**Twois** is a project that understands *stories* to be the fundamental unit of subjective human experience. The subjective goodness of one's life is then determined by the quality and quantity of the stories one experiences. So, if you want to enable each to live the best live one can, you need to increase the quality and quantity of the stories each can experience. This is the mission of **twois**. The two key challenges **twois** is tackling are: 1. How to empower **one** individual to experience the highest quality and quantity of stories. 2. How to empower **each** individual to experience the highest quality and quantity of stories. The first challenge is about answering what it takes for one to be able to experience the highest quality and quantity of stories. The second challenge is about extending the answer for each individual in the world. One part of the second challenge is ensuring each has access to the technologies enabling these stories, and another part is minimizing the capability to harm or restrict others' ability to enjoy their stories. The expectation is for the solution to these challenges to involve a trade of greater constraints in the physical world for greater freedom and empowerment in virtual worlds. Tackling these challenges will involve many sub-projects, the first one being **[[Personal Distributed Computer (PDC)]]**. This will build the foundation for empowering what one can do for oneself in the digital realm, while constraining what one can non-consensually do to others.
