Blender

Blender is used for many of the Overshoot TV projects.

This project is about how to best use Blender.

Explaining exponential growth

This project is about explaining the concept of exponential growth to the public.

The first video in this project was created well before Overshoot TV was born: "Are Humans smarter than Yeast?" was produced (in 2007?) by Dan Chay. He has copylefted it. Unfortunately, he no longer has the original material he used to create the video.

A project is underway both to recreate the video in order to better be able to translate it into other languages, and use parts of it within larger video projects.

Overshoot TV (General issues)

Overshoot TV is a wiki-like web site to promote full sustainability through media-rich content.

The goal is to collaboratively create high quality documentaries in many languages. The documentaries will cover the following concepts:

  • Exponential growth
  • Carrying capacity
  • Overshoot and collapse
  • and many other related activists' topics.

You can use the issue tracker to post bugs or requests about the project as a whole.

Overshoot, the documentary

The biggest medium term goal of this web site is to create a high-quality, high-definition documentary called "Overshoot".

Eventually, there will be a full DVD release freely available with bittorrent. The documentary will be released under the Creative Commons license Attribute and Share Alike 3.0.

The documentary itself will be created and improved over time in a wiki-like fashion by activists from around the world.

Profit and Social Justice

Create a video explaining the ideas of Jacques Lemaire on fair profit distribution.
