## About

I’ve been working at the intersection of the Digital Web, Performance Art, Mindfulness, and Education in Europe and California for more than 30 years. My primary resonance groups have been youth, people with disabilities, and the elderly, for whom I’ve developed many custom educational programs.

These days, I’m passionate about playful, gameful, narrative, and mythic approaches in Education for Sustainable Development, with a special focus on Regenerative Food Systems and reframing the SDGs as a joyful, daily practice.

My Blissness is rooted in the Common Good Sector—independent from the Market and Political Governance Sectors. Independent in its model, narrative, language, and structure. We cooperate at intersections while remaining grounded in our own sector. This also means a vow to live simply and richly in a non-material sense, both personally and operationally.

The social products I develop and collaborate on are freely gifted to our Common Good Soil as Open Educational Resources and Open-Source.

We collaborate beyond national borders on a planetary level, connected in our common ground and soil: the "Great Quest" of growing into a planetary, eco-social, peaceful, regenerative, way of living with each other—   in our one shared Home (Oikos) on it's cosmic journey.

I am a re-growing Indigena of the re:Generation—"someone who was/is  born from within the land"—a father of two sons and a proud Kidult, as I see gaming and playing as intertwined with effective, agile, organic, lifelong learning.

## Projects

- **Life Counseling within a World of Warcraft**
  Development of an Online Community and Life Counseling Program within the MMORPG Video Game "World of Warcraft"  Lectures at Universities about the social dynamics of Online Games.
- **The Smart Waste Agency Game - The SWAG**
  An edutaining, open-source tabletop and card game and Open Educational Resource (OER). The game kit immerses players in the world of waste types (waste monsters), recycling techniques (smart multi-tools), and "The great Circular"– fostering creativity, cooperation, and climate awareness as Agents of Change.

The game “SWA – Smart Waste Agency” was commissioned and funded in 2024 by Smart Kassel (documenta city of Kassel) as part of the Model Projects Smart Cities initiative of the Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development and Building.

Cooperation partners in 2024 included: “Die Stadtreiniger” (Municipal Waste Services) and the “BNE Model Municipality” of the City of Kassel.

The implementing partners for three SWA game design holiday workshops—with 63 young game designers aged 7 to 15—were Future Space and Bunte Wege / Klang Keller, Kassel.

The creative producer and developer of the overall project is André Boeing, a freelancer from ktopia.eu.

The alpha version of the game was released under a Creative Commons license at the Social Smart Regional Conference of the Model Projects Smart Cities (MPSC).

The Game is now being continued to develop by the Epic Education Community
- an informal Community of diverse Educators.
