MysTech
Science with a soul. Technology with a conscience.
MysTech is where the moral question of science gets asked out loud — and where engineers, researchers, and seekers find each other. Three doors in: study, community, and membership.
Education
Live courses, webinars, conferences, and journals — all in service of one question: how should science be done?
- Live-stream study courses
- Webinars & lectures
- Conferences
- Articles & journals
Community
A private community for thinking aloud about science and technology — without surveillance, without ads, without the comment section.
Join Social MysTechMembership
Yearly membership funds the work and gives you back conference access, member journals, and a direct line to the network.

Rudolf Steiner Bookstore · 50 years curating Steiner’s work
A bookstore curated by someone who has read every book on the shelf.
Used books, eBooks, journals, art supplies, advent calendars, and children’s books — every title hand-selected by Frank Dauenhauer, who has spent his life with this material. Donate books, read free resources, or shop the full catalog.
Threefold Publishing
Books that activate moral intuition.
Threefold Publishing reissues and originates titles that don’t fit any other publisher’s list — work that takes Steiner’s social ideas seriously and presses them forward. Now available: The Social World as Mystery Center — revised, expanded, re-set.
Good2Fund
Find the project. Or fund it.
Good2Fund is matchmaking for values-aligned ventures — the founders building something CFAE believes in, and the donors and investors who want to back it. Browse what’s open, or pitch your own.
Tonalitá / Lautsänger
The half of sound your headphones never reproduce.
Lautsänger is to headphones what Dolby was to cinema — a sound technology, not a hardware brand. Cymatic Organs, hand-fitted to existing headphones in a small German workshop, restore the inward pull every recording loses. Tonalitá is the exclusive North American distributor.

Local Commons
Healthy Communities, Thriving Businesses.
Local Commons is the long work of putting business, culture, and rights back into right relationship — block by block, town by town. The frame is Steiner’s threefold social order. The application is your neighborhood.
Economy
Build the kinds of small businesses people actually want to work in — the model that lets a town live, not just earn.
Culture
Knit local businesses, schools, and cultural groups into one ecosystem — reinvested in the people who make it.
Rights
Hold each sphere — economy, culture, rights — to its own purpose. None of them can do another’s job without harming both.
Our aims
- Create an environment that fosters small business creation and growth.
- Build strong alliances between businesses and cultural / nonprofit organizations.
- Facilitate investments back into people.
- Develop clear distinctions between the needs of Society and those of the Economy and Rights.
- Create a duplicatable business model that allows for society to “live to work” rather than “work to live.”
