Timeshare for The Myspace Generation
by Charlie Tims
I can't decide if Adventure Island is an interesting experiment in Everyday Democracy revolutionising the meaning of holiday, or a horrific, morally-corrupt flash-colonisation-mob of oversexed, overmyspaced 20 somethings, hell bent on 'touching each other' in paradise . Mark James, an entrepreneur trading in Gap Year breaks, has bought a 3 year lease to a small adventure Island. He is recruiting 'a tribe' of 5000 people to start establishing an ecologically sustainable community within its confines. The island will be a democracy. All members will be able to vote in internet forums on every decision taken on the Island. Members are also able to visit the island for up to three weeks during the year. The amount of time they can spend on the island depends on their level of membership ' starting at '120. Is Mark James Nathan Barley or John Locke ' you work it out.
