Generally my efforts are in the following areas:

• Natural Learning that turns the whole society into a comprehensive learning environment so it will be much easier for people to learn by themselves in a dynamically way in society. For more details:

• Open Project, Organization Management: How independent artists/professionals can work together in various forms of organizations and be really in charge of their work/activities/arts. For more details: http://freestone.wordpress.com/2007/03/28/web20-is-grassroots/

• Cross Culture Communication: Bridge the gap between different cultures, between the developed countries and developing countries, between the west and the east
• Teach Zen Meditation and Zen Practice

In term of software, my current efforts involve designing space-building software, which will be a center piece of the Natural Learning platform and Open Project. Another project, which is in a larger scale and more research-like, is Web Brain (http://freestone.wordpress.com/2007/01/03/web-brain/). I have no time to work on Web Brain now. But I am ready to take on the challenge once I can take free control of my time.

My software skills are mostly focused on software architecture, web based programming/web platform, python and java. 

At the event, I will probably talk about the ideas behind Natural Learning and Open Project.
