The Venus Project in Japan

Even though the Japan lecture had fewer attendees than the others, the people we met made up for it. There were also significant connections developed. They will be initiating a serious program to introduce The Venus Project to the Japanese people. We will discuss this in more detail as it progresses.

We want to thank Winston McClain, Christopher Madden and Marina Saga for all they did regarding the Japan lecture.

Japan is an interesting place. We even took time to do a little sightseeing. At the science museum someone gave a demonstration of biometrics and showed how it affects invention (a branch of biology that studies biological phenomena and makes discoveries by means of statistical analysis). They took out Velcro and I mentioned how Jacque first came up with this before World War II and tried to introduce it to the Navy. He had noticed that there were far too many buttons on sailor’s pants and laces on their shoes to allow them to get to the upper deck in an emergency.

Jacque was in design and development when drafted, and he suggested he could design shoes and pants that could immediately be fastened by pressing them together.

He got this idea by observing how burrs with many pongs all around them stuck to clothing and felt he could use this process as a fastening device for clothing and shoes.

We were surprised when the person demonstrating that the trigger mechanism for the design of Velcro was from nature took out these same burrs and placed them on a piece of Velcro, saying it was designed in the 1950’s.

Jacque did not follow through with this invention because when he introduced the concept of fastening shoes and pants very quickly to his superiors, they said you forget one thing. Eager to know what this may be, Jacque listened intensely as they proclaimed “tradition.” I wonder how many people tradition has killed.

    Glad to see this video up! It has taken hundreds of clicks in the first week, and the first one of the lectures has over 150 clicks after only one week, too. I expect that people will be watching them all, and talking about them for years! I encourage all people at all lectures to do the same, especially if you have verbal translations.
    Blessings on your journey, Jacque and Roxanne.
    Your supporting promoter,
    Chris P.

    WE ARE THE CHANGE WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR.

    I’ll see you both in Europe soon-

    ONE LOVE

    I believe this could have happened. But as I always say. A creative mind has the gift of CREATION.It will create new things all the time. A person who needs to sill someones projects or ideas has a lack of creativity. They can sill but will never be the same!
    A genius is BIG, because it can see and listen to God’s voice. Therefore whey dont belong amonst us. They belong in Higher places. Where the stars reign forever and ever!
    Because time is just a mere perception of time and space!

    There is unfortunatelly not much time to plan for all countries. So Slovenia was planned to fit people from all those countries that you have mentioned.
