WILLI PAUL'S BIO -

Willi worked for several City Planning Departments including the City of Minneapolis, Neighborhood Revitalization Program, the City of St. Paul and the City of St. Louis Park, MN. As a Graduate Student as the Urban and Regional Studies Institute at University of MN at Mankato, he helped invent what we now know as online community with his Electronic Charrette process. He volunteered on multiple community design charrettes with Minnesota Design Team. He holds an M.A. from the Urban and Regional Studies Institute and accomplished several urban planning projects as an employee and PhD student at Virginia Tech.

Currently, Willi draws deeply on the emerging values in the permaculture and transition towne movements. He is now creating sound myths based on his eight-year exploration of myth, alchemy, compost soils and sound archetypes for Planetshifter.com and his experimental sound project, the Chaos Era. His first album and eBook are available at iTunes.
