Get the update about the free Clarity 2.2 software release here.....

I share this here also because it relates to the latest update with cf-Hotel Infinity.

Yes, I am going to be giving it (Clarity 2.2) away. Why? Well that I will share with you in my Source Artist blog shortly. I was working on the revision until around 2am this morning because it is clear to me the program, and its supporting services can be a great service to others. What are the supportive services? The personal coaching via podcasts, teleconferences, and hotline services (phone and online) and special retreats we are developing in Jamaica. We will work out a way for anyone who need these services to access them, so stay tuned. I will not post the access numbers in public, so those who are interested will need to contact us to get subscription info which includes those access numbers and details about the events in Jamaica. The announcements will be somewhat like this but the details will be shared at the cf-Hotel Infinity website(s). The regular Web 2.0 website is nearly ready to open, but the 3D site is still being designed but will be for Cultural Fusion members only....of course membership is free and open to everyone :-) Just let me know of your interest and you welcome to join us!

You can contact me through this site or any of my others if you do not have my personal email address and I will reply ASAP. For now, however, we have provided these services to only a personal network of friends but now it is being offered to you.

At our Cultural Fusion network on Ning a great question was asked and it resulted in a bit of clarification aobut Hotel Infinity for those that are interested:

Dear Yvette, could you please tell me more about Hotel Infinity. I have a friend in Oslo, who is also a cultural fusionist - we is working on a project " Art Hotel" . We are thinking of doing a 360hub event there...in December when I am back from Asia. We could use a "extended" technology and to bring our experience online.

He is in food business - Art Delicious - a cafe concept!

Look forward to get you views on 360hub.ning.com - I think your visioned something? Let us explore further!

I sense that fusion is more dynamic than evolution or even revolution , where we are citizens that react to something force upon us like changes in dynamics set in movement by someone. Fusion is impulses that we create and detailing that we react on to see manifest and change into something else.....

All the best - in trust and with the touch of infinity,
Inger-Mette

More than just a website

The site will launch with the Hotel Infinity Gift Shop first. We are partnering with those in need and those working with them to support their empowerment. Starting with a vision of a better life we want to help to create it.

As one our CF art projects, Hotel Infinity is not just a website, it is my invitation to you to reconsider refugee camps and similar approaches typically applied when helping those in need. So i'm starting by applying the concept of luxury merchandizing to gifts that really matter.

Also, that FSFL (representing and embracing HIV/AIDS orphans and deprived children) as the first guests/residents of Hotel Infinity is intended to represent an alternative approach...questioning the context those in need are usually welcomed into. These projects will take initial steps towards automating global social responsibility.. We start by questioning our assumptions around rescue assistance...and inviting people to question our current approach to helping in times of need.

Why is the luxury treatment extended to dictators and not to those who have been recently traumatized?

Instead of spaces that invite a feeling of safety and healing, a system that is often dehumanizing (even if well intentioned) is what is typically offered. For example, it is not uncommon for the tent of women who have been raped to have a sign posted outside to make it easier for the press to find them for interviews.

In the book "The Tipping Point" there is mention of a study demonstrating that prison as a context influenced people's behavior in negative ways. I wonder if a different context for emergency shelter would create less post victimization of refugees or those seeking help?

Hotel Infinity on Comfusion

Phase 1 of the site is in development and will officially launch on the International Day of Peace (Sept. 21) 2007

What follows embodies much of the concept behind the Cultural Fusion website. It will house shops featuring art and virtual gifts (sponsor the care of HIV/AIDS orphan, art or school materials, garden tool kit for a family, clean water for a villiage, build a room in an orphange for HIV/AIDS children, etc) to benefit community renewa...a knowledge library as part of the WebAntiPhon:Clear_CRM_Strategy offered to a range of business services located in the hotel, professional and social clubs, the virtural location for Cultural Fusion offline Events, as well as the home for the broadcast network that will provide media outlets for Cultural Fusion connected events and communities. The virutal environment is the field lab for the art district community renewal project model.

The CF-GoGameRoom internet Art:Work Collaboration with Ronald_Wopereis to function as the Hotel_Infinity:Lobby entertainment for Hotel_Infinity in Comfusion as a place where the world can work or visit. The Ring_Galaxy is the model for this relationship that creates the Art:Work. Cultural Fusion is the Event that results in this Ring_Galaxy called Comfusion. CF_Website:Visitors can observe a CF-GoGameRoom but must become a Member to play.

Applying something along the lines Eve Online in terms of a virtual community constructed offering 3D gaming technology version and a 2D version for this phase 1 implementation. Think mixed use development, inclusive and welcoming but with community standards in place...imagine the Galleria and updated for a new age using the idea of Hotel_Infinity.

Cross Over

From wikipedia:

In mathematics, the German mathematician David Hilbert (1862 – 1943) presented the following paradox about infinity:

In a hotel with a finite number of rooms, once it is full, no more guests can be accommodated. Now imagine a hotel with an infinite number of rooms. You might assume that the same problem will arise when all the rooms are taken. However, there is a way to solve this: if you move the guest occupying room 1 to room 2, the guest occupying room 2 to room 3, etc., you can fit the newcomer into room 1. Note that such a movement of guests would constitute a supertask.

The story illustrating how this works can be found here:

What is Cultural Fusion's Hotel Infinity?

Cultural Fusion's Hotel Infinity Is_The_Context_For a SoulFood:Recipe or Project, just as a SoulFood:Meal Is_The_Context_For a specific SoulFood:Dish in the SoulFood tradition.

The [Art.Artist], Customer and Sponsors in the SoulFood tradition come to Hotel Infinity to sample/experience the SoulFood:Meal or offers.

Hotel Infinity is the hospitality we offer in this destination ...a place for people to visit or set up shop. It is the embodiment of the Experience Economy (precursor to the Age of Attention) in a web based virtual reality.

Hotel Infinity and it's offspring are the context for what Ronald_Wopereis and the other sponsors, guests, members offer.

Hotel Infinity Is_The_Context_For this SoulFood:Meal and at the same time it is a marketing and [WebAntiPhon:Clear_CRM_Strategy for the CF_Website:Members. Think mixed use development, inclusive and welcoming but with community standards in place...imagine the Galleria updated for a new age.

The Hotel Infinity is like a General Store for the settlers of this space called Comfusion
