OFFLINE — NEXT SESSION TBA
Open Questions • Real Conversation • Direct Interaction

Live with Marc

A scheduled place for direct conversation with Marc. The public site is the lobby; the gathering itself takes place in a private, invite-only Element/Matrix room with end-to-end encrypted messaging, voice, and video.

Know When to Come Back.

The next gathering is scheduled here. The countdown uses Eastern Time automatically, and the private Element room is shared only with approved participants.

Conversation Topic
Open conversation with Marc

The first live session will be announced here. Bring your questions, ideas, concerns, and the help you want to offer.

The Private Gathering

This page is the lobby. The actual live conversation takes place inside a private Element/Matrix room so the invitation does not have to be exposed publicly on the website.

How Entry Works

Request → Approve → Private Invite → Join

1
Request access below.

Tell Marc who you are and what you would like to discuss.

2
Marc approves the request.

The private meeting URL is not posted on this public page.

3
You receive an Element invitation.

Open it in Element Web/Desktop/Mobile and join the encrypted room.

4
Join the live gathering.

Messaging, voice, video, and the shared conversation happen inside Element.

Request a Private Invitation

Come with a question, an idea, or something you want to contribute.

Marc reviews these requests personally. If approved, you will receive the private Element invitation separately. The public website never needs to reveal the room address.

Creators, engineers, network specialists, marketers, contributors, P2ARC supporters, ARCBYMARC owners, and curious people are welcome to request access.
A Matrix/Element ID is optional now. You can create one before the gathering if you do not already have one.
Use an email where Marc can send your private invitation. A phone number is not required.

This currently prepares an email to Marc. When the ARC direct connection is added later, the same request flow can be connected without changing the public page.

Questions Before the Session

Send a question even if you cannot attend the private gathering.

Send a question or idea ahead of time. It can become part of a future live discussion, and you can include contact details if you would like Marc to follow up directly.

Ask about ARCBYMARC, P2ARC worlds, creator ownership, collaboration, or the pre-release.
Offer a skill, connection, technical resource, marketing idea, or constructive criticism.
Suggest a topic you think people should hear discussed openly.

A Conversation, Not a Performance.

The room is meant to make direct interaction possible without turning every interaction into marketing.

Ask Real Questions

Questions do not have to be praise. Curiosity, disagreement, technical questions, and difficult subjects can all make a conversation useful.

Contribute Something

If you see a way to help—technical, creative, financial, strategic, social, or simply through experience—bring it into the conversation.

Respect the Humans

Critique ideas without attacking people. No harassment, impersonation, spam, or attempts to expose private information.

Private / Longer Conversation

Need More Than the September 19 Gathering?

Request a private one-to-one video meeting. Tell Marc why you want to meet and what you want to discuss; if a private conversation is arranged, Marc will reply with the meeting link directly.
