WHO
I'm Simone.
Humanity has had what it takes to do much better for decades. The knowledge, the tools, the people.
Yet the systems that actually matter stay broken while everyone optimizes their own corner.
Let's fix them together.
WHAT I'M BUILDING
Six projects. Same root problem, different angles.
I'm looking for people who want to shape these from the ground up.
01 EthosMesh
Decentralized territorial planning
EthosMesh
Decentralized territorial planning
The Problem
Everyone crams into big cities because "that's where everything is." But the model is broken: rent eating half your salary, hospitals overloaded, 2-3 hours lost in transport daily. Meanwhile territories empty out: schools close, hospitals close, communities die.
The Approach
EthosMesh lets communities map their own resources, assess real potential, and plan development together. The solution isn't telling people not to go to cities. It's making alternative territories ATTRACTIVE.
Hard Questions
- ? How do you measure a territory's "potential" without it becoming a gentrification tool?
- ? What data matters? Who owns it? How do you get it?
- ? How do you prevent capture by narrow local interests?
02 EthosTask
Milestones for humanity
EthosTask
Milestones for humanity
The Problem
Crucial challenges stay unsolved because efforts are fragmented, uncoordinated, invisible. Every company reinvents the wheel, patents it, then dies and takes the patent to the grave. As humanity, we don't advance TOGETHER.
The Approach
EthosTask defines concrete milestones and connects them with organizations willing to work on them. Not PR exercises. Visible contributions. Measurable progress. Public accountability.
Hard Questions
- ? Who decides what counts as a "milestone for humanity"? With what legitimacy?
- ? How do you prevent it from becoming another greenwashing exercise?
- ? How do you incentivize collaboration over competition for visibility?
03 EthosLens
Follow the money
EthosLens
Follow the money
The Problem
Prices rise, rarely fall. The supply chain has a thousand steps, each takes "a little." Milk costs 2€ per liter and the farmer gets 10 cents. Where did the other 1.90€ go? A system designed to hide responsibility.
The Approach
EthosLens traces a product's full pricing lifecycle, from origin to shelf. It works through collective intelligence: everyone contributes their piece. The truth emerges from below.
Hard Questions
- ? How do you get data companies don't want public?
- ? How do you make it usable for average consumers without overwhelming them?
- ? How do you handle "everyone takes a little" when no single actor is the villain?
04 IdeologyBase
Mapping belief systems
IdeologyBase
Mapping belief systems
The Problem
Polarization and ideological bubbles prevent us from solving problems together. Tribalism turns you into "one of them" before you open your mouth. Politicians say X, do Y, outrage for a week, everyone forgets, repeat forever.
The Approach
IdeologyBase maps the full spectrum of human ideologies: political, philosophical, spiritual. Not simplistic labels. The actual multidimensional landscape of how humans believe.
Hard Questions
- ? How do you map something this complex without reducing it to caricature?
- ? How do you prevent it from becoming another polarization tool?
- ? How do you make accountability stick when people are used to forgetting?
05 EthosArk
Preserving what makes us human
EthosArk
Preserving what makes us human
The Problem
When AI can do everything, we'll stop learning things. And when we stop learning, we lose more than knowledge. We lose the cognitive benefits of the PROCESS. The AI gives us the product but takes away the process. And the process was what made us.
The Approach
EthosArk preserves cognitive domains at risk of extinction through economic obsolescence. An ark for capabilities that will disappear when they're no longer "productive."
Hard Questions
- ? Which cognitive domains are most at risk of being forgotten?
- ? How do you preserve processes, not just knowledge?
- ? How do you motivate people to learn things that aren't "useful"?
06 EthosCalendar
Rethinking time
EthosCalendar
Rethinking time
The Problem
The calendar we use was designed for purposes that no longer serve us. Every community has traditions from ancestors, holidays from religion. But what do WE add? What does our generation contribute? Nothing. We're custodians of other people's culture.
The Approach
EthosCalendar imagines a calendar reflecting personal and collective aspirations, rhythms and celebrations that actually mean something to the communities creating them. Invent our own rituals. Become masters of our culture, not just inheritors.
Hard Questions
- ? How do you create something new while staying compatible with existing systems?
- ? How do you make new rituals feel meaningful rather than artificial?
- ? How do you get people to invest in something they didn't inherit?
THE VISION
Every broken system follows the same pattern: local optimization killing the whole.
Sales hits targets while the company dies. Cities grow while regions collapse. Everyone wins their game while we all lose together.
I want to build counter-infrastructure. Tools that align incentives instead of fragmenting them. Frameworks that make coordination possible. Systems designed to not leave people behind.
This isn't charity. It's engineering applied to the right problems.
WHAT I NEED
I can build all of this technically. But building alone defeats the purpose. I want people to help themselves through each other, not depend on me.
I need people who:
- → See problems and want to solve them, not just discuss them
- → Have skills, any skills: technical, design, research, organizing, writing, thinking
- → Want to own something, not just contribute to someone else's project
I don't have all the answers. I have questions and the ability to build. If you have answers, or better questions, come talk.
