project's intention:
cross-university collaboration, nonprofit
Imagine attending the world's most advanced
virtual campus, where you study the big picture of how energy flows through Earth; where you can zoom to cellular and subatomic details and where a classroom course turns into a stunning visual journey.
And what if you could toggle between complexity levels: from the basic elementary information to the knowledge frontier in science?
could this help us increase our
collective planetary consciousness?
