I think the Rajneesh movement is a pretty bad example of the kind of project the OP talks about. Among the ways it could be improved on, it would be nice to not destroy a town which was already there, to build a secular community without a cult leader, to avoid kidnapping and drugging homeless people, and to not poison hundreds of people in an attempt to interfere with an election. Oh, and maybe let people wear a color that isn't red.
