In 2010 Mike founded Collapse Network, intended to concentrate essential news stories and facilitate relocalization. “Relocalization”, says Ruppert, “is the only hope we have to build lifeboats that can save as many lives as possible as human industrial civilization comes to an end and as a new and uncertain era with unforeseen challenges leaves us asking not what kind of a world we can save, but what will be left to pass on to future generations.” In the spring of 2012 – after multiple “points of no return” were crossed, including climatological, environmental, social, economic, and military Mike “fired” himself from the Collapsenet, giving the company to the staff who had worked to build it. Hr realized that in the official and accepted world none of these problems would ever be solved using the tools, approaches and concepts that the world accepts. In August of 2012 Mike relocated from lush Sonoma County California to the remote San Luis Valley at 8,000 feet in the Colorado Rockies to pursue spiritual awareness and solutions while keeping a close eye on the increasingly irrational behavior of homo sapiens, the climate, the unweaving of industrial civilization, the extinction of 200 species a day as theme music for the birth of a new age of human existence. As a singer/songwriter Mike has co-written and sung many songs with the band New White Trash. With band mates Doug Lewis and Kristen Vigard (the original Broadway Annie) New White Trash is currently finishing its second album “Inner Reach” scheduled for release in the summer of 2013. His specially selected music was an essential feature of every show.
