world moon is a global cemetary that eventually will provide life on the moon. the beauty about globalization is that we have friends all over the world, with social media and cheap flights we keep
3d print canal house amsterdam, a close contact to our friends. but when a beloved one dies i don't think i'm going to fly to the otherside of the planet to maintain a grave so i think the rituals
for mourning are really gonna change. in ancient times we built a graveyard
next to the metropolis or the necropolis next to the metropolis. and if we look at the globe today we could say that our globe is one big metropolis, and that the moon could be the perfect necropolis. because you can see it from every location on earth. so the deceased are always inside
and forever on our minds. on a moon funeral we don't use a coffin,
instead we use a ceremonial rocket with the ashes of our beloved one inside. so instead of looking at the ground
or the highlight of the funeral we gaze at the lightning rocket trail
heading for the moon until it's out of sight. the ashes will be sprinkled on the moon. and since the human ash is very fertile, the soil on the moon will gradually change
into a nutritious surface -- (laughter)
so this together with the water
already found on the moon, this is a valid base for plant growth. so that's why we put a second function into this ceremonial rocket. it doesn't only bring the ashes to the moon, it also creates a moon-membrane in the lunar orbit which eventually make a moon atmosphere so real life on the moon can occur. so there will be new life on the moon.
and since this new paradise has been grown from the ashes of our forefathers, all our forefathers from planet earth this world moon cannot be colonised by one single nation or group. on world moon there will be no borders, and there will be no distinction between race, color, culture or religion. wouldn't that be wonderful?
so to share these ideas -- we are architects -- so i thought we should make a model of it to have you all to get to notice that we're doing this, and the model is in sale, with a scale 1 to 140,000,000. so you can wear it as a jewel to show that you like these ideas and would like to live on world moon. and just to put it in a perspective,
we are asked by alicia framis from moon life, and she creates products and concepts
for life on the moon or future human life in space, and all the products created for that project are in the moon life concept store which is traveling around the globe. and it will be opened in shangai 11th of december,
and the second one will be in rotterdam so i really hope to see you there.
thank you. (applause)
