7. Will the Rapture come?

<p>In 2007 the video game Bioshock released. In the game, Andrew Ryan, a megalomaniac built his own city underwater with the idea of 'no gods or kings, only man'. In this episode, Sam and Harry talk about what would happen if a billionaire built their own city. Decentralized power and water? A city governed by smart contracts and code? Listen to this episode to hear wild ideas on what a city built from scratch could look like.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>- <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasteading">Seasteading</a></p> <p>- <a href="https://apnews.com/article/legislature-legislation-local-governments-nevada-economy-2fa79128a7bf41073c1e9102e8a0e5f0">Nevada bill would allow tech companies to create governments</a></p> <p>- <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_democracy">Direct democracy&nbsp;</a></p> <p>- <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_contract">Smart contracts</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>"Steamtech Mayhem"</p> <p>Music by Eric Matyas</p> <p>www.soundimage.org&nbsp;</p>
