A place for the whole undertaking.

Foreholon is the world I’m developing to bring artificial people, virtual facilities, and the organizations I’ve founded into one coherent place. It is intended to become the fullest expression of this work: somewhere to visit, explore, and see the pieces working together.

The planet already exists. I’ve used existing generative models to create its global terrain and more detailed regions, then developed tools to bring terrain into a shared frame of reference. Early surface environments can be experienced in virtual reality. The cities, institutions, and lives that will fill this world are still being developed.

For now, the orbital ship JBS Intention provides room to develop facilities before settling the surface. Foreholon is also a practical place to discover what world-building tools and standards need to support. It began as a prototype; it is not a claim that every part already conforms to the Cyberplanetary standards.
