Pepperomia: Warm Day at Harbin, 'Do Nothing' Liberation, 'Always on' Web, Book Proposals

The day was warm at Harbin with lots of people on the sun deck, and in the pools, and all around, - mostly naked. It's nearly summer again, and a beautiful scene.

There's a quality of life apart at Harbin ... where people do nothing and this is liberating :), ~ a pace of life like living in forests and parkland for so many millions of years, as our ancestors most likely did.


**

Time is curious with the 'always on' internet, - it's a real time world wide communication network, where there seems to be a lot more 'now,' than there was before the internet

I see 3 projects ahead after my Harbin ethnographic project {and in addition to developing World University and School}, all with digital, virtual world aspects {ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy}.


1

An overland Hippie trail ethnography to India, starting in the Haight Ashbury area of San Francisco ...


2

Hippies in India, following the Ramayana epic trail through the south of India, and then to Sri Lanka {Hanuman}, but including Kerala.


3

An ethnographic study of loving bliss, by finding those individuals who seem to elicit this readily and in full measure. Ammaji might be an example ...



Proposals for all of these projects for publishers to come ...

I think a Lonely Planet-like Guide to the Hippie Trail will be fascinating to write :)
