so fridays at 1 pm denver time

site for visual city assembly: https://v-a.city/

A Visual Assembly is a democratic form of creative collaboration – used to reimagine and visualise new ways in which to organise the city or the social systems as a whole.

sounds like city sketchup ness et al

and 2 min video of david describing the child like ness of it [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqoulrutRSk]

liberation for kids is when they get taken seriously
liberation for adults .. can be goofy..
first have to throw off shackles on imagination reverting to child like state..

1 yr to be 5 ness et al

using their own structure of participation as the contents of the city itself

yeah that.. ie: 2 convers as infra

wish we could talk.. wish you could see/hear

this is all what i’ve been experimenting with the last 10 plus yrs..

our findings:

1\ undisturbed ecosystem (common\ing) can happen

2\ if we create a way to ground the chaos of 8b free people

dec 25 – missed this one

Dear All!Today we have a drunken reading group (as Sevda named it!)I want to introduce our guest to everyone.Zinaida Vasilyeva is an anthropologist, researcher at the Munich Center for Technology in Society, TUM. She studied the concept of DIY (“samodeiatelnost”) as part of her dissertation on the culture of amateurism in Russia and the USSR.I am very grateful to Zinaida for agreeing to join us. We do not know each other. I was just introduced to her by Mitya Zacharevich. Her text (in the attachment) if anyone wants to read it.It seems to me that she is a critical intellectual conversational partner for us because her research deals with the same questions that we want to answer.One can understand DIY as a social technology that has the potential of societal transformation. Adrian Bowyer – a creator of Rep Rap 3d talked about it at one of MoC Assemblies. Self-replicating 3 d printers have already created a decentralized worldwide production system.For me, our Museum of Care is an attempt to create similar social structures, but in the cultural and social territory.For me it is what Alexander Bogdanov’s Proletkult could have become but didn’t.

links to 45 min video from mar 2021 – Children as Architects of their own Education – an Insight into Danilo Dolci’s Ecological Maieutics – this is not deep enough.. ie: 13 min – architected to children’s desires.. but ie is of meeting first thing every morning where pick a topic.. that’s already compromising ie: brown belonging law.. imagine if we just focused on listening to the itch-in-8b-souls.. first thing.. everyday.. and used that data to augment our interconnectedness..

we need to let go of any form of m\a\p.. any form of democratic admin.. or we’ll never get back/to the dance.. and instead.. we’ll keeping spinning our wheels (sucking our energy dry, killing us) in sea world aka: the tragedy of the non common
