The Portal Group exists to facilitate community projects in service to the ideas expressed by [[Eric Weinstein]] on [[The Portal Podcast]] and elsewhere. We use [https://discord.gg/TDbpwzz Discord] to organize and communicate, and we track projects on <!-- [https://www.google.com/ a custom database] and --> [[Projects|the wiki]]. We have also developed a [https://users.theportal.wiki/ user database] to keep track of the community's skills and interests, and we use [https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/16RkHA5OS1tYmsoQ4ldFzWGidZzDiUX26 Google Drive] to store files.

<!-- Return to the future. I think what we need to do is to start dreaming much more aggressively, dream much bigger, and start dreaming in public with each other, harmoniously if we can, or have our dreams fight each other, but at least start unlocking the potential of human imagination and not immediately grounding every new idea in some sort of race to see whether we can invalidate it, give it enough of a room to grow.
What we're going to do in this program is effectively to declare war. War on stasis. War on group think. War on everything that has enervated our society, and we're going to do it because we have the ability now to compete with the networks that previously grew up to distribute whatever it was that was portrayed as sense-making.
What we need to do is to return to our own future. -->
