Assembling Reality while Breathing

Visions — ideas for a more convenient, fun, or otherwise improved world

Visions are ideas I have chosen to actively build; the four active vision cards are listed below.

What makes these visions?

Thoughts arrive freely. A vision is a thought with enough spark that I have chosen to work on it for real and move it onto the Vision Ladder. Execution tests it and returns feedback that reshapes both the vision and the person behind it. These projects are currently unrated: their old percentages came from an earlier version of the ladder, while the current one includes intermediate steps they did not pass through. I have not yet decided whether an honest reassessment means starting the new ladder from the beginning or taking another approach.

The best thing you could have access to, for this exact week of your life — science-curated for every age from birth to old age, because most people never discover their calling simply from never being exposed to the right things at the right time.

How support, weekly attention, and refunds work
weekly support vote

Choose what I work on next

Support a vision by sending any amount with its ticker in the transfer subject. Add an optional two-letter ISO country code to lean the work toward that market—for example, SVPS-LT for Lithuania or SVPS-US for the United States. A ticker without a suffix remains market-neutral. The suffix is a directional preference, not a binding instruction: I may adapt or decline a market focus for legal, ethical, safety, or practical reasons while continuing to move the underlying project forward. Every Monday at 00:00 UTC, the money received becomes each project's share of attention for the new weekly sprint.

Every euro up to the full-sprint threshold increases the guaranteed minimum human time proportionally. That is only the floor: I may still be crazy enough to do far more, add people, or find another way to accelerate the work. The point is to respond in a way that I hope makes the supporter happy—to hear the vote, climb the Vision Ladder, and show honestly what their support helped move.

Proportional sprint promise

funds guaranteed human hours

The threshold spreads my current annual base-compensation benchmark over 48 active sprints, preserving four no-sprint weeks each year. Human hours may be mine or those of people I engage; I remain responsible for the work. Tools and automation do not count as human hours. The guaranteed floor is capped at 40 hours; actual work is not. Funding above the threshold may add people, outsourcing, or productivity tools. Support never buys equity, ownership, or a particular outcome.

guarantee Weekly support · Future pre-payments

One sprint to judge the work

A supporter may request a full refund during the week after the funded sprint if they do not agree with what I did. The request must reach me through one of the contact methods below, with enough transfer detail to identify it, before 00:00 UTC on the second Monday after that sprint began. I will honor an eligible refund wherever doing so is lawful and operationally possible; I will not route around legal or financial restrictions. I may decline future transfers from that participant. Public totals show incoming support only; refund activity remains private.

I tend to remember the people who supported me when support mattered most. If a project grows and it becomes possible to return that kindness—with early access, extra consideration, time, or another meaningful gesture—I will genuinely want to do so. That is personal gratitude, not a purchased entitlement or a guaranteed reward.

This is separate from a product pre-payment. If a vision later reaches the Funding stage and accepts pre-orders, that money will be held in escrow until the promised MVP ships and refunded if it never ships. This remains the source of truth for the guarantee used across my visions and the Vision Ladder.

Thoughts — ideas not yet chosen as visions

These ideas have not carried enough energy to reach the Vision Ladder. That may mean the idea is not strong enough, its time has not come, or the thought experiment itself is the whole point. Whatever the reason, I have not chosen to turn it into serious work—so I call it a thought, not a vision.
