Just looking into this event - looks awesome: "Feÿtopia Open Science & Human Pyramids"
https://feytopia.com/events/openscience-humanpyramids2
I've wanted to visit #Feÿtopia for a while (a seasonal commune in a French château...) and this seems like it might be the crossover for me (#OpenScience + #communalLiving!? Let's go!)
Anyone else from my fediverse networks thinking of going?

Episode 5.10: The Us vs Them of Community: Ariel & Christina Discuss
On some very serious level, it’s just not solarpunk if it’s not about a community taking action to make the world a better place. Individualism: it’s just so wrong. It’s fair to say that, not just in solarpunk, but in our cultures, “community” is right up there with “children” as an idea of something inherently good, moral, and wonderful. Community is worshiped as an answer to our problems. But Christina gets a sinking feeling every time she reads a solarpunk story that idolizes community.In this episode, Christina tries to figure out why she’s so suspicious of community and so afraid of being suffocated by the rules, regulations, and norms of community. Join us for our Season 5 closer in which she and Ariel peek at community’s darker sides, like infighting, conformity, the potential for ostracizing people who don’t conform, and the fact that the existence of a community automatically creates a them.

Season 4 episode 1: Solarpunking Housing, with Ariel & Christina
In this kick-off of Season 4, Ariel and Christina tackle the topic of housing. How could solarpunk expand its dreams of housing beyond the aesthetic and into the realm of the practical? It is one of the central imaginings of solarpunk, after all. And it’s something we’re not doing very well in the present.
Can solarpunk envision not just greenery and solar-panel-draped dwellings, but housing that would meet people’s needs, not just for shelter, but comfort, mental health, emotional and physical support, ease of access, friendship and community, and culture, while also being affordable to everyone, energy efficient, and not contributing to urban sprawl? It seems like a tall order, but we want to make it a present reality. Tune in as we discuss!
