The Upward Spiral – My blog.

Selections from Cairns – Essays, short and long, from twenty-five years of Cairns of HOPE, my quarterly newsletter.

Roaming Upward: Encounters along a 45 year quest – My on-line book tells of my 45-year quest to find an upward way to live within a world shaped by the downward flow towards greater entropy.

For those who prefer an e-book type format, a wonderful professor in Japan converted the book for himself and sent me the links. What a wonderful gift. Leaves me delightfully unsure what is possible.

Here are three links:

And then another man gave me a wonderful gift. Yannick, a man in France, translated Roaming Upward into French.

He did it in a two-step process. He used the deepl translation program to get a rough translation of the complete book. Then he and his bilingual friends read through the translation correcting or improving the translation.

Because deepl can translate into many languages, we realized bilingual readers could translate Roaming Upward into a variety of languages. (I published it under a Creative Commons so readers can make it available to others.) Therefore, Yannick wrote this guide based on his experience.

Download the Word document from this link.
Go to the deepl website and subscribe to the free trial.
Upload the doc and select the language (you might have to split it into 2 parts if it’s too big).
Upload the result on this folder.
Share the link with everyone who might be interested in helping.
Adjust the sentences. Deepl does a pretty good job but it’s not perfect.
Once you’re done, add your names at the bottom, download them as a pdf and an epub file and send an email to paul@krafel.info to let him know :-).

Videos and a Podcast – A variety of presentations of different lengths in different settings.

This site is gradually becoming my new website. You can still access that website with this link. That site contains some of my videos and talks.
