This research project will synthesize and distribute the informative power of the ARIES Simulation
Models to improve the relationship and performance between researchers and the general public.
A particular focus of this research project will examine the potential for Simulation Models to act
as a stimulus for Public Action and Policy­driven projects which relate to the implementation and
fulfillment of ecological restoration and other conservation activities which are included in the
optimal solutions presented by the ecosystems service recommendation engine.

Over the following three months I will prepare a presentation about the problems we encountered
while doing this and how I tackled those problems’. I will create a series of informative and
accesible training and orientation artefacts which introduce the ARIES Simulation Model
framework and a full­suite of Geo­Spatial Modeling and GIS tools and inter­database knowledge
management methods and protocols, which are included in the EcoBlockchain Linux OS which
will be created as part of the 2nd phase research program in Summer 2017.

Phase 2 of the EcoBlockchain research program will include the distrbution of Raspberry Pi and
Arduino Yun Physical Computers and a variety of sensors and actuators, lights and sonification
interfaces and other peripherals which deliver the complete range of capabilities outlined in the
Eco­Feedback Hardware and Plantoid Public Art Guidelines.

 Vinay Gupta gets us thinking about
cross platform coordination

Social technology is about connnecting people.

Most social platforms work for social life-cycles.

Some work for businesses.

Maps and Twitter work for crisis management by accident.

How do we map our social natural capital by design?

Why havent we created social networks for economics, local value

exchange, community credit markets,

Local Food Systems

Ecosystems Services?
These are Wicked Problems, with unsure risks, and

We will soon drive out the User­as­Customer Business Model from our Social Media platforms, as a healthy
human body drives any virus out of it's system. The application of Big Data tools, A.I and Machine Learning
to the massive volume of personal data we generate daily is being used in ways which directly threathen our
governments, our well being and our moral and ethical orientation to truth and justice.

We need a sensory intervention.
 Big Data has been around since double­entry bookkeeping
became part of standard business practice.
Data has always catalyzed and supported understanding.
The mechanisms and methods we used in the very beginning of
Big Data analysis included regression tables and slide rules, and
required the highly skilled hands and mind of someone with
extraordinary knowledge, training and skill.
These were rare skills, and therefore, the benefits which came
from this work were highly guarded, as these methods are able
to discern trends and predict market activity as well as provide
insight into the core of human decision making and consensus.

The training which guided this early form of Big Data analysis
embedded this catalyzing and support for understanding.
 Big Data Intelligence….minus the Intelligence.

In current Big Data analysis frameworks, we have been able to reassign
much of the more tedios apects of the analytic process, to computer
systems, which perform the very same mathematical analysis, without
the need for food, sleep, money, or the occasional indication of thanks for
a job well done. So long as we give these computational systems power,
and maybe the occasional software update, they will perform these
mathematical tasks at a radically advanced rate, 24/7.
As the volume of data has exponentially grown, and the number of
incoming data sources grows, we enter a shift­change where we move
from a trickle of data, to a never­ending sea which is closer to the cosmic
sea of expanding space, then even the most remote ocean expanse.

So how do we navigate through this sea of data while keeping our
navigation system in tune with our morals, ethics, and the overiding
charter which gives our entire journey purpose and context. 

Let’s examine some obvious course of action which are opposite to the
optimal state, in order to drill down to the optimal state by way of
reduction.

Bypassing Understanding

With every automation process we adopt within large machine learning
frameworks, we run the risk of bypassing understanding entirely, as we
