Future by Design shares the life and far-reaching vision of Jacque Fresco, considered by many to be a modern day Da Vinci.

Peer to Einstein and Buckminster Fuller, Jacque is a self-taught futurist who describes himself most often as a generalist or multi-disciplinarian - a student of many inter-related fields.

He is a prolific inventor, having spent his entire life (he is now 90 years old) conceiving of and devising inventions on various scales which entail the use of innovative technology.

As a futurist, Jacque is not only a conceptualist and a theoretician, but he is also an engineer and a designer.

  1. Excellent stuff.
    And for all those saying/thinking The Venus Project and are part of the New World Order or part of the UN, you're wrong.
    Fresco was about using science, technology and engineering to create better societies for all within a sustainable framework of available resources.
    Nothing to do with controlling people at all. In fact he was about freedom for all people.
    He wanted to create societies that don't use or 'need' politicians. He was very critical of them and governments that were more concerned about power and their own outdated ideologies and ways of running societies for their side of politics rather than improving societies for all people. Including the health and sustainability of the resources and environment that give us life and the good things we like.
    Seriously, do real research and don't jump to conclusions or listen to people that say things that are not true and seem to have no idea about what they're talking about and seem to have prejudices re-enforced by conspiracy theories.
    Do your own research at and their And remember, they are not the only people that think we should be using technology etc for better societies. People like Arthur C. Clarke, R. Buckminster Fuller etc also see the common sense in doing it too.

  3. This video is sponsored by the UN (NWO). He is on the Venus Project which the UN is behind. The future the NWO (New World Order) is to move us off the land into big metropolis where we will be easy to manage in a surveillance state--such as using 5G, mandatory Vax, Smart meters, eating GMOs (where they control the food supply of the dangerous food), cashless society (can control you if the control your $). Look up Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030. No thanks.

  4. Jacque is 101 years old now and still nothing seems to have changed except for the emergence of the great Elon Musk.I do hope he make Mars , a none monetary planet and a brave new world where we can all be equal in every possible way. !!

  5. Can we start a new society like this now, rather than just talking about this? Nothing is going to change unless we start something new NOW

  9. OK, bunch of misguided opinions on here. I'm here to sort a couple of them out.

    1. Computers can LEARN, they are capable of "programming" themselves. This is well known. This makes them unpredictable!
    2. Condoms don't work - I hate using them, and so does every other man. Population control will be by either food, bombs or snip-snip.
    3. We're already very communist in our capitalist societies - We don't own our houses, we own 100 year leases, for example. The rich are capitalists, the peasants are capital.

    That's all I've got time for.

  10. damn, he is inspirational ! But how do we really create a society without a monetary system? Don't get me wrong, I'm all for it.. I'm just not very optimistic for it's chances of becoming a reality.

  11. I wish we lived in that world. We are only limited by our imagination.

  13. Jacque seems to think we are in the transitional period between our neolithic bartering exchange system of our past ancestors, and our resource economy in the future. As if there is some "phase" we past by on our way to the future. What I find interesting though, is that those two systems (past/future by design) do not include an indirect value system like we have today, they are simply based distributing physical resources, only this time around (within about 1200 years), we now have the proper knowledge to apply it to global resource management on a live-stream, instant feedback integral system. It would be like instituting a technically driven army of robotics programmed to give people equal advantages.

    It might sounds lame for all of us to have an equal chance, but I believe that will cause the bar of human potential to raise higher, and the competition will become larger in size but narrower in succession/excellence.

  17. This is by far the BEST doc. I have seen about Jacque Fresco and VP
    WHY?
    Because vs some over bearing narrator who likes to hear himself speak...
    It just let's Jacque talk, explain his vision, his designs, concepts, etc
    I am in awe of how in depth and dedicated this man truly is
    An absolute must see Doc !!

    Your words and vision will live on long after you
    Thank you

  19. unfortunately if computers were in charge, they would quickly realize that man is what is wrong with the planet as a system and most likely abolish the population. Not a bad thing, just the truth.

  20. This guy is stuck in the 70's and the reason the sci fi theme hasn't taken off is because it is ugly to the eye and nobody wants to live in it. Moreover, their is no prestige about it and people like to have things to aspire to. Thus, beauty holds higher esteem than function and thrift.

  21. Jacque Fresco is without a doubt the most intelligent 94 year old on this planet.

  22. Its always so much easier to dismiss and rant than to take action and change our world for the better. And people are wondering why we dont go anywhere.
