Entries #15 and #16 are the closest match to Project 20 — NewStar Cell on cri-one.com.

“open idea app — a different way to internet — to design a ethernet cell or satellite based cell phone application that connects people’s phones as pages instead of pages on a server. the main purpose is to communicate and then the other things will gradually fall into place.” — Christopher Gabriel Brown, 2017

From one line to an engineered product

The 2017 abstract describes a decentralized phone network: each handset is a page — a node — rather than a client fetching pages from a central server. Communication is peer-to-peer over an ethernet-cell or satellite link. Entry #16 (“mo-dial comm”) restates it as a different way to do FTP. Together they specify the phone-as-node architecture that Project 20’s NewStar Cell develops.

The idea graduated from a one-line deposition into a patent-pending product without changing its founding claim: make every phone a node, not a client.
