We're living in a time of significant decline, but we can take one decisive action: actively gathering and recording the transformative potential of Human Design. It is a legacy resource for future generations who choose to explore themselves through Human Design. It needs to exist so that future generations may have a unique experience of themselves and being alive.
Ra is gone; no one will be directly initiated into their Human Design experiment by Ra anymore. Many first-generation experimenters have already passed away, including Randy Richmond, Kathy Kinnard, Mal Brittain, Ilana Jagruti, Ed Stanton, Zeno, and Jurgen, to name just a few.
Those of us who were direct students of Ra share our experiences as evidence of the experiment, which has succeeded and continues to provide each of us with a life like no other. We each experience ourselves and life with greater awareness. We can view Human Design as a path for individuals to realize themselves as passenger consciousness, experiencing this human life with empathy, acceptance, and a profound sense of love.
In 1977, NASA sent out two Voyager Mission spacecraft. On board these fragile, miracles of human genius were records made of gold disks that played sounds, images, and data from life on our planet. They passed by Pluto in 1990, and reached interstellar space in 2013, beyond our Solar System. Look it up; this time capsule spacecraft is currently the farthest human-made object from Earth, and it is expected to pass by the star Gliese 445 in approximately 40,000 years.
Carl Sagan said at the time, "The spacecraft will be encountered and the record played only if there are advanced space-faring civilizations in interstellar space, but the launching of this ‘bottle’ into the cosmic ‘ocean’ says something very hopeful about life on this planet."
‘This is a present from a small, distant world, a token of our sounds, our science, our images, our music, our thoughts and our feelings. We are attempting to survive our time so we may live into yours.’ President Jimmy Carter
The homogenized world today is filled with distortion, fear, anxiety, looking for a quick fix – ‘You can know yourself in 30 days’, and all kinds of dogma. We don’t know what it will be like in 50 years, but we have a good sense of what’s ahead on this planet. This is our attempt at preserving the wisdom that can guide others to live authentically as themselves, even when there is nothing left to look back on except the version of life that those in power insist upon as the only way forward.
Film is an object; it possesses permanence. It’s not digital, and cannot be erased. It will remain long after the internet collapses, power grids fail, or media is censored – or whatever catastrophe awaits our collective future. Film carries the message for future generations, it exists to tell our grandchildren’s grandchildren: ‘You are ok, you have a way through this life, you can learn to love yourself, you can realize you are a being living in a body having this human experience. If we could do it, so can you. Life is not futile, it is a gift.’
Anything digital, anything online, including this post, can be learned by AI and then manipulated. But not film. Watching a movie is a human experience.
When our way of life is being systematically destroyed or cannibalized for AI purposes, this film, The 4% Experiment, will remain a valuable resource, a message of hope and possibility for the future and its aftermath. We can pull together to ensure this project happens – not for us, those of us who are living our designs now, whether first-generation or fifth-generation experimenters or beyond. This is our gift to the future: to break through fears and cultivate curiosity about life, and the freedom that arises from the daily practice of living your Human Design.
Significantly, this film is being funded through crowdfunding. There are no studio agendas or financial influences involved. This means it is up to each of us to ensure it gets made. We need to continue sharing our experiences, passing on those that resonate with us, and striving to understand what we do not yet comprehend. It is our responsibility. Each small donation adds to the flow of energy, the light needed to bring this film to life, not just for us, but for our future.
‘But when it all comes together and you make a good movie, it’s good forever.’ Catherine O’Hara performing as Patty, in The Studio, Episode 1, Apple TV
