Zeitgeist - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Zeitgeist" refers to the ethos of an identified group of people, that expresses a particular world view which is prevalent at a particular period of socio-cultural progression.
Zeitgeist is the experience of a dominant cultural climate that defines, particularly in Hegelian thinking, an era in the dialectical progression of a people or the world at large. Hegel's main contribution to the formulation of the concept of Volksgeist is the attribution of a historical character to the concept. The spirit of a nation is one of the manifestations of "World Spirit" (Weltgeist). That Spirit is essentially alive and active throughout mankind's history. Now, the spirit of a nation is an intermediate stage of world history as the history of the World Spirit. The World Spirit gives impetus to the realization of the historical spirits of various nations (Volksgeister').
The spirits of individual nations are both the articulations (Gliederungen) of an organization and its realization. The spirits of individual nations represent a segment of the World Spirit out of which emerges the unlimited universal spirit. A comparison is introduced here between the status of an individual and that of a nation's spirit. In the process of his formation the individual undergoes various changes without, however, losing his identity. As a part of world history, a nation—exhibiting a certain trend expressed in its Volksgeist— plays its part in the total process of world history. But once it contributes its share to world history it can no longer play a role in the process of world history. The submersion in the total process prevents a people's cultural rebirth, because it has exhausted its creativity in the historical growth of its guiding spirit.

Venus Project directed me to him Jacque Fresco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The picture of the circular city at the bottom of the page looks a lot like Walt Disney's original plan for E.P.C.O.T.

Sounds like more fanaticism *yawns*

Its a movie. Its also what one would call "new wave" thinking about he elimination of money as currency. Its all boring bullshit thought up by people with to much time on their hands and real bad disconnect with reality.

i dont think your understanding the value of what im tlkin about here. if u ever have time, go to google and type in zeitgeist and click the first sight.. watch both videos and explain to me what is wrong with the world that we as a society cant change to create a perfect society.. im sure that most of us have to get up tomorrow and go to work... well what if that wasnt the case, what if u could do what ever u wanted and still life extremely comfortable ? now tlk to me about this.. i know that getting laid off certainly increased my opinion on zeitgeist

Which will never happen, currency needs to exist.

from that page

In the mid-1970s, he started The Venus Project and the non-profit organization Future by Design together with Roxanne Meadows, that reflects the culmination of Fresco’s life work. To this day he writes and lectures extensively on subjects ranging from the holistic design of sustainable cities, energy efficiency, natural resource management and advanced automation, focusing on the benefits it will bring to society.[/quote]
yeah walt disneys city of the future is just about on the same wavelength
