Project proposal: The Library of Prometheus
#1
Greetings fellow earthlings,

in my mind an idea has rattled for the longest time - can you kick start (verb) knowledge in our digital age we find ourselves in? Can the relevant information be condensed and available in a package which if consumed would impart the individual with the knowledge to tackle the life with a solid understanding of the natural world and armed with the critical thinking to successfully navigate the human one? Libraries have in past existed as repositories of knowledge to be protected ( clerical libraries of private collections) or available en-masse ( public libraries and universities) behind a small donation.

As the scope of materials available to us nowadays boggle the mind I propose a small project to catalyze the neurons and provide a strong foundation for a knowledgeable citizen and only at the cost of the movable  electrons.

What would this package entail?

For the first run  I would propose a collection on 10 books on the select categories:

Physics

Chemistry

Math

Philosophy

Law

History

Economics

Computer Science

Psychology

Sociology

Each section would comprise of digital written materials like textbooks, books or other relevant materials in the style of it ( knowledge foundation, exploration of new ideas, critics ).
The final package offered a torrent download, of course.

Would anyone be willing to participate ( research, section moderation, torrent packaging )?

I welcome your ideas, proposals, critics or in the worst case...emojis.

Regards,
a fellow human.

I'll give this a few more days before I look for kindred spirits elsewhere.
