The entire world is about to learn about
us.
Let the world discover you as well.
Most
American artists are fully aware the future of our nation is in peril. Many are ready and waiting for a safe and sane political
alternative to a compromised, out-of-touch political strata. Interestingly, and without any form of mainstream advertising,
the creative crowd is pouring in like refugees from some unpublicized war.
Why
is it important that we imagine a better future? The media is the
modern architect of social thought. We
cannot disconnect ourselves from this fact. Perhaps you
will be involved in the media. As you manipulate patterns, colors, sounds, and language to
influence the subconscious minds of your audience, why
not be a conscience person who is
interested in utilizing the arts as a tool for enrichment? We
invite you to influence people to think, rather than simply buy.
Don't let yourself get sucked into the post 1970s status quo by diving headlong into a liaison with corporate greed and standing for
nothing at all.
This is why we invite artists to develop
their voice of
social responsibility. After all,
it is you who will influence
the attitudes of future generations. But who is going to tell a wider
audience about the important work of Common Sense and The American Activism Council? --Not the media, not the
news media, not our politicians, and not even the celebrities. In fact, neither
political party nor the commercial media will provide adequate exposure to any
competing political voice; and thus, Americans are left without solutions. So,
once again it's up to the artists.
CommonSenseNow.org
will begin its global presence as an expression ofSocietal Art. We
estimate over 100 million people, spanning a period of two decades, will
screen Voice of The Revolution from their home computers
The growing popularity of the CSN.org
domain presents a staging area for musicians,
writers, filmmakers, poets, and artists of all kinds. Many of our
creative projects have the potential to lead to other exciting
opportunities within an organization whose sights are set on national and then
global recognition. A perfect place for creative individuals to build a resume, portfolio
or production reel.
Finally! Serious opportunities for creative revolutionaries.
Come and find the global exposure you crave. Submit your individualistic, contradictory, and
controversial music, poetry, and video. As our popularity grows
your work will be seen, listened to, and collected
worldwide.

Unearthing the Future ...
Ready
to See the World End?
Science says our grandkids will. (Here's a preview.)
We are discovering the MILLENNIUM World.
Science fact has given us an in-depth preview of the inevitable arrival of a real environmental
tragedy. Our research is also revealing the secrets of how to prevent it. But will the world listen?
MILLENNIUM opens on a world not unlike our own, because it is ours. Take
a moment and visualize a world with spectacular technology and breathtaking medical treatments. Imagine
humanity seeing an end to mechanized warfare. Envision mankind reaching outward into the solar system, and
even the emergence of artificial intelligence.
Well folks, our research also indicates an environmental tragedy will
far overshadow the good that man does.
As the
producers of The MILLENNIUM Project, we have been
given a unique set of facts about the future of technology and human society, as
well as the perils that lie in store
for the biosphere. It's truly a unique vantage point when you see the end of
the world approaching. This is not a fanciful, theologically-charged doomsday
story; but rather it portrays a--now scientifically predicted--planet-wide environmental
and sociological decline.
It all began quite innocently, and with a simple objective: What do you get when you undertake a research project to
develop a scientifically
accurate view of our global near future?
Well,
we got the answer: If it's the modern age, and you've been using the ocean as a toilet for
300 industrial years, evidently you get a ruined world.
The
goal was to build an assessment as to the combined impact of many factors: new medical treatments, therapeutic cloning, biological
and genetic engineering,
the accumulated effects of toxic pollutants, unrestrained communications, space technology, geopolitical developments,
political corruption, advertising-driven sociological evolution, population
pressure, public apathy, changing weather patterns, and atmospheric warming. What we ended up with is an accurate look at
the profoundly real possibility of environmental catastrophe and what this
actually means to the lives of our descendents.
The
future? It's not going to be "Star Trek". In the present paradigm of human behavior,
in about a century, a "Blade Runner"-type situation will begin unfolding
across the planet and in all cultures. As our descendents enter the
24th century (the "Star Trek" period), they will be unnerved by the world that we have created for them. The daily lives of perhaps
60 billion human beings will be defined by survival and endurance in a
world more resembling "Soylent Green".
For those who take survival of the biosphere seriously, we give you the
vital and fascinating discoveries of the groundbreaking MILLENNIUM project, a multimedia adventure being crafted by writers,
artists, scientists, and filmmakers.
This ongoing work of futuristic fiction promises to be the most important creative invention of the modern age, because
it is the modern age.
Where is the MILLENNIUM world? Look around you, it's right there.

The MILLENNIUM Project.
MILLENNIUM
~ A powerful
blending of media formats to be introduced to Hollywood as a major film and
TV series. All the elements of irresistible cinema will be there.
MILLENNIUM will be filled with tension, intrigue, passion, romance, and
mystery; including wicked twisty endings and an unforgettable cast.
The epic will grow to include several films, a TV series,
original music and art, as well as a set of thrilling novels. It is a
living a tribute to the greatest minds of our age.
"MILLENNIUM It's a very beautiful
and sad project, because so much of the work is created in response
to the real facts of our global near future; but it is a story that needs
to be told, and we're glad to be part of it." D.
Hudson | Producer.

File ...
The One
True
Conspiracy. The rest don't even compare.
As a result of a relentless lobbying campaign,
98% of all American radio, print, cable, satellite, and broadcast media is now
owned by eleven trans-national multi-billion dollar media conglomerates. Small
communities of individuals, whose names you never hear, now hold the
intellectual vitality of our children in their hands. The ramifications of this
fact are earth shattering.
If that wasn't bad enough, this same small unseen
culture of corporate media executives also decide which new artists
will be seen on MTV, VH1, and heard on the radio. Out of the 40 thousand new
musical releases each year, these few corporate suits decide the mere hundred which
will be the hits. We are raising the next American generation in the new
corporate-driven era of 'marketing over substance'.
To assist artists of all ages, through their creative expression,
in contributing to the ever-regenerating source of conscience
inspiration in
the global community;
To learn, embody, and teach an artful way of life that equitably shares Earth with humans, other species, and generations yet to
come; To make people aware of the richness of different forms
of art and the power of music, and design to change society and
the world.

Illusion Democracy Explained.
A democracy only thrives as you use
it to create a better informed, more educated and
forward thinking society. Without
the quest to build a more perfect union ... you might as
well have a dictatorship. Illusion democracy
takes root when Americans cast their votes based
upon which party's lies they dislike the least. Today,
we have entered illusion democracy.
And as for the fate of future generations? A couple decades from today, America will
have reached a critical mass. Let's hope future
Americans appreciate unstoppable urban sprawl, a predator media, endless unemployment,
ever-present poverty, a political society accessible only to
the highest bidder, and the
highest cultural tensions on Earth. You and I will
live just long enough to watch them witness the natural world diminishing due to
the greenhouse effect. Sadly, all these
circumstances are just on the horizon.

Glimpse The Future.
The glorious burst of natures love,
merely a memory.
When we dream the future
--and do it through the eyes of real science --we find a sobering
vision. We awaken to discover the path to environmental sustainability.
Yet it involves a global Paradigm Shift, from the current
paradigm of consumption and exploitation, to a new paradigm of
conservation and compassion.
The science is indeed in.
There is not another hundred years of abuse left in the biosphere. From this it becomes a
relatively simple equation. Will the coming centuries bring a new
renaissance or a new dark age? And suddenly we discover, we
have perhaps a single generation --not to decide --but to make it happen.
