
past computers
as if they were flowers
with spinning blossoms.
I like to think
(it has to be!)
of a cybernetic ecology
where we are free of our labors
and joined back to nature,
returned to our mammal
brothers and sisters,
and all watched over
by machines of loving grace.
