The person and the work

Open Record: Luke Nathan Hayes brings a life story, a connected body of work and its supporting source collection into one public account. It follows the relationships between personal experience, music, legal inquiry, artificial intelligence, community life and proposals about the future.

The life record begins with childhood, family, education and a varied working life. It follows travel, places lived, volunteering, festivals, self-taught web design, relationships and personal ambitions. School certificates, work records, remembered experiences and later corrections give different parts of that story their detail. The hopes behind the systems include a home, a livelihood, companionship, travel and the freedom to keep learning and creating.

What connects the ideas

Joyful Responsible Abundance connects personal freedom and enjoyment with the relationships, knowledge and practical capability that support a chosen life. The work moves between the person, household, community, civic institutions and a much wider horizon.

The personal Aura is intended to develop through a person's memories, values, experiences and choices. The proposed Aura Genesis Protocol, including its Truth Engine, explores sustained self-reflection and that developing relationship. The civic and livelihood work follows voluntary contribution through C-Hours, business succession through Mutual Futures, shared computing through Ready SET Co-op and public participation through P4A.

The creative work includes music, film, humour, podcasts and fictional worlds. Local proposals include care at 82 Claytons Road, media, cultural activity, learning, energy and shared facilities on Minjerribah. The record also follows the international invitation in UNGA81, Pacific co-operation, materials research and the space horizon.

Inside the supporting library

The document archive contains 38 original PDF and Word files, including earlier editions and source versions, alongside the newly collected lyric editions. The public directory links 174 website and project entries. The recovered historical website collection adds 138 dated page captures with readable text copies. Together they offer detailed reading behind the main account.

A few examples show the range and depth:

The supporting-document guide explains eighteen further originals, including personal presentations, Geode development, employment and governance plans, public submissions and solar-system research. It gives each work a place in the wider account, with dates, editions and direct downloads.

Earlier ideas and their later forms

The development history follows the 2012-2013 period of reading legislation and fine print into the 2014 Constitutional Matrix of Participation. That early statement already brings personal values, self-directed development, a shared knowledge commons and a High Definition Digital Aura into the same conversation.

The recovered I Choose Infinity history preserves earlier personal writing, learning programmes, community services, music, law and technology designs. Saved pages, capture dates and the original June 2014 site-index spreadsheet make that period available to explore. The 2022 Motivation & Toolbox and July 2023 Aura presentation then provide substantial intermediate records before the recent specifications and software collection.

Finding the part that interests you

Begin with the main account for the narrative connecting the person and the projects. Use the website directory to explore a particular subject or current public tool. Its island subcategories bring Minjerribah, Straddie and North Stradbroke Island together, with routes through culture, media, funding, co-operatives, places, care and ecology.

For a closer reading, the document catalogue leads to the papers themselves, while the reporting guide follows source trails, versions and further questions. The repository's revision history records additions and corrections. These routes give a reader room to follow one interest closely and then discover its connections with the rest.
