I think there needs to be agents, too many forces conspire against
Futurist Programming as I see it.

   8. To render and magnify the life of today, incessantly and
      tumultuously transformed by science triumphant

This is a very key point. Futurist Programming needs a foot hold in todays
computing framework for there to be a movement. I think it is nice that we
have a world wide network with a protocol as simple as IP. There are
possibilities innumerable for making use of this network. A first step
might be to get colorForth computers networked together to take part in an
interactive collaberative environment.
