SELF_ID

Jacque Fresko was born on March, 13th, 1916 in New York. All his life Jacque Fresko tried to prove to the world that the economy based on credits and mortgages can't be sustainable. He dreamt to create the economic system based on resources, but nobody wished to listen to it. And then Fresko has meditated on creating a state which should be constructed with application of modern technological decisions.

As a result «The Venus Project» was formed. Jacque Fresko is a engineer, industrial designer, as well as the futurologist, not only by trade, but also on calling. These skills and qualities have allowed him to come up with such a grandiose project. In October, 2008 after the premiere of Peter Joseph's film "Zeitgeist. Addendum" the public has ceased to perceive Jacque Fresko as the somewhat eccentric professor. Now his technocratic project of the future "The Venus Project" seems to be almost the only alternative to existing order of things. After the first film "Zeitgeist" has predicted economic crisis two years prior to its occurrence, Fresko's ideas took notice an ear.
