"The Willi Paul Show" is moving quickly . This is projected to be a streaming GLOBAL AGIT-POP circus of late nite fun. I am hitting up Steve Kilbey for some dev cash to get this going. Get your PJ's on, peeps. I asked Sashi Meanger at Whitireia if his grads can help with video and post-production for this ~ 3 minute concept (pilot video) for this sustainability arts and music cable show. Who is the Host? What's your story? Song? Protest? Prayer?

My McFarland Books Proposal in conjunction with our echoplanet.net build-out is in Mr. Needle hands for vision-smithing at Longbow.net. Ready yet, FLA?

The courageousconversation.com "Conversations Meetup Project" is in contract negotiations. Also, looking forward to CEO Glenn Singleton's replies to my interview questions.

Nomads is changing up room rates again. Ethical? At least the front door opens most of the time!

Super cool visits to the All Blacks office. Who is my guy, Joe? Thanks also to the InterContinental Wellington Café for coffee smiles and extra cookies on the run. Yum.

"Email of the week!"

Willi: 'Greetings Simon - I enjoyed your exhibition last evening in the school foyer. My take-away is that little to no mention of regenerative design was present in the mix of visions. Also, as I often lament, technology will not save us. I would love to discuss my ideas on regenerative design for media (and other sectors) to your edu-community. Please see WilliPaul.Studio. I also have 2 or more consulting projects to highlight from my current work in Silicon Valley.' Cordially, Willi

Simon: 'Hi Willi, Thanks for your email – our Comms & Marketing people have forwarded it to me. Interesting your comment on regenerative design. It is most closely aligned with the School's Critical Resilience research stream at victoria.ac.nz/design/research/critical-resilience. I have cc'd Catherine Caldwell and Tonya Sweet who both supervise in that stream. Tonya also teaches our undergraduate courses and you will be able to follow up direct with them. Many thanks for your interest.'

Welly's Old Quarter is cool but needs some City outreach to increase traffic. Seems the gentrification isn't benefitting everybody over there. Think?

1080 graffiti is everywhere - on the sacred and the mundane. We must win this fight for our children and planet!

I continue to enjoy my walks thru the grave yards of Wellington: hear whispering soles - get dirty mittens!

Thanks for the freedom to grow - and a dawning love for a new city and country. So much for a working vacation.

Spiritual DNA - more on this later. Beers first?

We are in dusk
Either sinking in hell-
or flying into heaven-
It's our choice

I am the crack.
