So we have modified the project title yet again to “[here][now]“. Where each word is a variable that should be replaced by the appropriate values for the person saying it.
In sharing this with some friends, people have mentioned an allusion to Be Here Now by Ram Das, which is a sort of New Age book about spirituality and meditation from the 70’s. We are ok with this. An important point of the book is an emphasis on living in the present moment. These ideas are not unrelated to those we are attempting to address with this project. In fact, even the word “avatar” is an English interpretation of a Sanskrit word meaning literally “descent”, but usually implying “a deliberate descent from higher spiritual realms to lower realms of existence for special purposes” [wikipedia].
