Educational, innovational and land-tending cooperatives can generate vital solutions and inspirations in this time of profound emergence and emergency.
Wiki-villes, maker-steads, hacker-habitats, tinker-towns, and technology-oriented ecovillages: Wikitowns are living laboratories for developing and prototyping affordable, accessible and replicable solutions to the challenges of food and energy production, economic and educational models, material scarcities, environmental accord, adapting to rapidly changing technologies and social landscapes, nurturing health and enhancing wellness.
Revenue may be generated by offering education, conferences, healing and wellness services, events, products, incubation and acceleration for appropriate technologies and other health, wealth and happiness-generating start-ups and ventures.
The ways forward are ever more apparent. Rapidly advancing networked information and communication technologies are clarifying that open, free, collaborative and DIY principles are increasingly required to succeed, flourish and remove friction in the areas of science, technology, manufacturing, media, arts, education, politics and markets.
Come join us every other Tuesday at Sudo Room to meet others interested in creating Wikitowns / Maker Villages / Technecovilles. We are particularly interested in creating a communications platform for cross-space autodocumentation, mapping and collaboration, as well as developing an economic system based on cooperative support and barter of products and skills.
