CV:
Flu pandemics:
* A lifetime in Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain), now I live in Scotland.
* Edited wikipedia entry on H5N1, told promedmail.org, that got picked up by [http://www.openthefuture.com/wcarchive/2005/06/getting_smart_about_disasters.html Jamais Cascio], someone told me about FluWiki, went there as "lugon", learned a lot.
* Professional: MD (medical doctor), PhD, epidemiology in public health, flu surveillance (sentinel network, software), severe pandemic planning.
* Authored http://www.ResilienceMaps.org/files/fluscim. This is probably why you're here.
* Data science (300+ hours, not a unicorn, can work with others): http://github.com/LucasGSC
* [[PandemicFluGame]]: an idea that never really took off.
* Work in other areas: tools for cooperative and creative thinking (including mindmaps) where I translated 2000 pages into Spanish & taught 1000 teachers. Translations (including subtitles of videos, done cooperatively). Permaculture (including emergency permaculture). Music (guitar, composition, arrangement), see http://www.soundcloud.com/lucas-gs3 & Blog in English: http://imaginethecanaries.blogspot.com


== Español ==
Ebola:
* [[Ebola]], now [[PandemicOSAT]]: high-level concepts on how to look at Open Source Appropriate Technology (OSAT) for a pandemic.
* [[Excubator]]: a different type of hazmat suit.


* Lucas Gonzalez SC (puntos, no espacios, en gmail punto com)
Food:
* Tenerife, Canarias, España + Dumfreis, Escocia, Reino Unido
* [https://github.com/LucasGSC/SpringBoard/tree/master/Capstone Analysis of food habits in the UK]
* Twitter: @imacan pero mejor @lucasgonzalez
* [http://permacultureglobal.org/users/9537-lucas-gonzalez-santa-cruz Online Permaculture Design Course]
* Bitácora: http://imagina-canarias.blogspot.com

* [[Global_Food_Swadeshi_Project]]
* Invented [[One_Sheet_Solar_Cooker]]


= ... and some stuff I've done =
= [[Hexayurt|Hexayurt]] =


== Canaripedia & Localpedia ==
Some scale models:
 
* [[Localpedia]] (English): based on [[Canaripedia]] (Spanish), in turn based on [[TheFWD_lucasgonzalez_No_island_is_an_island|No Island is an Island, written for The Future We Deserve]] (English). Helps collect questions and answers about basic resources in a given territory, to facilitate the generation of visions and projects which are based on data.
 
* [[Canaripedia]]: basada en [[TheFWD_lucasgonzalez_No_island_is_an_island|Ninguna Isla es una Isla, escrita para El Futuro que Nos Merecemos]]. Intenta reunir preguntas y respuestas sobre recursos básicos en cada territorio concreto, para facilitar que generemos visiones y proyectos basados en datos. En inglés, en abstracto, como [[Localpedia]].
 
== Resilience, pandemics, Ebola ==
 
* [[PandemicFluGame]] is a new project. Let's see what it would look like!
* http://www.ResilienceMaps.org (link to plescamac.com was broken so now the files are hosted in resiliencemaps itself - good license!)
* [[Ebola]] is a broad view on how to use appropriate tech for Ebola, and [[Excubator]] is a specific concept to explore a different type of hazmat suit.
 
== Permaculture, Food etc ==
 
* Took Geoff Lawton's first [http://permacultureglobal.org/users/9537-lucas-gonzalez-santa-cruz online Permaculture Design Course]. Can't tell a potato from an onion without help, but we can think stuff, and I'm looking into [[Emergency_permaculture]] which attempts to look at how to use permaculture in emergencies, either humanitarian or planetary.
* [[Global_Food_Swadeshi_Project]] looks at factors for food swadeshi.  We'd then have to look at alternatives. Is part of both pandemic and permaculture [[Image:GlobalFoodSwadeshiProject.png|thumb]]
* Inventions: [[One_Sheet_Solar_Cooker]] / [[Cocina_Solar_Simple]] [[Image:Cocinasolarsimple.png|thumb]] & also see Ebola above.
 
== Pieces I wrote for The Future We Deserve ==
 
For [[The_future_we_deserve|The FWD]] I wrote 3 pieces:
 
* [[TheFWD_lucasgonzalez_My_ideal_panflu|My ideal panflu]] Pandemics happen and some are bad, so what do we do. Published work in in http://www.ResilienceMaps.org
* [[TheFWD_lucasgonzalez_No_island_is_an_island|No island is an island]] Relative physical isolation gives some clues to standing on our feet while being part of the world. Core idea for [[Canaripedia]] and [[Localpedia]].
* [[TheFWD_lucasgonzalez_The_onion_and_the_satellite|The onion and the satellite]] Health-care systems. Can be redesigned from first principles.
 
== Hexayurt ==

For [[Hexayurt|Hexayurt]] I've helped with some how-tos:
Helped with some how-tos:
* [[Camp_Danger_Hexayurt_Hinge_Technique|Camp Danger Hexayurt Hinge Technique]]: high quality videos for a smart refinement.  Probably useful for many other light-panel hexayurt designs.
* [[Camp_Danger_Hexayurt_Hinge_Technique|Camp Danger Hexayurt Hinge Technique]]
* [[Hexayurt_Plywood|Plywood]]: there's plywood everywhere.  Harder to build than light-panel hexayurts, but maybe the panels are more widely available.  A how-to is a must for this kind of hexayurt, so please help make a better documentation.
* [[Hexayurt_Plywood|Plywood]]
* [[Hexayurt_H13|H 13]]: The standard "classic" hexayurt uses 12 panels.  One extra panel and you get 66% extra standing room. Can use "foldable" ideas if built with light panels.
* [[Hexayurt_H13|H 13]]
* [[Pup_Hexayurt]] I contributed the image for the panel pictured on the side. [[Image:Pup1sheet.jpg|thumb]]
* [[Pup_Hexayurt]] (the image)


Also for [[Hexayurt|Hexayurt]], I translated [[Pais_Hexayurt]], which is about Haiti but may also be applicable to other settings.
Translated [[Pais_Hexayurt]] (Haiti etc).


== Translations ==
= [[The_future_we_deserve|The FWD]] =


* Both text and videos. Videos, with procedure to help subtitle and create translations into many different languages.
* [[TheFWD_lucasgonzalez_My_ideal_panflu|My ideal panflu]]. Sounding the bell on flu pandemics in 500 words.
** An example I'm proud of (but beware: income is logarithmic): https://www.amara.org/en/videos/BxDoaAHJnwTI/info/hans-roslings-200-countries-200-years-4-minutes-the-joy-of-stats-bbc-four/
* [[TheFWD_lucasgonzalez_No_island_is_an_island|No island is an island]] Helps collect questions and answers about basic resources in a given territory, to facilitate the generation of visions and projects which are based on data. Core idea for [[Canaripedia]] and [[Localpedia]].
* Includes: Edward de Bono (2000 pages), Walk for Water, Edgeryders, Hans Rosling, Open Source Ecology, etc.
* [[TheFWD_lucasgonzalez_The_onion_and_the_satellite|The onion and the satellite]] Health-care systems. Can be redesigned from first principles.

== Software (outside epidemiological work) ==
 
* Slides.bas was a piece of software I wrote to explain medicine, last-year examples to a first-year student. First written in applesoft, I ported it into ms-basic.
* I wrote a musical keyboard program in assembler for the 6502. Yes, that's the apple II.
