EVR1 Canon Philosophy

The EVR1 Canon contains the information expressed by our logo:

This logo is the result of a long discussion and research into symbol and myth, to find the one image that would express what EVR1 stands for:

• The colons flanking the center circle represent causality and flow. 
• To the left of the left colon is the PAST. 
• To the right of the right colon is the FUTURE. 
• In the center is a circle - the PRESENT. 

As such, EVR1 connects you to this past, to a purposeful future and deepens the present.  This logo is intended to be a tactile experience, designed to be touched often, to connect you with this moment, to live deeply and mystically within it.  Indeed, the present is the only thing we have.  Both the past and future cannot really be said to exist, except as guides for which to conduct ourselves in the present. We each will take what previous generations have done, build upon it (or not), savor it (or not), die, and leave behind a memory and/or contribution.

The EVR1 Canon is the EVR1 team's understanding of humanity's most precious English-language works.  Our goal is to represent the 200,000 year human story, and dive into all aspects of man - physical, intellectual, economic, psychological, spiritual, ecological and cosmic, and fit it on a Micro SDHC storage device.  Luckily we had two blunt instruments at our disposal: Wikipedia and the CIA World Factbook.  We augmented these with a selection of licensed and public domain canonical texts, sacred texts, practical manuals, cultural texts and a selection of recent studies, ideas and approaches to the unlocking of human potential, spanning the spectrum from science to tarot.

EVR1 Canon Disclaimers

Incompleteness

We used many guideposts, internal (personal beliefs and values) and external (numerous Canon curations, e.g. Bloom's, Britannica's).   You may find this to be English-centric, male-centric, Western Centric, Eastern Centric, Northern Hemispheric, apocalyptic, goofy and/or incomplete.  There were many classics we could not find in the public domain, as well as whole continents like Asia, Africa and South America that are woefully underrepresented.  Further, there is little here that speaks of the culture or spiritual lives of other living organisms, or the depths of the ocean.  Given the size of marine mammalian brains (up to 25 lbs), length of maturity (up to 12 years), size of social network (1000's of creatures around the world), lifespan (up to 300 years), depth of dives (almost 7,000 feet) and ability to communicate (10 miles), it would be hubris to think that humans have the market cornered on consciousness, spirituality or culture.   

Further there is nothing here on interstellar existence and communication (for which there is much anecdotal evidence), or mankind's other non-textual treasures (painting, music, sculpture, carving, dance, architecture, lovemaking, spiritual states, etc.).  Most importantly, current social, political and economic issues (poverty, genocide, racism, homophobia, sexism, ethnocentricism, carbon/extraction/exponential/expansionary economics vs the closed system of Earth, species/language/culture extinction, corporatism, fiscal child abuse, etc.) are not captured here.  Although much has been written recently in English on these EVR1 blind spots, they are not in the public domain, and thus are not yet included.

We opted for breadth over quality and user experience.  What this means is that we'd rather have old, poorly formatted or incomplete information on something we think is important, that we can legally use, than have nothing at all.  Wherever possible we aimed for the most recent texts, [for public domain, many are in the 1900-1923 range] though a few of our texts are really old (Olde English) and may be difficult to read.  As long as there is breath in the lungs of man, the EVR1 Canon will never be complete as we pledge to continually refine, expand and improve this collection.  Further, we want you to do the same, whether in partnership with EVR1, or on your own. For owner's of EVR1 products, a password-protected Wisdom Locker will be launched containing the full texts of the EVR1 Canon, available for download, as well as with other features to be developed later.

Use Your Head

Especially with regard to health, emergency and medical information and advice contained in the EVR1 Canon, use your head.  Check the publishing date, and know that most of what is contained here is over 100 years old.  Much has happened in medicine since then, e.g. CPR, the whole field of psychology and numerous acute, disease and general medicine discoveries.  By reading/buying/using the EVR1 Canon, you assume full responsibility for your actions based upon what you read in the EVR1 Canon.  While having access to the EVR1 Canon is probably better than having no medical resource at all, it does not even constitute a distant second to having a trained medical professional on hand.  To that end, we recommend that in an emergency, you immediately alert emergency response professionals in your area. Secondly we recommend all people become CPR and first aid certified.  Lastly, if you must use the EVR1 Canon in an emergency, first consult the current US Army Survival Guide for medical information (contained here in the EVR1 Canon), as it contains the most current emergency consultation.  EVR1 is not a licensed medical practitioner and does not give medical advice.  The RVR1 Canon, company and Academic Advisers are in no way liable for injury, death, medical malpractice or neglect that result from use of the EVR1 Canon.

Non-proprietary Effort

As this is intended to be humanity's corpus, we cannot own it, thus the Canon table of contents is here for free, for all to use, however they wish.  With the exception of the content we have licensed, you may go to the same public domain online sources (mostly Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg and Internet Archive) and download the texts of the eVr1 Canon texts yourself.  Of course, this collection is itself a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 licensed work, so if you decide to make your own canon based on this, please credit eVr1. We enjoy continuing "The Great Conversation", as articulated by Mortimer Adler and the Britannica Great Books in 1952, and punctuated by institutions like the U.S. Library Congress and the Library of Alexandria.  Please join us in advancing the science of knowledge begun by the Sumerians in 2,600 B.C.

Nothing would serve the human story and the public debate better than a host of canons competing for supremacy, based on completeness, functionality, accessibility, usability, etc.  Provided you follow the terms of use dictated by the major sources of public domain content, as we have, and have a few hundred hours to kill, there is nothing stopping you!  Please take the eVr1 Canon and improve it and make us try even harder to make a better product, to connect humanity with the 200k year human story.  [Be sure to look at the terms of service for Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg and Internet Archive, before you publish anything.] Please tell us what you think of the EVR1 Canon.  Send an email to canon@evr1.co - we want your screed, the wackier the better.  We know this is where the edge of creation and progress lies.

Areas of Improvement

We are interested improving our selection of public domain texts, and copyrighted classics (post-1923), especially Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winners (e.g. Toni Morrison's "Beloved") and recent non-fiction epics like "Guns, Germs and Steel", "Future of the Body" and "Sex, Ecology and Spirituality". Please send us any other ideas for texts that you believe deserve inclusion in this corpus.  If you are a content rights owner and would like to grant EVR1 a free, universal (literally), life-time (of the universe) rights license, we are especially interested in speaking with you.  Conversely, if you are a rights owner of a work we lifted from a public domain site and in error included in the EVR1 Canon, please let us know and we will remove it immediately. Please email us at canon@evr1.co. 

It Will Be Ever More Awesome

As fellow stewards of existence and UX junkies we are eager to create something valuable, beautiful and inspiring.  Thus, the version of these works we install in our products, and will soon make available on-line, will eventually contain improved formatting, presentation, metadata and functionality, as it is the goal of EVR1 to deliver you the best possible product and experience, the best hardware/software/UX, so you may enjoy a seamless learning and discovery experience throughout humanity's greatest works.
