Space Colonization Theory

The framework for understanding permanent human settlement beyond Earth—the rationales, methods, ethics, and implications of establishing self-sustaining communities in space. Space Colonization Theory addresses why we would colonize (survival backup, resources, expansion), how colonies should be structured (governance, economics, social organization), and ethical questions (rights, terraforming, impact on potential extraterrestrial life). It draws on colonial history (with all its warnings), systems theory, and speculative design. Unlike exploration (visiting), colonization is about staying—making homes elsewhere, becoming a multiplanetary species. The theory grapples with what that means for human identity, politics, and destiny.

Space Colonization Theory "Mars colonies shouldn't repeat Earth's colonial mistakes. That's Space Colonization Theory—not just how to get there, but how to live there justly. Governance, resource distribution, cultural preservation—these matter as much as life support. Colonization without ethics is just conquest with a new name."

Sensory-Somatic Colonization

Sensory-Somatic Colonization is the conditioning of human bodies and nervous systems to disconnect from natural sensory intelligence, embodied awareness, adn relational perception.

It is a form of colozination not of land - but of perception and bodily autonomy.

Where traditional conlization occupies land, sensory colonization occupies the body's sensing system.

How it Happens.
1. Sensory Hierarchies: Certain senses are privileged while others are suppresed.
2. Nervous System Conditioning: Chronic Stress environments reduce sensory awareness.
3. Institutional Body Control: Institutions teach people to override their bodies.
4. Disconnection from Ecological Sensing: Humans evolved to perceive environmental cues.

Sensory-Somatic Colonization asks for rewilding of the nervous system and spirit through joy, rest and play! To address, challenge and detach from the conditions and context of the bodymind being an energetic space to be owned and controlled by capitalistic structures or conventional relationship designs as informed by heterosexual monogomy.

coulsonization

/kəʊlsənʌɪˈzeɪʃ(ə)n/ – the process of someone or something being irreversibly coulsonized.

Once you realize you can't type any word starting on "coul" any more without automatically adding "-son"... coulsonization is complete.

COLINisation

refers to the New Zealand based media darling Colin Mathura-Jeffree, who has the uncanny ability to be fabulous at everything and be everywhere at all times. His image is instantly recognisable and in New Zealand a new COLINisation has been welcomed with open arms.

every man in New Zealand now takes a little more time getting dressed, trying to do a Mathura-Jeffree thanks to the COLINisation of our print and electronic media. The world better watch out...he's coming!!

Colinization

Acting, talking, or eating like a person named Colin.

You've got a Mountain Dew in one hand and a bike in the other - you have been through Colinization.

canonization by lead

(verb) - Act by which an armed felon is relieved of both his life and rap sheet by the bullets of an officer's gun. Subsequently, he is canonized as a Saint by the community.

Rules for nomenclature are as follows: "Saint (Name of felon), patron Saint of (accused crime)."

You hear about Michael Brown?

You mean Saint Michael, patron Saint of Strong-arming blunts? He got a canonization by lead.
