The Imagination Age Network is located on 1000 square inches in the Plymouth Colony of Loveland in Detroit. The mixed-media, mixed-reality experiment in shared ownership of micro real-estate is defining what it means to be part of a modern community. Jason Silva wrote this provocative piece for Vanity Fair which explores the theme of his inch of the Imagination Age Network in Loveland: Turning Into Gods.
He was the newest member of the Imagination Age network until last night, when Josh Fox joined us after the premiere of his magnificently moving new play, Reconstruction. Josh Fox wrote and directed Surrender, which blew me away. He is also the filmmaker behind the HBO doc Gasland, premiering on June 21.
"Reconstruction" asks the question, "If you could build any kind of house, any kind of town, any kind of country, what would you build?"
That is the same question asked by the Loveland project, where the Imagination Age Network is building a neighborhood in Detroit, and in the infinite cosmos, or at least as big as our collective imaginations can make it.
With Josh Fox, we will be exploring the theater of the future.
