#Urbánika’s #SolarPunk Bus Tour and Video Course on the #Commons
By David Bollier, July 24, 2024
Excerpt: "The course is free to access, and the bus was developed, thanks to donations by thousands of people. The course is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 license, so that it can be reproduced, remixed, and shared at no cost. In the notes section underneath each video, there are links to resources, weblinks, a self-test review of the content, and an invitation to apply one’s knowledge of commons to the real world. Schools are invited to use the videos in their teaching about commons. Social-action groups may find the videos useful in reflecting on their own organizational dynamics.
"The #PostCapitalism and the Commons video series is a follow-up to a lighter series of educational videos produced by Urbánika two years ago. This series, '#Commoning101 – Learning Pills,' (with #Spanish subtitles), is a series of amusing virtual-reality animations that introduce the commons to viewers in short gulps. The animations feature a space alien, Kin, who engages with an avatar version of me (looking twenty years younger!) in conversations about commons.
"Urbánika plans to use the videos – especially the first series, 'PostCapitalism and the Commons' – as part of an educational bus tour that will soon travel to twenty cities in seven #LatinAmerican countries.
"For this, the group has crowdfunded funds to create a state-of-the-art, climate-friendly 'SolarPunk bus.' This full-size bus has many eco-features as a rain water harvesting system, wind turbine, a rooftop biofilter (to treat gray water to make it drinkable), and dry toilet. There is a black soldier fly #biodigester for organic waste and a vertical garden for food production, among other tech features. The bus will function as a mobile school and home throughout the course of the tour, which aims to 'facilitate the emergence of neighborhoods as urban commons.' It will also encourage the use of 'open source Web 3.0 tech that can help people break free from hierarchical dependencies of the government and the markets.' "
