“Seasteaders” Take First Step Toward Colonizing The Oceans
Declan MuCullagh wrote a a new article on CBS news regarding the Ephemerisle event, in which I’m quoted.
“The consensus is that next year we’ll do it again in the delta,” says Rasch, who helped to build the floating platform. “Some people, like me, were attracted to the political aspects. Other people were attracted because they like building things on the water, or solving technical challenges. There’s virtue in the camaraderie you get when you build an art project or a platform. The platforms we’re building aren’t appropriate for the open ocean, but the friendships will survive.”
Note that my role in the build was pretty small–I helped with the final build steps on Saturday, but the vast majority of the work was done by Chicken John, James Hogan, and their crew in the weeks leading up to Ephemerisle (and afterward).
