In 2009, Rubicon Seven Foundation, Inc. formed out of the stark realization that our global effort to reach sustainable life solutions is largely impossible if we do not completely and holistically engage all people in this transformation. Our motivation extends beyond the core principle of creating social justice and fairness. Rather, it is born from seeing that those closest to the earth – often our poorest community members – are the keys to unlocking regenerative solutions to heal our planet. Through actions of care and exploration into who we are, we can build processes of meaningful collaboration to create healthy life. From Rubicon Seven Foundation's viewpoint, regenerating the health of our ecological and human diversity is an essential path to not only our salvation, but our ability to thrive.
Rubicon Seven Foundation seeks to move beyond notions of "empowerment" to processes of "co-powerment," where we communally spark regenerative practices to create socio-ecological vibrancy. We create processes of co-learning where we purposely construct diverse collaborations, realizing a range of perspectives typically generates much more effective and holistic solutions. Rubicon Seven Foundation is deeply committed to taking a whole-systems approach, where we fuse the tools of sociology, ecology, permaculture, and sustainable environment-making to support an ethic of care. By working across a diverse range of areas, we create synergistic effectiveness.
An (unnamed) Guy is a Dublin guitarist/singer-songwriter who makes a living by fixing vacuum cleaners in his Dad's Hoover repair shop by day, and singing and playing for money on the Dublin streets by night. An (unnamed) Girl is a Czech who plays piano when she gets a chance, and does odd jobs by day and takes care of her mom and her daughter by night. Guy meets Girl, and they get to know each other as the Girl helps the Guy to put together a demo disc that he can take to London in hope of landing a music contract. During the same several day period, the Guy and the Girl work through their past loves, and reveal their budding love for one another, through their songs.
