AQÜL.Co
AQÜL [uh-kool] holds deep meaning in several ancient languages that are still spoken today including Arabic, Farsi, Hebrew, and Urdu. As a noun, it describes a conscious mind imbued with wisdom; as a verb, it is: “I declare”.
We define it as the individual declaration and affirmation of our culture. A collective commitment to cultivating our communities, embodying truth in our exuberant expressions of creative collaboration.
AQÜL.Co offers a multicultural multifaceted pragmatic perspective for the revolutionary revitalization of our socioeconomic present and a sustainable strategy for humanity's future. We are a global tribe of diverse digital nomads and native craftsmen, modern counterparts of past pioneers like Ibn Battuta and Marco Polo, propelling civilization forward by channeling the forgotten power of our past.
The Travelers
Adventurers across millennia have traversed multitudes of trade and migration routes, meandering over ancient maps and plunging into uncharted territories, seeking the source, driven by the desire to be enriched by the exotic and novel.
Trailblazers
traveling at the vanguard of the nexuses of humanity, leaving behind the familiar comforts of home to boldly venture into the unknown, ultimately becoming the curators of the crafters and creators they found in the far reaches of the world.
The Makers
Artisans and their cottage industries were the critical catalysts of socioeconomic growth and evolution. They plied their craft at the crossroads of humanity's richly diverse destinations of travel and trade, gaining invaluable innovation from the interchange of cultural and regional artisanal advancements.
Pioneers of the exchange and development of designs, ideas, and production processes, the artisans developed guilds to leverage their collective potential as well as institute standards and protocols to ensure quality.
Apprenticeships preserved these practices for generations, painstakingly passed from mentor to apprentice, establishing lasting legacies and ensuring mastery of their arts was never lost, even as the successive onslaughts of colonialism, industrialization and mass production sought to take the reins.
The Crisis
Entire cottage industries lie ravaged and the extinction of long lineages of artisanal mastery continues. The invaluable insight that our human heritage grants us into the past and potential future of socioeconomic sustainability is nearly lost, and that horrific hemorrhage continues to this moment.
No longer harnessed by a supportive and sustainable system and unable to ply their trade, the children of artisans become increasingly urbanized as a cheap unskilled labor force, forced to work at the hands of exploitative corporations and criminals.
Consumption culture and disruptive technology are largely accelerating rather than recovering this societal stagnation. Power and capital are ever more concentrated in the hands of those who profit from the exploitation of the concentration of cheap and mechanized labor that rapidly replicates mediocre products to meet the demands of mindless consumption.
AQUL.Co is a global tribe of curators, creators, and conscious consumers cooperatively campaigning to recover and reclaim the reigns of our collective lives and socioeconomic interrelationships.
We are forging sustainable direct trade routes, preserving human heritage, promoting artisanal industries, and revitalizing local economies.
Revolutionizing the paradigms of our realities and relationships by rallying and reconnecting today's trailblazers, artisans, and adventurers;
together, crafting collective communities of curated creators and conscious consumers.
