International Teams

Linguistic Team International

The Linguistic Team’s primary goal is to make the movement’s vast resources, media and documentation readily available to all the world’s people in all known languages. To accomplish this incredibly huge task, we need a diverse group of individuals from every language to help collaboratively transcribe, proofread and translate this material into those languages. The global Linguistic Team has a valuable collection of tools at its disposal and an effective work flow to provide accuracy, consistency and comprehensibility in everything we present as a unified, global movement. Every book, video, radio show, interview and website falls into the LingTeam’s domain for review, making it a critical component within the movement.?This Team is open for anyone who wishes to help with English transcriptions, English proofreading, video subtitle timestamp refinement, translations (all languages), translation proofreading, multimedia development (DVD makers, video splicing, cover art, etc.) and more.

Developers Team

The Developers Team’s primary short & medium range goals focus on facilitating and innovating a broad scope of intelligent applications and automation tools to further enhance the functionality of the Movement’s websites and related communication technology and projects. This often includes database development, general programming and custom applications for various purposes, but with a strong focus on inter-connectivity. For many projects, the approach will center around a highly modular, adjustable focus, allowing our results to be reused for a variety of team & chapter needs. Long-range goals include the development of the entire community network into the first “intelligent social-cybernated system” prototype, where all community sites and resources are fully interconnected and as automated as we can make them, given current technology, as well as the development of a full internal & external FOSS community, where everything we develop & create is then shared freely with the rest of the world.?This Team is open for anyone who wishes to contribute. This include people who are knowledgeable in all web & program developing languages, interface experts, conceptualizers, beta testers, functionality documenters, etc.

Newsletter/Press Release Team

The Newsletter/Press Release Tseam works to create periodic publications for public/member review. As of now, the Team produces a Bi-Monthly Newsletter. Press Releases naturally relate to The Movement in general, along with commentary on current global events. ?This NL/PR Team is coordinated by a small set of core full time reviewers, which included Neil Kiernman, Brandy Hume and others. This core, appointment only group, works to review submitted materials. However, in effect, the real “Team” is the open, ongoing member content submissions of articles for review and possible publication. If you would like to contribute a Newsletter article or you have an idea/article for a press release about specific current events, please submit to the email below.

Team coordinator: Brandy Hume
Working location: TBA very soon

Technology Team

The Zeitgeist Movement’s Technology Team is an information and action oriented hub which aims to inform as many people as possible about the current advancements and capabilities of science and technology. Technology is rapidly developing — faster than many of us realize — and with this in mind, we aim to provide a clear picture of just how quickly this is happening through daily reporting of developments and breakthroughs around the world via our website, zeitnews.org and via local and global technical projects (listed on the ZeitNews website). ?It is not just sufficient to talk about advancement, but it is also imperative that we come together and apply this to the world we live in, as a way to help mankind evolve to the next socio-economic level. We hope to actively engage as many people as possible in recognizing that our current technological development is far more advanced than the majority of humans currently realize. By raising awareness of emerging technologies that can free humans from unnecessary work, while practically and efficiently providing for all with minimal, if any, human effort, we hope to build a global understanding of how this technology can improve everyday life for human beings — making the human species much more likely to achieve its productive and innovative potential.
