OBBM NetworkAlison McDowell, Education and the Biosecurity State - Social Impact PodcastBiotech is engineered life. By definition, it is the exploitation of biological processes for industrial and other purposes, especially the genetic manipulation of microorganisms.

The biosecurity state seeks to remove the rights of all natural life. Alison McDowell is an independent researcher in Philadelphia, PA who began her journey in as a public school parent opposing the high-stakes testing industry and the privatization movement until she realized the endgame was shifting towards constant data collection o...

2021-05-211h 28Our Foundations Podcast128. Alison McDowell- Impact Investing, Blockchain, and more, part 1As we shift into new models of profit and control, technology is being used to facilitate these changes. Blockchain technology in particular allows for the digitalization and tokenization of all things and pairs perfectly with a merger of the physical and technological. One example taking place now is impact investing and social impact bonds. These in a sense allow for the commodification of individuals and creates a market for building up a "human portfolio" that can be invested in, gamified, and potentially shorted. We talk about these things and much more.

The powers of global financial capital seek to create a mechanized planetary computer using blockchain technologies, digital identities, sensor networks, AI, AR, geofencing, human capital bonds, and so forth to classify, tag, track, tokenize, gamify, and commodify all natural non-synthetic life.
