Some subjects are still too raw for Alexandra to speak of, and so I return to the archives, again and again. Research in systems archives provided me with access to the data of Noodin Kasabien, including his heartfelt message to his daughter after the Foundation announced our presence to the surface world.
As I sift through the early archives of our history, I’m struck again and again by the range of emotional issues our forebears carried. And I applaud each individual who sought out therapy, all of whom contributed to what ultimately led to Directed Social Evolution, commonly called the DSE.
A strong and stable society, made up of those who are well-adjusted and happy, is less apt to be swept by the tidal forces of propaganda and lies. We saw how those easily influenced were trained to first believe unthinkingly in one person and conditioned to follow unquestionably, even as the one idolized descended into noticeable dementia.
egardless of culture, humans must eat to live. Sharing food and its preparation has helped form connections between disparate people, fostering camaraderie and enabling a genuine sense of community and continuity across generations.
I have never been comfortable with the idea of Project Pharos as an individual, but the project’s boundaries aligned with my ethics, so I chose to accept responsibility for my actions, which might explain why my remarks to those I spoke with perhaps lacked the cutting edge apparently many had hoped for.
From a historical perspective, the previous spiral of human civilization resembles a surface storm known as a tornado. As humankind progressed further on the spiral, destructive events occurred with increasing frequency, until the end was finally reached.
The Estimate Video was watched widely after it was released as part of the documentary, “In The Room Where It Happened,” and is an integral part of our history within its chronology.
Louis Albitbol discusses the release of “In the Room Where It Happened: The Estimate” as well as the effect it had on the residents of the habitats toward Alexandra Hanlon.
Between 2017 and 2024, pre-catastrophe, the habitats doubled their population. Following Alexandra’s estimation timeline, the Foundation Board decided to ramp up recruitment to save as many as possible within the parameters of their available resources. This meant abandoning the slow and steady process in place since the habitats were first populated and utilizing more dynamic methods.
Alexandra speaks of how the Foundation and Habitats worked to expand recruitment while keeping the promises of the Charter for new and existing residents.
