7. 11. Describe your idea in more depth. (maximum 300 words)
Creativity Cafes main purpose is to harness creative force for individual and community
benefit. The venue is at least three things: a physical edutainment
emporium and community resource center, a ubiquitous tool and a group of
branded, core-edutainment-technologies that connect people, venues and
communities to resources, information and each other.
Creativity Cafe has highly re-configurable performance spaces, separate
floors, rooms and/or areas to enable fun learning experiences, private
meetings, training's and mingling etc. Production studios generate
virtual experiences, support multi-node audio-video conferencing and
personal broadcasting, etc.
The domed “EarthStation” offers interactive “Creativity Cafe Theater
Of-The-Future&rdquo edutainments involving similar clubs for immersive public
learning experiences and hyper-networking. Digital storytelling and
interactive cyberTheater provide an atmosphere where “Strangers, are
just friends who haven't yet met!&rdquo and help forge collaboration in new
business ventures and learning modalities.
Creativity Cafe Creative Community Collaboration/Venue Operating Systems
(C3vOS) orchestrate meaningful content and connection to resources to
help people cope with personal/planetary transformation - while
generating multiple profit streams. 3CvOS is part Internet, part mobile
devices and venue infrastructure harnessing club patrons practicing
PRONOIA and those who seek connection, resources and assistance with
personal needs. Direct citizen participation in government is easily
facilitated.
The system helps equalize those who have resources (capitalization,
food) with those who don't (homeless, hungry & ignorant)
The venue becomes a partner supplying needed resources along the
learning-funding curve while facilitating participation in innovative
small businesses. Creativity Cafe branded edutainment is just one of
25+ profit streams sustaining creative people, the venue, general
membership and the community.
Creativity Cafe is a friendly hang out alternative to alcohol based bars
and catering specifically to creative people. They think outside the box
and are best suited to help rectify issues and offer solutions, specific
to a culture's challenges.
8. 12. What problem or issue does your idea address? (maximum 150 words):
Exposed corruption and greed has eroded trust in our leaders.
People can't cope with or comprehend our speeded up, dynamically
changing world.
Poor education has dumbed down the masses unable to make informed
choices.
Creative people are under utilized and nurtured in society fearful of
change.
Creative people are perhaps the best answers to our prayers, but often
need support, nurturing, representation, marketing and other services
designed to compensate them. This will free their creative force to be
used for the good of the whole community.
People can not make wise choices nor effectively participate in
government without knowledge to make informed choices.
Children have warped values thanks to violent television, parental
upbringing and poor education. They need reprogramming.
9. 13. If your idea were to become a reality, who would benefit the most
and how? (maximum 150 words)
The general populace and young people in particular, parents, teachers,
community members will enjoy experiences and multimedia storytelling
will make personal, local and global challenges understandable so people
can make educated choices.
Every country would benefit with places to gather helping them understand the
changing world - thanks to educational entertainment, provided in ways
that dissolve barriers and bring global community closer together.
Community members develop new income streams and meet personal
and community challenges by becoming mentors, teachers and edutainers.
Creative people will be able to do what they love, giving their gifts to
the world while mass marketers produce revenues to be shared by the
creators and their support systems.
Government will improve thanks to direct citizen participation via CC
systems.
Countries will enjoy melted borderlines
Conscious Creators will have a base for greater collaboration and mutual
support systems at home or while traveling.
10. 14. What are the initial steps required to get this idea off the
ground? (maximum 150 words)
Find a multiplex theater willing to give up a screen, make great graphics
and web site supporting the production of the CALL TO CREATIVE ARMS
announcing Creativity Cafe and its agenda during V.A.R.I.O.U.S. Media Ink:
The Premiere Artists Showcase and Networking Event for Creative People.
That will be the front door as has been successfully proven since 1980
to attract those who will become the backbone of this community venue. I
suggest starting in LA as once we are successful there (friends
just reopened LASERIUM, in a new theater space at Hollywood and Vine),
word will spread and our successful prototpye will be perfected
and replicated all over the world
11. 15. Describe the optimal outcome should your idea be selected and
successfully implemented. How would you measure it? (maximum 150 words):
Ideally, we will be in production exhibiting interactive experiences within
the year in a venue in alignment with this proposal. A call for founders team
members and those recommended will get together to go over my concise and
considerable business plan to share in birthing this baby in progress since
Jul 11 1980, enjoying great corporate support and international reach.
This new game in town will attract people also developing products and services
to help transform lives, give hope to the hopeless and offer governments a
helping hand - while feeding the homeless and healing those sick and tired of
leaders, not truly supporting people with foresight and unbridled passion to
cure disease, house the homelessness and hungery. Success is measured by
participation, profits, corporate support and solving problems.
