James Hogan, our new volunteer coordinator, reports:
Mainly we’ve been working on the conference, so not much else has happened in the past week. Here are some details:
Documentarist Zeina Aboul Hosn is interested in seasteading, and chronicling our social movement. On her YouTube channel you can watch a short film she made about Christiania, a semi-autonomous community in Copenhagen, which in some ways can be considered a successful micronation.
Volunteer Heidi Lein, who made the Conference flyer, has also created a print advertisement for us (PDF). Good for cubicle decoration at work!

Some of my favorite pictures from Inside the £800m Dubai hotel boasting a £13,000-a-night suite and dolphins flown in from the South Pacific:
