Complete redesign and rebuild of NDI website as a transformative landing page and portal. Launch target: December 20, 2025. Platform will serve as the digital presence to attract funders, participants, and collaborators, functioning as a 'work of art' that bridges indigenous wisdom with scientific insights. Built on Webflow + Airtable + Whalesync stack with future expansion capability for courses, events, interactive features, and AI integrations.
Brand refresh for New Dawn Institute incorporating vector equilibrium geometry, indigenous art motifs (Wixárika, Toltec), and visual language that bridges ancient wisdom with scientific credibility. Avoiding generic retreat aesthetics or overly New Age vibes—aiming for substantive, credible, immersive visual identity that resonates with funders, participants, and elders.
Develop online course infrastructure for New Dawn Institute to deliver elder teachings (particularly from Mindahi and other Wixárika/Toltec elders) digitally. Platform will generate funding for elder communities while creating pathways to in-person retreats. Technical approach includes Webflow + Airtable + N8N automations for interactive learning experiences, AI-driven personalization, smart matching systems, and integration possibilities with HALOS framework and Consciousness & Healing Hub. May include linking to existing course platforms rather than rebuilding from scratch.
Research and document integration possibilities between New Dawn Institute platform and the HALOS framework ('universal operating system for humanity'). HALOS aims to create interoperability across projects/organizations, AI-driven personalization with Grace Intelligence, reciprocal learning systems, and post-money economy infrastructure. Key concepts include vector equilibrium as structural principle, 12-around-1 architecture, and 'Internet of Beings' vision. Explore shared backend infrastructure with Consciousness & Healing Hub and other aligned organizations.
