Welcome to Life in 8-D

I believe in the 8-day week.


It is a simple but powerful statement. My name is Maximilien Hein, and I am the founder and visionary behind the 8-day week. I, along with my fellow New Calendarians, believe that the current calendar system has failed the people of the world, and is therefore in urgent need of reform.

My revelation came at the oddest of moments. I was playing Guitar Hero: World Tour on expert mode many years ago when The Beastie Boys' "No Sleep Till Brooklyn" appeared in the set list. As a fan of such visionary works as this one, I promptly began my attempts at 100%-ing the tune. As I listened through 4 minutes of invigorating meditations on life beyond the 9-to-5, the lyric jumped out at me: "I be rocking this party 8 days a week."

Wonder struck me. 8 days? Was it possible? There had to be a way. I soon found myself without sleep, but my Brooklyn lay on the other side of intense time-based calculation and consideration. I knew there had to be a way, and as the one above whom the proverbial lightbulb ignited, the responsibility fell upon me to find it. Ultimately, for my efforts I was rewarded with the truth.

I have meticulously crafted a bulletproof proposal for calendar reform that promises to radically disrupt the present establishment for the betterment of all.
