This page exists to:

Present completed work and connect volunteers to projects
Nurture new projects and bring them to life

Projects

Graph, Wall, Tome

Fundamental physics seems unreachable for many. This project and its subprojects aim to map and convey the information necessary to understand the most vibrant realm of human knowledge. (On Discord)

Slipping the DISC

In almost any field of human activity, mechanisms emerge to suppress or downregulate low-quality ideas in order to maintain an institution's functions. These mechanisms become pathological when they are repurposed to suppress truth, research, and innovation that may upset or drastically alter the institution's structure, ultimately in betrayal of its purpose.

Meta Projects

Tracking the Portal's many ideas can be difficult. These projects organize and reconvey those ideas, or develop technology to convey them.

Meta

Starting a Project

First you have an idea, then it becomes a project. Make something of substance or show how previous work will help you make meaningful contributions.

Archived/Completed Projects

Projects that have been completed or remained long inactive are listed here. Projects that began in name only and showed no public development are removed from the wiki.

-The '''[https://projects.theportal.wiki projects.theportal.wiki]''' webpage is auto-generated from the following pages.
-The project pages are set up very purposefully to be machine-readable in order to generate the [https://projects.theportal.wiki/ Projects website], so they need to follow a specific format. Here is an example empty project. Any time we create a new project, we can follow this template. At some point we'll need to better explain why everything is set up the way it is. -->
