The Ring of Faiā & My Next Decade of Digital Wayfinding

Navigating Systems, Culture & The Pacific Rim

If you're reading this right now, it's not by chance. You're interested in my deeper work and how to get involved, collaborate, or simply learn more.

I build ventures and frameworks that operate across the Pacific Rim’s cultural-technological systems. This page outlines my 10‑year roadmap: translating between innovation networks and civilizational infrastructure to improve resilience and consciousness at multiple scales.

The Split: A Systems View

We are entering a bifurcation in global socio-technical regimes. One regime (often "the West"/ "Global North") optimizes for speed, experimentation, and individual agency; the other (often "the East"/ "Global South") optimizes for continuity, relational coherence, and long-term stewardship. These are distinct operating logics observable in innovation patterns, governance styles, and institutional memory.

  • Characteristics: continuity, relational capital, earth-aligned infrastructure, spiritual memory.

  • Strengths: cohesion, resilience, duty-of-care over time.

  • Risks: inertia, slower adaptation, undercapitalization.

I treat these as psychotechnic signatures—patterns at the intersection of cognition, culture, and tool-use—not as myth for myth’s sake but as a vocabulary to align strategy with human systems.

Tectonic Identity

My practice is bidirectional—bridging Americas ↔ Asia along the Pacific Rim. From the Americas: mythic imagination, ritual, heart, and creative risk. From Asia: discipline, precision, longevity thinking, governance, and infrastructure. The value to partners is the fusion—turning cultural variance into operational advantage.

"Man of Mū"

I operate as a translator between spiritual memory (Mū) and material innovation (Atlantis). This isn't something everyone may understand, but for those who do, you are exactly the type of person (or company) I'd like to work with.

The task is not choosing sides but harmonizing logics: enabling the fire of innovation to land in structures that don’t burn out the commons.

Resilient Systems, Conscious Stacks, Civilization Health

Deliverables:

  • Resilient Systems: architectures that absorb volatility without losing coherence.

  • Conscious Stacks: layered design linking culture, governance, and technology.

  • Civilizational Health: indicators and interventions for long-term societal viability.

Field Research

Myths, Tech & The Ring of Fire (Pacific Rim)

I will be undertaking a decade‑long documentation program across the Ring of Fire—capturing under‑represented perspectives on Mū lineages, indigenous technologies, and civilizational memory. Outputs will include research trips, short documentaries, and an indexed knowledge base that connects cultural mythos to practical system design. This program complements advisory and Conscious Stack Design™ work by grounding strategy in observed, field‑tested patterns.

The Digital Wayfinder

Wayfinding is the practice of reading invisible gradients. My vision for future Digital Wayfinding involves reading signal flows, institutional dynamics, and cultural patterns to navigate complexity. My work—through Conscious Stack Design™, Faiā, and national-scale systems—applies ethnographic insight, systems thinking, and technical design to guide organizations across thresholds. Treating all inputs as data sources, regardless of source.
