1
00:00:00,540 --> 00:00:01,540
this December

2
00:00:01,540 --> 00:00:02,540
diplomats from around the world

3
00:00:02,540 --> 00:00:03,890
meet once again

4
00:00:03,890 --> 00:00:04,640
to sit

5
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:05,270
and talk

6
00:00:05,270 --> 00:00:07,550
about climate change

7
00:00:07,550 --> 00:00:10,660
But 20 years of UN climate summit and talkings

8
00:00:10,780 --> 00:00:13,590
haven’t stopped CO2 levels from rising

9
00:00:13,830 --> 00:00:15,890
Instead, global emissions have doubled

10
00:00:15,930 --> 00:00:18,930
since the first since the first UN climate meeting in 1995

11
00:00:19,780 --> 00:00:22,950
While our rainforests die and the Arctic ice melts

12
00:00:22,970 --> 00:00:26,020
our politicians prepare for yet another talk

13
00:00:26,020 --> 00:00:28,090
this December in Paris

14
00:00:28,750 --> 00:00:30,610
So we came up with a different idea

15
00:00:31,660 --> 00:00:33,530
We call it POC21

16
00:00:33,530 --> 00:00:36,060
A proof of concept that the future we need

17
00:00:36,060 --> 00:00:38,340
can be built with our own hands

18
00:01:02,550 --> 00:01:04,379
POC21 brings together 12 sustainable,

19
00:01:04,379 --> 00:01:07,050
open source hardware projects

20
00:01:12,010 --> 00:01:13,950
for 5 weeks of colaboration,

21
00:01:13,950 --> 00:01:16,470
co-living and development

22
00:01:21,490 --> 00:01:23,690
to build the tools we need

23
00:01:23,690 --> 00:01:25,730
for the world we want

24
00:01:32,290 --> 00:01:34,190
We see a lot of potential

25
00:01:34,190 --> 00:01:37,000
and creativity of innovators, 'makers'

26
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,940
who build sustainable products and solutions

27
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,450
but we think that right now they maybe lack some basic

28
00:01:45,190 --> 00:01:47,180
design support, communication support,

29
00:01:47,180 --> 00:01:48,580
tech support,

30
00:01:48,580 --> 00:01:51,350
a different set of skills or tools

31
00:01:51,380 --> 00:01:57,220
that can help bring them to the next level and possibly to scale.

32
00:01:57,500 --> 00:01:59,530
12 developing projects were selected

33
00:01:59,530 --> 00:02:01,660
to take part in POC21

34
00:02:01,670 --> 00:02:05,100
each aims to combat or adapt to climate change -

35
00:02:05,150 --> 00:02:08,020
with access to energy, food, livelihood or sanitation

36
00:02:08,020 --> 00:02:11,020
all are open source - anyone can study, build upon

37
00:02:11,210 --> 00:02:14,210
or help improve them, even you

38
00:02:17,310 --> 00:02:19,900
Low-Cost 3D-printed Water Filter

39
00:02:22,310 --> 00:02:24,640
DIY Resilient Energy

40
00:02:27,180 --> 00:02:29,760
Modern Lo-Tech Living Kitchen

41
00:02:32,870 --> 00:02:35,510
Automated Permaculture Greenhouse

42
00:02:38,060 --> 00:02:40,850
Bio-inspired Energy-Saving kettle

43
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,360
Portable Solar Generator

44
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,210
Understanding Energy Use & Generation

45
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,220
Solar Concentrator

46
00:02:58,510 --> 00:03:01,610
Mobile Energy Modules

47
00:03:03,850 --> 00:03:06,500
Energy-Saving Circular Shower

48
00:03:09,260 --> 00:03:11,480
Urban Agriculture Kits

49
00:03:14,270 --> 00:03:16,860
Fossil-Free Farming

50
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,200
WEEK ZERO: SETUP

51
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,480
50 team members, participants and volunteers

52
00:03:20,490 --> 00:03:22,090
arrive early to help prepare the camp

53
00:03:24,930 --> 00:03:27,020
We didn't know what we were getting into.

54
00:03:29,450 --> 00:03:35,480
Now I can imagine how the settlers in the early ages felt when they were setting up a village.

55
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,830
In fact the Chateau is not used

56
00:03:41,830 --> 00:03:45,150
so we cleaned everything we put electricity everywhere

57
00:03:45,790 --> 00:03:47,960
we put smoke detectors in each room, mattresses everywhere…

58
00:03:50,850 --> 00:03:54,390
Basically we are building a structure of 30 tents

59
00:03:55,250 --> 00:03:57,340
It takes around half an hour if you’re used to doing it

60
00:03:57,350 --> 00:04:00,270
At the beginning it was like 2 hours.

61
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,860
Don’t be fooled by my pants

62
00:04:05,910 --> 00:04:07,450
I know what I’m doing

63
00:04:11,990 --> 00:04:14,190
OK, my pants may be right then

64
00:04:20,190 --> 00:04:23,500
It was a little bit crazy, everything had been brought from outside

65
00:04:25,350 --> 00:04:29,310
which means wood to make the building for the kitchen and a small house for the showers

66
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,060
we brought all the cables, all the electricity from outside.

67
00:04:32,660 --> 00:04:36,280
We brought also all the stuff for the kitchen : fridge, oven, etc…

68
00:04:40,730 --> 00:04:41,700
Happy?

69
00:04:42,340 --> 00:04:46,720
Yes, we still need some showers, some signage,

70
00:04:47,300 --> 00:04:55,750
wifi, electricity, and some desks to work on.

71
00:04:56,510 --> 00:04:59,260
It’s going well. Oh, and the kitchen too.

72
00:05:01,820 --> 00:05:03,890
The setup week was really extreme

73
00:05:03,890 --> 00:05:08,500
we had really a lot of things to do, we were running everywhere

74
00:05:08,500 --> 00:05:12,500
the challenge was to get down, breathe,

75
00:05:12,660 --> 00:05:18,630
and be comfortable with the people who were coming

76
00:05:18,630 --> 00:05:20,880
because it was really stressful

77
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:25,250
and we didn’t want to give that kind of stress to the participants.

78
00:05:49,810 --> 00:05:52,300
I had no idea what was awaiting me

79
00:05:52,330 --> 00:05:54,700
it was something I've never done

80
00:05:55,050 --> 00:06:00,270
it was like before the first day at school in my life.

81
00:06:12,420 --> 00:06:14,050
it's pretty impressive, man!

82
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,870
so we will just do a short walk and show you the area.

83
00:06:43,980 --> 00:06:47,320
actually, the idea for POC21 is the idea for Open State.

84
00:06:49,030 --> 00:06:51,160
The starting point for Open State

85
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,880
which is the Berlin part of the POC team

86
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,120
was with two friends and colleagues,

87
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,560
Dominik and Simon.

88
00:07:00,660 --> 00:07:03,720
At some point we met on the River Spree in Berlin

89
00:07:03,770 --> 00:07:07,290
and thought about what is actually the impact we can have

90
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:10,300
on that topic of climate change and sustainability

91
00:07:10,350 --> 00:07:12,670
in this way too short lifetime.

92
00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:15,480
The climate crisis is kind of like

93
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,480
this tsunami that you see on the horizon

94
00:07:19,140 --> 00:07:23,030
You're still kind of laying at the beach, enjoying your drinks

95
00:07:23,210 --> 00:07:25,180
and you know it will come

96
00:07:25,180 --> 00:07:27,420
and you feel paralyzed.

97
00:07:27,820 --> 00:07:30,190
We always thought about

98
00:07:30,190 --> 00:07:33,310
creating social situations which would be midterm

99
00:07:33,310 --> 00:07:35,140
like some weeks at least.

100
00:07:35,350 --> 00:07:38,720
More than just hackathons, conferences, or workshops

101
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:40,120
Enable people to join forces

102
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,420
bring together different cultural backgrounds

103
00:07:42,420 --> 00:07:45,040
different perspectives, experiences, and skill sets.

104
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,170
But the problem was always

105
00:07:46,170 --> 00:07:48,750
you need a space for that

106
00:07:48,750 --> 00:07:52,200
and you just need a huge team that can actually do it.

107
00:07:59,460 --> 00:08:01,680
Ouishare was built as a collective

108
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,510
to bring together entrepreneurs, researchers

109
00:08:05,510 --> 00:08:07,250
people generally interested in

110
00:08:07,250 --> 00:08:09,460
peer-to-peer and the collaborative economy

111
00:08:09,460 --> 00:08:11,270
we do events, we do research

112
00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:13,920
we try to foster collective thinking

113
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,830
and incubate new projects

114
00:08:15,830 --> 00:08:17,350
around the the collaborative economy,

115
00:08:17,350 --> 00:08:18,200
open source,

116
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,580
and peer-to-peer in general

117
00:08:19,690 --> 00:08:22,500
since the first OuiShare Fest in 2013

118
00:08:22,500 --> 00:08:25,110
Ben & I have been working on

119
00:08:25,110 --> 00:08:27,790
the subject of Making and Distributed Manufacturing

120
00:08:27,790 --> 00:08:28,930
Hello everybody,

121
00:08:28,930 --> 00:08:31,400
thanks Ben for the kind introduction,

122
00:08:31,590 --> 00:08:32,340
At some point

123
00:08:32,340 --> 00:08:34,700
Dominik was invited as one of the speakers

124
00:08:34,700 --> 00:08:37,919
and the two stories fusioned together

125
00:08:40,549 --> 00:08:42,830
When I read the website about POC21

126
00:08:42,830 --> 00:08:45,190
I thought it was like a dream come true

127
00:08:45,190 --> 00:08:46,770
because everything that I like

128
00:08:46,770 --> 00:08:50,280
and that I value about life,

129
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,720
like sustainability, making,

130
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,480
co-living,

131
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,040
and cooperating with other people

132
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,430
It was a like a dream come true.

133
00:08:59,540 --> 00:09:03,110
I see huge value in bringing together

134
00:09:03,110 --> 00:09:08,030
the open source and tech mindset

135
00:09:08,590 --> 00:09:11,660
with the iteration of processes and

136
00:09:11,660 --> 00:09:14,100
the more socially-focused group work, community-building aspect

137
00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:15,370
and I think when you bring those two together

138
00:09:15,370 --> 00:09:16,620
they have different value sets

139
00:09:16,620 --> 00:09:17,860
but they really interact well when they come together.

140
00:09:17,860 --> 00:09:19,880
Trying out many new things

141
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,790
but also giving processes some time

142
00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:25,250
and letting people learn about

143
00:09:25,250 --> 00:09:28,360
interaction and communities.

144
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:29,550
When we started

145
00:09:29,550 --> 00:09:31,590
we came into a camp

146
00:09:31,590 --> 00:09:34,400
that is about developing 12 projects.

147
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,220
What I personally didn't think about

148
00:09:37,340 --> 00:09:39,760
is that it requires a lot of people

149
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,050
to do it

150
00:09:41,050 --> 00:09:42,490
It's a small village

151
00:09:43,230 --> 00:09:44,440
and a small village

152
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,250
requires a lot of organization

153
00:09:49,460 --> 00:09:51,020
We are more than 100 people

154
00:09:51,020 --> 00:09:53,550
living together during more than 5 weeks,

155
00:09:53,550 --> 00:09:56,410
so we need to attribute tasks

156
00:09:56,410 --> 00:10:00,170
and everyone has to take their part to work on it

157
00:10:00,170 --> 00:10:01,840
so there are different tasks

158
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:02,870
like toilet care,

159
00:10:02,870 --> 00:10:04,150
kitchen clean,

160
00:10:04,150 --> 00:10:05,240
cooking heroes,

161
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:06,310
garbage crew,

162
00:10:06,310 --> 00:10:07,580
and night guardians

163
00:10:07,670 --> 00:10:10,090
Basically with this co-living stuff

164
00:10:10,090 --> 00:10:13,370
we are sure that we can live all together in a proper way

165
00:10:25,230 --> 00:10:27,580
people from the logistics team

166
00:10:27,580 --> 00:10:29,630
are sitting until 1 or 2 in the morning

167
00:10:29,630 --> 00:10:32,330
taking care of the travel, accommodations,

168
00:10:32,330 --> 00:10:34,370
somehow running the whole thing

169
00:10:34,370 --> 00:10:37,650
there are people that buy supplies

170
00:10:37,650 --> 00:10:39,850
and all having the thought in mind

171
00:10:39,850 --> 00:10:41,670
that it should be sustainable, it should be local.

172
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,580
so, sustainability requires

173
00:10:43,580 --> 00:10:46,050
a lot of logistics

174
00:10:46,510 --> 00:10:48,170
this is the organic compost

175
00:10:48,170 --> 00:10:49,540
just for food waste

176
00:10:50,220 --> 00:10:52,140
so everything that we don't give to the chickens

177
00:10:52,140 --> 00:10:53,620
goes in here

178
00:10:53,620 --> 00:10:57,390
and it's made from palettes

179
00:10:59,170 --> 00:11:00,540
and re-used cardboard

180
00:11:00,540 --> 00:11:02,340
dry toilets are a good solution

181
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,940
because they don’t use water at all

182
00:11:05,940 --> 00:11:07,480
Generally toilets use 9L

183
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,310
every time we flush,

184
00:11:09,310 --> 00:11:12,840
and that’s drinking water.

185
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,270
many people were not really aware

186
00:11:15,270 --> 00:11:16,870
of how it works

187
00:11:16,870 --> 00:11:18,550
and it’s a very...

188
00:11:18,730 --> 00:11:21,940
personal thing

189
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,030
and they had to get used to it

190
00:11:25,030 --> 00:11:27,660
We were a bit scared of the reactions

191
00:11:27,660 --> 00:11:30,200
but there was no other solutions

192
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,180
and it went quite well

193
00:11:34,180 --> 00:11:35,410
We have a lot of wood

194
00:11:35,410 --> 00:11:37,880
and leftovers from different building operations

195
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:38,740
and we keep them

196
00:11:38,740 --> 00:11:39,870
to use them for furniture

197
00:11:39,870 --> 00:11:41,890
and for construction

198
00:11:41,890 --> 00:11:44,640
We have mainly vegetarian meals,

199
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,740
we try to reduce meat as much as possible

200
00:11:46,740 --> 00:11:50,060
because meat is responsible for a lot of carbon emissions

201
00:11:50,060 --> 00:11:52,700
We want to be as coherent as we can

202
00:11:52,700 --> 00:11:55,700
while respecting people’s habits at the same time

203
00:11:55,700 --> 00:12:01,500
We have vegetables and fruits, from local and organic places

204
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:02,600
we went to pick them up

205
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,020
on Sundays

206
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,660
we go to pick up some fruit at the farm

207
00:12:06,930 --> 00:12:08,730
which is 10-15 km from here.

208
00:12:25,570 --> 00:12:28,310
WEEK ONE: Participants meet with designers & engineers to discuss their projects

209
00:12:34,190 --> 00:12:36,390
The first week was there for shaking them up,

210
00:12:36,390 --> 00:12:37,650
saying,

211
00:12:37,650 --> 00:12:38,950
"Hey, nice project but

212
00:12:38,950 --> 00:12:41,600
we are not here to develop that like it is

213
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,470
because then you could just do that at home

214
00:12:43,470 --> 00:12:45,180
so we have all kinds of skills sets

215
00:12:45,180 --> 00:12:46,750
and interesting people to mingle with

216
00:12:46,750 --> 00:12:49,330
and to rethink what you're actually doing."

217
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,040
it's interesting how

218
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,900
each project is at a different stage of development

219
00:12:54,900 --> 00:12:58,710
some of them, they have to still work very hard

220
00:12:58,710 --> 00:13:00,470
on making sure they are answering the right questions

221
00:13:00,470 --> 00:13:03,060
because their initial assumptions

222
00:13:03,230 --> 00:13:05,720
may start from the wrong point

223
00:13:08,290 --> 00:13:10,160
there are some projects in which you say

224
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:11,160
OK,

225
00:13:11,630 --> 00:13:13,590
you just have to think about

226
00:13:13,590 --> 00:13:15,240
how to take it to the world

227
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:16,550
it’s done

228
00:13:16,550 --> 00:13:17,550
it’s a great idea,

229
00:13:17,550 --> 00:13:19,660
a great working prototype,

230
00:13:19,660 --> 00:13:20,660
even in some cases

231
00:13:20,660 --> 00:13:22,880
it’s a product that's commercialized

232
00:13:23,130 --> 00:13:24,030
in other cases

233
00:13:24,030 --> 00:13:25,530
you think OK, this is totally wrong,

234
00:13:25,530 --> 00:13:28,410
this product shouldn’t exist in the world

235
00:13:28,410 --> 00:13:29,510
but,

236
00:13:29,510 --> 00:13:31,110
your design principles are great.

237
00:13:37,420 --> 00:13:39,540
I'm part of the Nautile project

238
00:13:39,550 --> 00:13:42,550
which is a bio-inspired kettle

239
00:13:42,550 --> 00:13:45,550
that is a test case project for methodology

240
00:13:45,550 --> 00:13:47,000
showing how we can

241
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,760
systematically redesign products from everyday life

242
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,540
with bio inspiration

243
00:13:52,540 --> 00:13:54,070
to make them more sustainable

244
00:13:54,190 --> 00:13:55,500
what we have now is a model

245
00:13:55,500 --> 00:13:56,760
it's an hypothesis

246
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,420
we need to make it real

247
00:13:58,420 --> 00:14:01,940
we had a discussion with Tomas Diez from FabLab Barcelona

248
00:14:01,940 --> 00:14:05,990
on the feasibility of 3D printing the kettle in ceramics

249
00:14:05,990 --> 00:14:07,230
at a reasonable price,

250
00:14:07,230 --> 00:14:08,730
which is not the case

251
00:14:08,820 --> 00:14:11,360
In the end we kind of agree on the fact that

252
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:15,660
the design we boiled down from many principles

253
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,790
was not the right one for what we want to do

254
00:14:19,010 --> 00:14:20,860
what we have to do now

255
00:14:20,860 --> 00:14:24,370
is really re-prioritize all our objectives

256
00:14:24,370 --> 00:14:28,450
and get back to a new realistic product

257
00:14:28,450 --> 00:14:30,400
we can then detail design,

258
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,160
and produce over the next few weeks.

259
00:14:35,310 --> 00:14:36,740
wWe are here at POC

260
00:14:36,740 --> 00:14:40,530
developing open source open agriculture kits

261
00:14:40,530 --> 00:14:42,310
that can be downloaded

262
00:14:42,310 --> 00:14:45,160
and CNC routed - cut -

263
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,550
out of plywood or other sheet materials

264
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,700
and assembled really easily

265
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,160
some people like Simon said to me:

266
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,860
"I’m one of your potential customers,

267
00:14:56,860 --> 00:14:58,300
and this is the reason

268
00:14:58,300 --> 00:15:02,210
I’m not sold yet on what you’re doing."

269
00:15:02,210 --> 00:15:05,030
because right now when I see myself as a customer,

270
00:15:05,030 --> 00:15:06,750
it would still be a huge hassle

271
00:15:06,750 --> 00:15:07,940
to download the files,

272
00:15:07,940 --> 00:15:09,250
go to a FabLab,

273
00:15:09,250 --> 00:15:10,330
CNC cut them,

274
00:15:10,330 --> 00:15:11,270
get the pieces,

275
00:15:11,270 --> 00:15:15,800
still then I have a very very simple raised bed

276
00:15:18,460 --> 00:15:21,810
I'm kind of missing the added value

277
00:15:21,810 --> 00:15:24,900
over just going to Castorama

278
00:15:24,900 --> 00:15:26,520
buying 4 pieces of wood

279
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,120
putting it in my garden...

280
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,110
you know what I mean?

281
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,710
I'm just trying to help you, I really like the idea

282
00:15:34,530 --> 00:15:36,220
the core of what you're doing

283
00:15:36,220 --> 00:15:39,290
is the modularity, I think

284
00:15:39,730 --> 00:15:42,730
that enables like a Lego system

285
00:15:42,730 --> 00:15:44,500
I was confused for a bit about

286
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:47,070
"oh, does this mean we have to go back and redesign everything?"

287
00:15:47,070 --> 00:15:49,220
and that was kind of a really ominous feeling

288
00:15:49,220 --> 00:15:53,070
that made me actually feel really kind of nervous and scared

289
00:15:53,070 --> 00:15:54,750
because we’ve done all this work

290
00:15:54,750 --> 00:15:57,280
and do we have to now go back and redo it all?

291
00:15:57,290 --> 00:15:59,910
And fortunately other people came along

292
00:15:59,910 --> 00:16:01,470
and added on top of that, and were like

293
00:16:01,470 --> 00:16:04,530
"just rethink certain elements of what you’re doing

294
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,130
and bring them to the next iteration,

295
00:16:07,130 --> 00:16:08,060
the next line,

296
00:16:08,060 --> 00:16:10,830
the next development cycle you go into."

297
00:16:10,890 --> 00:16:12,300
The difficulty that you’re facing,

298
00:16:12,300 --> 00:16:14,350
like in any other project,

299
00:16:14,350 --> 00:16:17,560
is to be both open

300
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:18,960
to listen to advice,

301
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,170
new ideas

302
00:16:21,170 --> 00:16:24,040
suggestions, discussions

303
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,360
to have that ability to listen

304
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,210
and at the same time

305
00:16:28,210 --> 00:16:31,200
to have the ability to know what you’re going to do

306
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,620
and to be firm on realizing things

307
00:16:35,620 --> 00:16:38,070
it’s a kind of schizophrenic ability

308
00:16:38,990 --> 00:16:42,430
MAKING POC21 ACCESSIBLE: Opening up the camp

309
00:16:52,470 --> 00:16:54,740
I think it's important we frame this for the public

310
00:16:54,740 --> 00:16:57,340
just to reach out to these other groups of society

311
00:16:57,340 --> 00:17:00,880
so it's easier for other people to just have access

312
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,100
because open source is one thing

313
00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:06,450
but as long as it's closed into engineering circles

314
00:17:06,450 --> 00:17:08,990
and super expert circles

315
00:17:08,990 --> 00:17:11,980
it will not take off

316
00:17:15,339 --> 00:17:16,470
bonjour and hello!

317
00:17:16,470 --> 00:17:19,280
I’m Zoe from the POC21 Live Magazine

318
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,390
we’re standing at the gates of Chateau Millemont

319
00:17:22,390 --> 00:17:24,900
and I want to show you around

320
00:17:24,900 --> 00:17:26,260
just follow me

321
00:17:30,620 --> 00:17:32,380
we’re going to the lounge now

322
00:17:32,380 --> 00:17:35,910
we all meet here, all generations, all people

323
00:17:35,910 --> 00:17:39,050
this is like our big living room I would say

324
00:17:44,710 --> 00:17:46,110
here in the back you can see the showers

325
00:17:46,110 --> 00:17:48,550
in the beginning when the showers didn’t exist yet

326
00:17:48,550 --> 00:17:50,440
we had those solar shower bags

327
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:51,530
they were lying in the sun

328
00:17:51,530 --> 00:17:52,600
then you could hang it up

329
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,250
and have a shower in the nature

330
00:17:54,250 --> 00:17:57,030
now we have real luxurious showers

331
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,650
can we come and film you?

332
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,450
this is Phillipp and Mercé

333
00:18:03,690 --> 00:18:05,760
we're making a Caprese

334
00:18:06,690 --> 00:18:09,540
it’s like a tomato production factory here

335
00:18:10,360 --> 00:18:11,700
let’s go to the Factory

336
00:18:11,700 --> 00:18:13,560
this is the place where all the magic happens

337
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:14,890
and where all the machines are

338
00:18:14,890 --> 00:18:16,520
basically a classical FabLab.

339
00:18:27,740 --> 00:18:29,640
FabLab stands for FABrication LABoratory

340
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,590
it’s a place where you can find

341
00:18:31,590 --> 00:18:33,530
machines and people

342
00:18:33,530 --> 00:18:35,670
that can help you make almost anything

343
00:18:35,670 --> 00:18:36,750
there are tools

344
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,320
to bring manufacturing closer to the users

345
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,070
and bring back the knowledge of making things to people

346
00:18:42,180 --> 00:18:44,890
which we lost a couple hundred years ago

347
00:18:44,890 --> 00:18:46,540
with the massive industrialization

348
00:18:46,540 --> 00:18:48,280
that we are living in today

349
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,200
it’s basically about empowering people

350
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:51,440
through technology

351
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,260
to affect reality, to change reality

352
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,380
the FabLab at POC21

353
00:18:57,380 --> 00:19:00,140
looks like any other FabLab in the world

354
00:19:00,460 --> 00:19:01,660
you can use a laser cutter

355
00:19:01,660 --> 00:19:03,890
to cut textiles, wood in small pieces

356
00:19:03,890 --> 00:19:05,760
to make smaller prototypes

357
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,830
or some parts of larger prototypes

358
00:19:07,830 --> 00:19:10,720
you can find a large-scale milling machine

359
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,000
that can help you cut pieces of metal, wood

360
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,060
which you can make from furniture to entire houses

361
00:19:17,060 --> 00:19:18,720
or large structures

362
00:19:23,850 --> 00:19:25,200
a CNC machine

363
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,170
is a milling machine that can place itself

364
00:19:28,170 --> 00:19:29,760
with computer-based code

365
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,620
you design something on your computer

366
00:19:31,620 --> 00:19:33,100
then you go through a program

367
00:19:33,100 --> 00:19:34,680
that will generate G-code

368
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,960
which commands the machine.

369
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,410
one of the cool tools we have here

370
00:19:39,410 --> 00:19:41,090
is a 3D printer

371
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,050
it uses a material in an additive way

372
00:19:44,050 --> 00:19:46,800
so rather than doing like a CNC machine which cuts out

373
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,700
a 3D printer builds up

374
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:49,960
what we’re looking at here

375
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,690
is just a 3D model

376
00:19:51,690 --> 00:19:54,560
once that’s ready we put it on a SD card

377
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:55,670
and we put it in the machine

378
00:19:55,670 --> 00:19:56,870
and it’s ready to go.

379
00:19:56,870 --> 00:19:58,420
we have a cable of plastic

380
00:19:58,420 --> 00:20:00,780
that we heat up until it melts

381
00:20:00,780 --> 00:20:02,900
then the 3D printer lays it down

382
00:20:02,900 --> 00:20:05,030
in layers on top of each other

383
00:20:05,220 --> 00:20:07,400
if you can imagine an object

384
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:08,830
and it’s physically possible

385
00:20:08,830 --> 00:20:10,790
you can definitely 3D print it.

386
00:20:11,140 --> 00:20:16,290
the FabLab network is 557 FabLabs around the world

387
00:20:16,290 --> 00:20:17,770
it’s not only places with machines

388
00:20:17,770 --> 00:20:19,060
it’s about the people behind them,

389
00:20:19,060 --> 00:20:21,080
the community that is exchanging knowledge

390
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:22,650
about the future of fabrication

391
00:20:22,870 --> 00:20:24,150
and specifically,

392
00:20:24,150 --> 00:20:26,870
about the future of digital fabrication

393
00:20:26,870 --> 00:20:28,290
one of the keys of a FabLab

394
00:20:28,290 --> 00:20:30,060
is to have common equipment

395
00:20:30,060 --> 00:20:32,280
that allows the exchange of digital knowledge

396
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:33,650
around the world

397
00:20:33,650 --> 00:20:34,790
so I can design something here

398
00:20:34,790 --> 00:20:35,730
in Paris

399
00:20:35,730 --> 00:20:37,670
and just upload the content

400
00:20:37,670 --> 00:20:39,280
and then in Cape Town in South Africa

401
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:40,450
they can download it, adapt it,

402
00:20:40,450 --> 00:20:42,300
and manufacture it with the same tools

403
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,010
that happens in terms of minutes, of seconds

404
00:20:45,070 --> 00:20:48,660
Week 2: Supporters & Mentors help the projects to refine their concepts

405
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:54,750
Not a lot of people think

406
00:20:54,750 --> 00:20:58,290
from the very physical, technological principles

407
00:20:58,290 --> 00:20:59,900
towards the end product

408
00:20:59,900 --> 00:21:02,420
The strength of this format

409
00:21:02,420 --> 00:21:04,390
is it brings a lot of people together

410
00:21:04,390 --> 00:21:05,350
some are specialists,

411
00:21:05,350 --> 00:21:06,650
some are generalists

412
00:21:06,650 --> 00:21:07,930
and we try to enter with

413
00:21:07,930 --> 00:21:11,070
all these different skills and abilities.

414
00:21:12,620 --> 00:21:15,070
When we talk about sustainability

415
00:21:15,070 --> 00:21:18,520
it's a way of thinking, of designing

416
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,690
it's not just about choosing the right material

417
00:21:21,690 --> 00:21:25,450
I think my main role here is to help them

418
00:21:25,450 --> 00:21:27,210
not just say 'this is the right material'

419
00:21:27,210 --> 00:21:28,600
'use that or use this'

420
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,400
but to give them parameters

421
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,060
so they understand

422
00:21:32,060 --> 00:21:36,000
the logic behind using one material or another

423
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:39,260
As we are project designers

424
00:21:39,260 --> 00:21:43,660
we don't have any expertise in aquaponic

425
00:21:43,660 --> 00:21:46,410
or kitchen or mechanical or anything like that

426
00:21:46,410 --> 00:21:47,560
and this is why we are here:

427
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,590
to get people who know, really know.

428
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,610
I really talked with Bicitractor guys

429
00:21:53,610 --> 00:21:55,260
and they did fly wheels

430
00:21:55,260 --> 00:21:56,940
and mechanical stuff before

431
00:21:56,940 --> 00:21:59,520
and so they said, okay you should do this and this

432
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,100
and then you can try that tomorrow

433
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,170
One guy from the TV channel,

434
00:22:04,170 --> 00:22:07,010
how do you call that? -"Boom Operator"

435
00:22:07,010 --> 00:22:08,710
The boom operator was looking at my drawings

436
00:22:08,710 --> 00:22:10,770
and said, okay just a second

437
00:22:10,770 --> 00:22:12,960
you should do this and this...

438
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:14,920
And even here it was constructive.

439
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,600
There is one phase in the project

440
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,970
that we need to be open

441
00:22:19,970 --> 00:22:23,450
then after I think we need to be more closed to advices

442
00:22:23,450 --> 00:22:25,650
because it's only five weeks

443
00:22:25,650 --> 00:22:28,170
and it's very short so we have to go

444
00:22:28,270 --> 00:22:29,900
at one moment we have to say, okay we do this

445
00:22:29,900 --> 00:22:31,070
maybe it's not the best idea

446
00:22:31,070 --> 00:22:32,290
but we do it

447
00:22:32,290 --> 00:22:33,570
and we make it work.

448
00:22:33,610 --> 00:22:35,710
We hope everything will work at the first try

449
00:22:35,710 --> 00:22:37,690
but it will never happen

450
00:22:37,690 --> 00:22:39,320
This is why there is one hundred people

451
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:40,270
to help you

452
00:22:40,270 --> 00:22:43,160
to go fast and to re-do it again and again

453
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,210
within the five weeks,

454
00:22:45,210 --> 00:22:46,910
but yeah that's my biggest fear

455
00:22:46,910 --> 00:22:48,850
that the mechanical part, for example, won't work

456
00:22:48,850 --> 00:22:50,710
or even the kitchen won't work

457
00:22:50,710 --> 00:22:53,130
but it will work. it will work.

458
00:22:53,130 --> 00:22:54,070
I hope so.

459
00:22:55,460 --> 00:22:59,550
Some teams are in need of some engineering advice

460
00:22:59,550 --> 00:23:02,460
and some teams are in need of design advice,

461
00:23:03,460 --> 00:23:06,360
and some are just in need

462
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,360
of a haircut, right?

463
00:23:23,340 --> 00:23:25,640
it's done?

464
00:23:26,210 --> 00:23:27,780
how do you feel, Kim?

465
00:23:27,780 --> 00:23:30,450
it's awesome. it's really good.

466
00:23:30,450 --> 00:23:32,070
I am a fresh man now.

467
00:23:32,590 --> 00:23:33,910
Open Source Documentation

468
00:23:33,910 --> 00:23:35,770
A dedicated team helps the projects

469
00:23:35,770 --> 00:23:37,800
to create manuals & tutorials

470
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,470
All of the projects being developed here

471
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:45,930
are open source,

472
00:23:45,930 --> 00:23:49,610
and documentation is a very important aspect of open source

473
00:23:49,610 --> 00:23:50,610
to diffuse the idea

474
00:23:50,610 --> 00:23:53,400
and make it accessible to other people

475
00:23:53,610 --> 00:23:56,690
the idea is to show how the product is built

476
00:23:56,690 --> 00:23:57,690
step-by-step

477
00:23:57,690 --> 00:23:59,420
and also to show

478
00:23:59,420 --> 00:24:01,780
the process of decision-making inside a product

479
00:24:01,780 --> 00:24:05,530
because sometimes you'll choose one material over another

480
00:24:05,530 --> 00:24:07,430
and there's a reason for that

481
00:24:07,430 --> 00:24:12,440
showing this allows the community who will develop it

482
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,610
to go a step further, knowing already

483
00:24:14,610 --> 00:24:18,650
ok, this material isn't good for this project, and why not

484
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,760
in the open source method of collaboration,

485
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,470
many people work together, on projects

486
00:24:24,470 --> 00:24:26,020
whose plans, code

487
00:24:26,020 --> 00:24:28,840
or "recipes" are shared online.

488
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,640
people collaborate like this to build

489
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:31,820
open source cars,

490
00:24:31,820 --> 00:24:33,200
3D printers,

491
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,650
and even houses.

492
00:24:34,650 --> 00:24:36,820
These ideas can spread around the world

493
00:24:36,820 --> 00:24:38,170
and evolve quickly

494
00:24:38,170 --> 00:24:41,090
as different people adapt and improve them.

495
00:24:41,930 --> 00:24:47,320
If you imagine applying this speed and efficiency

496
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,610
of development in research

497
00:24:49,610 --> 00:24:51,860
to such an issue as climate change,

498
00:24:52,510 --> 00:24:56,110
you see that in a situation where you have very limited time

499
00:24:56,110 --> 00:24:57,470
and a big problem,

500
00:24:57,470 --> 00:25:01,200
and you really need to have the biggest team you can,

501
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,980
open source is like just the easiest and the most sustainable way to go.

502
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,760
The project Faircap started with very simple idea,

503
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,070
and that was to make a tiny filter

504
00:25:12,070 --> 00:25:13,920
that you can screw into a bottle,

505
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,850
and you can take water from a stream,

506
00:25:15,850 --> 00:25:17,600
from a lake, from the tap

507
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,510
and just drink straight from it.

508
00:25:19,510 --> 00:25:24,460
I think there's a big benefit from doing it open source.

509
00:25:24,460 --> 00:25:26,650
The information is open

510
00:25:26,650 --> 00:25:30,770
so that it's easier to understand how it works.

511
00:25:30,770 --> 00:25:34,050
I think that's empowering people,

512
00:25:34,050 --> 00:25:35,900
not just telling them,

513
00:25:35,900 --> 00:25:37,580
"Yeah, this cleans water and that's it."

514
00:25:37,580 --> 00:25:40,430
But, "This cleans water because we're using this,

515
00:25:40,430 --> 00:25:42,490
and maybe in the future it's going to be improved".

516
00:25:42,490 --> 00:25:45,980
The second aspect, I think, it's also an economic aspect,

517
00:25:45,980 --> 00:25:51,450
because by sharing this online or with different designers,

518
00:25:51,450 --> 00:25:53,130
a lot of people can collaborate

519
00:25:53,130 --> 00:25:55,930
from the scientific point of view, from the design point of view,

520
00:25:55,930 --> 00:25:57,830
to make it easier to use,

521
00:25:57,830 --> 00:25:59,530
to make it low cost to produce.

522
00:26:00,850 --> 00:26:03,070
It's not easy to talk about what you're doing

523
00:26:03,070 --> 00:26:05,390
when you work in open source.

524
00:26:05,390 --> 00:26:06,520
People don't understand,

525
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,970
people think it's, either they don't know what it is,

526
00:26:08,970 --> 00:26:12,450
or they think it's some kind of

527
00:26:12,450 --> 00:26:14,690
thing you can't make your living out of,

528
00:26:14,690 --> 00:26:18,650
or it's maybe a hobby for some of us.

529
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,580
The things that are happening are being shared laterally through networks,

530
00:26:23,580 --> 00:26:27,520
blogs, wikis, mostly online.

531
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,030
They go from community to community,

532
00:26:30,030 --> 00:26:33,380
but there's still a mass audience out there that doesn't get that.

533
00:26:33,380 --> 00:26:36,250
I think one of the reasons we don't see it

534
00:26:36,250 --> 00:26:38,850
is because we are addicted to bigness:

535
00:26:38,850 --> 00:26:42,560
big companies, multinationals,

536
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,710
and what's happening now is distribution.

537
00:26:45,710 --> 00:26:49,240
It's lots of small projects coalescing together.

538
00:26:50,530 --> 00:26:52,930
I think there's a lot more of us out there

539
00:26:52,930 --> 00:26:54,760
than we know

540
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,010
if we can start connecting up

541
00:26:56,010 --> 00:26:57,770
some of these networks and communities

542
00:26:57,770 --> 00:27:01,020
who want to work in this quite new way

543
00:27:01,020 --> 00:27:03,900
that's based in positive social values,

544
00:27:03,900 --> 00:27:06,210
egalitarianism, entrepreneurialism,

545
00:27:06,210 --> 00:27:08,630
autonomy, collaboration,

546
00:27:08,630 --> 00:27:11,610
it's going to be super powerful and exciting

547
00:27:11,610 --> 00:27:13,940
and I think the movement is already global

548
00:27:13,940 --> 00:27:16,180
and we just need to find each other.

549
00:27:19,100 --> 00:27:22,390
At POC21 the projects are super diverse.

550
00:27:22,390 --> 00:27:24,430
They are all happening at different stages of development

551
00:27:24,430 --> 00:27:26,420
but when I have gone and talked with them,

552
00:27:26,420 --> 00:27:28,320
the thing that has been really interesting to me

553
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,170
is this combination of

554
00:27:30,170 --> 00:27:32,290
I have this kernel of an idea

555
00:27:32,290 --> 00:27:33,880
but what I really want

556
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,420
is for this broader community to build off of it.

557
00:27:36,550 --> 00:27:38,410
SunZilla is designed to replace

558
00:27:38,410 --> 00:27:40,440
conventional diesel generators

559
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:41,810
in remote areas

560
00:27:41,810 --> 00:27:43,450
or outdoor events.

561
00:27:43,450 --> 00:27:45,250
We want to be more modular,

562
00:27:45,260 --> 00:27:48,280
so the battery is in a separate box

563
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,950
depending on your energy need,

564
00:27:50,950 --> 00:27:53,490
you have a bigger box with more solar panels,

565
00:27:53,490 --> 00:27:56,010
or a smaller box with less solar panels

566
00:27:56,010 --> 00:27:59,460
One module we'd like to be developed

567
00:27:59,460 --> 00:28:02,490
is a water purification module.

568
00:28:02,490 --> 00:28:04,250
All the plans are open,

569
00:28:04,250 --> 00:28:06,850
and you know exactly what you have to do

570
00:28:06,850 --> 00:28:08,840
to make a module which fits to our system.

571
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,390
and you can even adapt the code

572
00:28:10,390 --> 00:28:12,170
to make it perfect for your needs.

573
00:28:13,020 --> 00:28:14,840
That is effectively a platform

574
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,380
for other people to innovate on top of

575
00:28:17,380 --> 00:28:19,460
that’s really different

576
00:28:19,460 --> 00:28:21,690
to how industry thinks most of the time

577
00:28:21,690 --> 00:28:24,210
there’s a way of taking what they are doing

578
00:28:24,210 --> 00:28:25,760
and saying okay,

579
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,980
we want to see this spread

580
00:28:27,980 --> 00:28:33,260
and to see it spread we need to share our knowledge and share our insights

581
00:28:33,260 --> 00:28:37,840
and encourage and invite other people to innovate with us.

582
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:39,570
When we close those models up

583
00:28:39,570 --> 00:28:41,460
and we say 'oh, this is very protected' and everything

584
00:28:41,460 --> 00:28:43,270
it means that it doesn't scale

585
00:28:43,270 --> 00:28:45,680
but we are in a hurry, a serious hurry

586
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:50,140
we are in a life transforming hurry right now.

587
00:28:51,020 --> 00:28:52,810
It's easy to think sustainability is

588
00:28:52,810 --> 00:28:54,220
society's problem

589
00:28:54,220 --> 00:28:55,520
or someone else's problem,

590
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,600
but actually it's sort of all of us,

591
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,420
what we do day-to-day.

592
00:28:59,420 --> 00:29:03,230
We often think in terms of these 2050 or 2030 goals

593
00:29:03,500 --> 00:29:05,430
and that actually puts the problem in the future

594
00:29:05,430 --> 00:29:07,760
like, "we can keep living as we do now,

595
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,390
but by 2030 we'll have fixed it."

596
00:29:11,610 --> 00:29:16,530
Actually it's not these 2030 goals that matter,

597
00:29:16,530 --> 00:29:19,000
it's cumulative emissions.

598
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,100
In order to limit our chances of exceeding two degrees of warming,

599
00:29:23,100 --> 00:29:27,320
we need to reduce our carbon emissions by 40% by 2018,

600
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,040
70% by 2025,

601
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:31,950
90% by 2030,

602
00:29:31,950 --> 00:29:33,750
and 100% by 2035.

603
00:29:33,750 --> 00:29:36,720
To reach that kind of de-carbonization

604
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,260
in the energy sector,

605
00:29:39,260 --> 00:29:40,470
we obviously have to

606
00:29:40,470 --> 00:29:42,490
ramp up renewable energy.

607
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,200
In the last six years,

608
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,200
solar capacity worldwide grew

609
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,080
from about 17 gigawatts to 177 gigawatts

610
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:50,400
and wind doubled

611
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,610
from 120 to 318 gigawatts

612
00:29:53,820 --> 00:29:55,850
I’m interested in how do we connect

613
00:29:55,850 --> 00:29:57,770
to this big picture, to the energy transition,

614
00:29:57,770 --> 00:29:59,810
which is really what Open Energy Monitor is about,

615
00:29:59,810 --> 00:30:02,170
showing you how much energy you’re using

616
00:30:02,170 --> 00:30:06,300
and how much energy is coming from these different renewable energy sources.

617
00:30:07,090 --> 00:30:09,350
Once I did an energy audit on lighting

618
00:30:09,350 --> 00:30:10,470
it really surprised me, like

619
00:30:10,470 --> 00:30:11,960
"Wow, that's a lot of energy"

620
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:13,990
and people leave the lights on all the time,

621
00:30:13,990 --> 00:30:15,810
so it really impacted me

622
00:30:15,810 --> 00:30:17,900
when I did that and I had the knowledge,

623
00:30:17,900 --> 00:30:21,800
I go around now nowadays turning off the lights wherever.

624
00:30:22,190 --> 00:30:24,090
Now, with the water, I have the same thing

625
00:30:24,090 --> 00:30:25,060
like, again

626
00:30:25,060 --> 00:30:26,520
"Wow! That's a lot of energy!"

627
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,860
like, you can't have a solar photovoltaic shower.

628
00:30:29,860 --> 00:30:34,020
You'd need 10 square meters of solar panels to do it,

629
00:30:34,020 --> 00:30:36,180
in real time

630
00:30:36,180 --> 00:30:38,540
The other part is what often call

631
00:30:38,540 --> 00:30:41,220
"power down" or "energy efficiency"

632
00:30:41,220 --> 00:30:44,760
We can achieve huge reduction in energy demand,

633
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,640
almost 75% through

634
00:30:48,850 --> 00:30:52,170
electrification of transport, of heating

635
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,440
and better insulation and draft-proofing in buildings.

636
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,370
This is tricky, but it's also very, very simple.

637
00:30:59,970 --> 00:31:02,780
If we can decrease our consumption

638
00:31:03,070 --> 00:31:06,070
but maintain our quality of life,

639
00:31:06,230 --> 00:31:08,010
then that's a start

640
00:31:08,010 --> 00:31:09,230
Everyone will say,

641
00:31:09,230 --> 00:31:10,530
"oh, take shorter showers"

642
00:31:10,530 --> 00:31:11,830
or "take cold showers"

643
00:31:11,830 --> 00:31:12,650
but

644
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,270
I don't want to!

645
00:31:14,270 --> 00:31:15,810
you know? I'm used to this.

646
00:31:15,810 --> 00:31:17,190
and I've just made the tech

647
00:31:17,190 --> 00:31:19,350
so it's possible to do that.

648
00:31:20,100 --> 00:31:22,570
Here we have Showerloop, the prototype,

649
00:31:23,050 --> 00:31:25,030
it’s basically just a shower

650
00:31:25,460 --> 00:31:27,270
you can run in a loop.

651
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,590
You can use your hot water

652
00:31:29,590 --> 00:31:32,150
that you already got from the outside

653
00:31:32,150 --> 00:31:35,400
and cycle it as long as it stays hot

654
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,590
to save a lot of heat energy

655
00:31:37,590 --> 00:31:39,640
that’s the awesome part of it -

656
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:40,640
we’re not just saving water,

657
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,800
it’s really about energy.

658
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,990
Water comes from the bottom, the pump,

659
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,170
gets pumped through the filter,

660
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,540
comes up through the showerhead,

661
00:31:51,540 --> 00:31:53,850
and you can shower in a cycle.

662
00:31:53,850 --> 00:31:56,950
Instead of a normal shower using 100 liters of water,

663
00:31:56,950 --> 00:31:58,810
Showerloop only needs 10.

664
00:31:58,810 --> 00:32:01,040
Maybe it can have a larger impact

665
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,120
by changing people's mentality

666
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:04,820
you'd take a shower like that in the morning,

667
00:32:04,820 --> 00:32:06,680
and if you know how it works

668
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,520
maybe you start looking around, asking

669
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:13,030
"Hey, why doesn't that work the same way?"

670
00:32:16,860 --> 00:32:18,750
We are here with different projects,

671
00:32:18,750 --> 00:32:20,740
working around energy

672
00:32:20,740 --> 00:32:23,520
or using energy

673
00:32:23,690 --> 00:32:25,890
we don’t want to work on different islands

674
00:32:25,890 --> 00:32:28,720
and just ignore each other

675
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,230
so here at POC we have the opportunity to work together

676
00:32:32,230 --> 00:32:33,980
so let’s work together

677
00:32:33,980 --> 00:32:37,910
and make one interconnected energy system

678
00:32:37,910 --> 00:32:39,930
showing that we can be autonomous

679
00:32:39,930 --> 00:32:42,980
with only renewable energy supply.

680
00:32:45,630 --> 00:32:51,330
Week 3: from concepts to action

681
00:32:51,790 --> 00:32:53,440
So, what should do first?

682
00:32:54,990 --> 00:32:55,900
The exhibition.

683
00:32:55,900 --> 00:32:56,580
yeah, OK,

684
00:32:56,580 --> 00:32:58,450
let's talk about the exhibition

685
00:32:58,450 --> 00:33:01,650
At the end of the camp, the castle grounds will be opened to the public for the POC21 exhibition

686
00:33:01,650 --> 00:33:03,880
I can see several issues that we have to decide on

687
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:08,520
POC21 is the same as all the 12 projects

688
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:09,520
we should run through the process

689
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,150
that we try to get our projects through

690
00:33:12,150 --> 00:33:14,250
what is our vision?

691
00:33:14,630 --> 00:33:17,070
and how are we going to show our vision?

692
00:33:17,620 --> 00:33:22,220
I think the overall atmosphere should be that it can be believed

693
00:33:22,220 --> 00:33:24,660
as a 'proof of concept'

694
00:33:25,310 --> 00:33:27,080
like an atmospheric puzzle

695
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:28,930
where when you leave, you understand

696
00:33:28,930 --> 00:33:32,030
ok actually, there could be a whole lifestyle around this

697
00:33:32,030 --> 00:33:34,990
I saw so many things, many of them not perfect

698
00:33:34,990 --> 00:33:36,450
but from the feeling,

699
00:33:36,450 --> 00:33:41,130
ok something's developing into a complete picture

700
00:33:42,190 --> 00:33:45,970
I think the projects are making a lot of progress

701
00:33:46,690 --> 00:33:51,010
right now, what we need to be careful about is to meet the schedule

702
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,930
and move from divergence

703
00:33:55,020 --> 00:33:57,680
and a lot of new concepts for the projects

704
00:33:57,810 --> 00:34:00,810
to converging into the final prototypes and the exhibition

705
00:34:00,810 --> 00:34:05,410
it’s going to be the main focus and challenge for the remaining days.

706
00:34:08,250 --> 00:34:11,730
People are really starting to get physical

707
00:34:12,010 --> 00:34:14,560
so they come from out of their concepts and papers

708
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,719
and some people, like the Bicitractor guys,

709
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,440
you can hardly get them out of the Factory

710
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,030
because they’re welding and sawing, all the day

711
00:34:24,409 --> 00:34:26,739
The Bicitractor is a tool

712
00:34:27,405 --> 00:34:30,712
for small-to-medium fruit & vegetable producers

713
00:34:32,252 --> 00:34:35,210
to perform small tasks

714
00:34:37,250 --> 00:34:42,389
like weeding, hoeing, opening a line, or sowing seeds

715
00:34:44,370 --> 00:34:48,159
We've spent two weeks working in the Factory

716
00:34:48,699 --> 00:34:50,420
8, 10 hours a day

717
00:34:50,420 --> 00:34:52,670
and that's what you see here

718
00:34:52,670 --> 00:34:54,600
that's the main frame

719
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,760
this part here

720
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,500
the big rectangle

721
00:34:59,010 --> 00:34:59,920
the seat

722
00:34:59,920 --> 00:35:01,630
the pedalling station

723
00:35:01,630 --> 00:35:03,130
and the transmission axis

724
00:35:03,130 --> 00:35:05,210
we're working on the steering right now

725
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,670
I'm here with the $30 wind turbine project,

726
00:35:09,490 --> 00:35:11,790
which is a vertical access turbine

727
00:35:11,790 --> 00:35:13,810
that you can make for yourself

728
00:35:13,810 --> 00:35:16,300
with basic tools and skills

729
00:35:16,300 --> 00:35:18,920
using recycled materials

730
00:35:19,220 --> 00:35:21,730
it basically puts the ability to generate power

731
00:35:21,730 --> 00:35:23,250
in people's hands

732
00:35:23,250 --> 00:35:24,600
and everyone needs it!

733
00:35:25,220 --> 00:35:27,710
This is actually the first one I've made myself

734
00:35:27,710 --> 00:35:32,470
since the first prototypes back in 2013

735
00:35:32,470 --> 00:35:35,800
since then it's just been watching other people make them

736
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:37,040
in the workshops.

737
00:35:37,340 --> 00:35:40,910
So these bottom three vanes were made by hand

738
00:35:41,180 --> 00:35:43,750
in 3 and a half hours

739
00:35:43,890 --> 00:35:46,260
these top ones were done by CNC machine,

740
00:35:46,260 --> 00:35:50,610
the first ones to have been done with the machine

741
00:35:51,140 --> 00:35:54,390
and they were printed in a couple of minutes each

742
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,240
and then assembled in 90 minutes.

743
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,780
So the full 6-vane version,

744
00:36:00,240 --> 00:36:02,690
you could do the whole thing in 4 hours.

745
00:36:25,210 --> 00:36:29,060
Instead of just collecting the sun like flat plate collectors

746
00:36:29,060 --> 00:36:32,010
which produce warm water

747
00:36:32,010 --> 00:36:34,040
domestic hot water for example

748
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,210
if we want to have energy at higher temperature

749
00:36:37,210 --> 00:36:40,080
then you need to concentrate the light.

750
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,430
We use mirrors that reflect the light

751
00:36:42,430 --> 00:36:43,880
on a pipe

752
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,010
in which water flows

753
00:36:45,010 --> 00:36:47,020
transforming into steam

754
00:36:47,020 --> 00:36:49,720
We can use the steam for the various uses

755
00:36:49,720 --> 00:36:51,010
like food processing,

756
00:36:51,010 --> 00:36:53,040
sterilizing, cooking.

757
00:36:53,810 --> 00:36:57,480
The purpose of this electronics & software

758
00:36:58,270 --> 00:37:00,950
is to keep the concentrated sun

759
00:37:00,950 --> 00:37:03,070
on the main receptor

760
00:37:03,070 --> 00:37:06,170
While the sun moves in the sky

761
00:37:06,170 --> 00:37:09,570
the photosensor will give a signal to the Arduino board

762
00:37:09,770 --> 00:37:13,010
to move every single mirror into position.

763
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,480
The Vélo M2 project is a multi-modular platform

764
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:19,830
where we use one bike

765
00:37:19,830 --> 00:37:22,360
and we put different modules on it

766
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,040
It's to try new experiments

767
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,610
around renewable energy and bikes

768
00:37:28,610 --> 00:37:30,110
in any environment.

769
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:35,730
Our energy module will be charged either by pedal power

770
00:37:36,060 --> 00:37:39,710
or either with other renewable energy sources

771
00:37:39,710 --> 00:37:43,080
so that we are totally independent of fossil fuel.

772
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,330
The bike has a free-wheel system

773
00:37:52,330 --> 00:37:55,300
which prevents generaration of electricity

774
00:37:55,300 --> 00:37:58,220
so Milena blocked the free-wheel system

775
00:37:59,010 --> 00:38:02,440
now we pedal backwards and we generate electricity.

776
00:38:03,190 --> 00:38:06,730
This is just a test, to see if everything could work

777
00:38:06,980 --> 00:38:08,060
Let’s try it!

778
00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:11,530
Can you see if everything is set as we did before?

779
00:38:11,530 --> 00:38:12,250
Yeah

780
00:38:12,250 --> 00:38:14,640
We are generating 0.05 amps...

781
00:38:15,180 --> 00:38:16,500
Now it should work

782
00:38:16,500 --> 00:38:17,660
Is this normal?

783
00:38:17,660 --> 00:38:18,760
No...

784
00:38:19,430 --> 00:38:20,900
probably not.

785
00:38:21,380 --> 00:38:24,890
give it a couple of turns

786
00:38:24,890 --> 00:38:27,960
yeah but it derails each time

787
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:28,740
yeah

788
00:38:32,100 --> 00:38:36,270
This is one of the practical problems that are slowing us down.

789
00:38:36,730 --> 00:38:39,520
Now that the electrical system is running

790
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,550
the mechanical system is not working anymore.

791
00:38:42,550 --> 00:38:45,810
I think that we are totally fucking the derailleur….

792
00:38:48,620 --> 00:38:52,880
We’re gonna go down to the construction side of the dome,

793
00:38:54,250 --> 00:38:57,810
which is a wooden pavillion

794
00:38:57,810 --> 00:38:59,370
with an inner tent

795
00:38:59,370 --> 00:39:01,680
that will host the exhibition

796
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,730
for the 18th to the 20th of September.

797
00:39:12,860 --> 00:39:16,450
The dome is a very lightweight structure

798
00:39:16,450 --> 00:39:18,580
for the space it gives

799
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:24,080
it’s also one the major DIY structures that is done in the world

800
00:39:24,270 --> 00:39:27,680
actually I guess it’s the biggest wooden dome in Europe

801
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:29,610
we thought a lot about

802
00:39:29,610 --> 00:39:32,540
how to transfer everything that’s happened at POC

803
00:39:32,540 --> 00:39:34,580
the ideas, what’s happened here,

804
00:39:34,580 --> 00:39:37,140
and the collaborative process, into an exhibition

805
00:39:37,310 --> 00:39:39,050
it’s rather complicated

806
00:39:39,050 --> 00:39:42,050
to get that complex story across

807
00:39:42,050 --> 00:39:46,490
to people that have never really heard of open source, co-living

808
00:39:46,490 --> 00:39:48,490
or collaborative processes.

809
00:39:48,490 --> 00:39:51,690
There's also the idea that

810
00:39:51,690 --> 00:39:54,690
this is just an example for a better world

811
00:39:54,690 --> 00:39:57,610
it's part of a whole ecosphere of open source projects

812
00:40:23,610 --> 00:40:27,530
reinforcements arrive to help in the final sprint towards the exhibition

813
00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:31,640
it's one thing when you see it from outside, on your computer

814
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:35,730
you can sense that there's a sort of chaos here

815
00:40:35,730 --> 00:40:39,550
but when you arrive here, you really feel it

816
00:40:39,670 --> 00:40:40,850
100 percent!

817
00:41:01,580 --> 00:41:02,580
so we noticed that

818
00:41:02,580 --> 00:41:05,030
being in such a busy work environment

819
00:41:05,030 --> 00:41:10,280
sometimes it’s hard to find quiet and focus

820
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,370
the solution to this was to make a bunch of these crowns

821
00:41:13,370 --> 00:41:16,290
the idea is that you can put one of these on,

822
00:41:16,290 --> 00:41:20,550
and people know that you're trying to focus or want some quiet time alone

823
00:41:50,850 --> 00:41:53,060
I guess we will have a floating exhibition!

824
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,470
We still need to build up the whole exhibition structure,

825
00:42:01,490 --> 00:42:06,820
so that’s 80 cubes that we still need to assemble and stack

826
00:42:07,500 --> 00:42:10,260
and we have to try and fit it in here.

827
00:42:13,210 --> 00:42:16,270
the dome is actually smaller than we hoped

828
00:42:16,270 --> 00:42:17,410
so we lost some space

829
00:42:17,410 --> 00:42:19,030
and it’s already crowded

830
00:42:19,030 --> 00:42:22,820
so the main task will be trying to fit it into the space

831
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:26,740
and as well finding a way that it all works out

832
00:42:26,740 --> 00:42:30,720
even though we are like, one week behind

833
00:42:40,460 --> 00:42:43,040
even though it seems like Mission Impossible,

834
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:44,070
I’m still optimistic

835
00:42:44,070 --> 00:42:45,420
I don’t know why,

836
00:42:45,420 --> 00:42:47,290
but I’m still smiling

837
00:42:47,290 --> 00:42:49,650
and looking forward to the next phase.

838
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,750
Week 5: The final sprint

839
00:43:06,720 --> 00:43:09,790
We plan to be ready in two days

840
00:43:13,770 --> 00:43:18,090
It’s kind of the last stuff we have to do

841
00:43:18,450 --> 00:43:19,850
in terms of construction

842
00:43:19,850 --> 00:43:26,730
after that we have to bring the soil and humus etc

843
00:43:26,730 --> 00:43:28,310
to make the beds,

844
00:43:28,310 --> 00:43:31,110
but all the structure will be done.

845
00:43:35,580 --> 00:43:38,300
This is the preservation module

846
00:43:38,900 --> 00:43:43,110
it’s two ceramic pots with wet sand inside

847
00:43:43,790 --> 00:43:47,120
the more heat you have in the room,

848
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,480
the colder it will be in the pot

849
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,400
so basically for an apartment,

850
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,590
you’re gonna have maybe 8-10 degrees.

851
00:43:55,590 --> 00:43:59,320
It’s an alternative way to preserve fruits and vegetables.

852
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,370
It’s going super good.

853
00:44:01,370 --> 00:44:03,430
We have the start of the bioponic system

854
00:44:03,690 --> 00:44:09,060
and Valentin is working on the mechanical part

855
00:44:09,060 --> 00:44:13,670
all the really heavy parts of the mechanical system

856
00:44:13,670 --> 00:44:16,220
are already fixed.

857
00:44:16,220 --> 00:44:18,470
and it’s only Monday!

858
00:44:18,470 --> 00:44:19,720
unbelievable.

859
00:44:41,130 --> 00:44:43,830
As everything is ramped up for the final exhibition,

860
00:44:43,850 --> 00:44:45,790
everyone's in crunch phase,

861
00:44:45,790 --> 00:44:48,850
there's a definite need for the community

862
00:44:48,850 --> 00:44:50,380
to pull together -

863
00:44:50,380 --> 00:44:52,830
really start getting everything taken care of

864
00:44:52,830 --> 00:44:54,160
and working together.

865
00:45:04,340 --> 00:45:06,940
I’m the intern here,

866
00:45:06,940 --> 00:45:09,570
I'm learning how to use the drilling machine

867
00:45:09,570 --> 00:45:11,530
and I have no idea how I’m doing!

868
00:45:11,530 --> 00:45:13,210
he’s willing to learn,

869
00:45:14,850 --> 00:45:16,230
he’s a good student!

870
00:45:31,630 --> 00:45:35,660
So people will see your main profile board on this one

871
00:45:35,660 --> 00:45:37,080
and your name up there -

872
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:38,310
and the bike will be here.

873
00:46:14,580 --> 00:46:17,970
We're building a tower, basically.

874
00:46:17,970 --> 00:46:19,560
Because the steel pole

875
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,750
which was meant to be holding the turbines

876
00:46:21,750 --> 00:46:24,970
pretty much bent in half while we were trying to hoist the thing up.

877
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,730
So we're going a lot more robust,

878
00:46:26,730 --> 00:46:28,800
which unfortunately means

879
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,200
doing it now, on the last night.

880
00:46:58,290 --> 00:46:59,970
It's pretty late, now.

881
00:46:59,970 --> 00:47:01,710
It's the second night

882
00:47:01,710 --> 00:47:03,250
we're getting there.

883
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,480
We disassembled everything

884
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:08,700
and are reassembling the whole thing.

885
00:47:08,700 --> 00:47:12,300
Every team has disassembled and reassembled their thing.

886
00:47:12,300 --> 00:47:13,220
and what's your story?

887
00:47:13,220 --> 00:47:15,470
why did we have to rebuild?

888
00:47:16,730 --> 00:47:18,440
because...

889
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:19,820
I broke...

890
00:47:19,820 --> 00:47:22,750
the door,

891
00:47:22,750 --> 00:47:24,580
the wall, the back wall

892
00:47:24,580 --> 00:47:26,710
where all the stuff was supposed to go

893
00:47:26,710 --> 00:47:28,750
which was totally my fault

894
00:47:28,750 --> 00:47:29,900
because I...

895
00:47:29,900 --> 00:47:31,320
I drilled into glass...

896
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,130
and you can't drill into glass.

897
00:47:33,130 --> 00:47:36,010
The best part is now we can choose the place

898
00:47:36,010 --> 00:47:37,190
where we put our stuff

899
00:47:37,190 --> 00:47:38,510
but it needs time,

900
00:47:38,510 --> 00:47:41,020
and we don't have that much time!

901
00:48:27,430 --> 00:48:28,950
We feel super tired.

902
00:48:30,130 --> 00:48:32,000
But...

903
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:34,340
it's exciting, because we finished.

904
00:48:35,260 --> 00:48:36,570
almost done.

905
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:38,700
The last three days..?

906
00:48:40,620 --> 00:48:42,220
It was great!

907
00:48:42,220 --> 00:48:43,770
getting something done

908
00:48:43,770 --> 00:48:47,990
that was never expected to be done

909
00:48:47,990 --> 00:48:50,900
But here we are, here it is, yay!

910
00:48:55,750 --> 00:48:57,450
Yeah! We made it!

911
00:48:59,180 --> 00:49:01,310
I also feel kind of proud

912
00:49:01,310 --> 00:49:04,070
that we made it in such a short amount of time

913
00:49:05,130 --> 00:49:07,460
it’s like - how do you say?

914
00:49:07,460 --> 00:49:10,060
"made with a hot needle"

915
00:49:10,540 --> 00:49:11,960
but I think it works.

916
00:49:12,240 --> 00:49:14,950
2 minutes before the exhibiotn opening...

917
00:49:23,890 --> 00:49:26,490
Welcome again, we're about to show you the exhibition

918
00:49:28,290 --> 00:49:31,130
I’m excited that you’re here, that you're interested

919
00:49:31,130 --> 00:49:32,660
and we can show you what we did

920
00:49:32,660 --> 00:49:34,200
over the last weeks.

921
00:50:11,870 --> 00:50:15,450
We already are 400 people this afternoon,

922
00:50:15,450 --> 00:50:17,480
and 300 this morning

923
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:19,460
So many people came back and say

924
00:50:19,460 --> 00:50:23,380
“it was super cool, I discovered lots of things.”

925
00:50:23,750 --> 00:50:27,170
I really hope that the people who come here

926
00:50:27,170 --> 00:50:30,060
and walk through the exhibition

927
00:50:30,060 --> 00:50:34,910
really leave being curious about what happened here

928
00:50:34,910 --> 00:50:37,460
and wanting to become part of this.

929
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:39,010
It's hard to predict

930
00:50:39,010 --> 00:50:41,450
what exactly is going to come out of POC21

931
00:50:41,450 --> 00:50:44,070
I know that the story has really gotten out there.

932
00:50:44,070 --> 00:50:45,290
The media has been interested

933
00:50:45,290 --> 00:50:47,050
and people outside have been interested.

934
00:50:47,050 --> 00:50:49,450
This whole open source technology,

935
00:50:49,450 --> 00:50:52,290
it can be a technical discussion

936
00:50:52,290 --> 00:50:55,460
or people might not see its relationships with themselves.

937
00:50:55,460 --> 00:51:00,600
I think it's been a way in for people to think about:

938
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:03,590
"How could we maybe develop products differently?

939
00:51:03,590 --> 00:51:05,410
How can we collaborate differently?

940
00:51:05,410 --> 00:51:07,300
Maybe it's not just companies.

941
00:51:07,300 --> 00:51:10,370
Maybe it's more like movements, like networks"

942
00:51:10,690 --> 00:51:13,570
I think this has been a great pathway in

943
00:51:13,570 --> 00:51:16,350
for people to start thinking about these deeper issues.

944
00:51:21,905 --> 00:51:24,025
to develop in open source

945
00:51:24,025 --> 00:51:26,365
means to provide a base

946
00:51:26,365 --> 00:51:28,705
so that it can grow more easily

947
00:51:28,705 --> 00:51:30,035
you launch an idea

948
00:51:30,035 --> 00:51:32,210
and people can adapt & replicate it

949
00:51:32,210 --> 00:51:35,130
improve it and create new applications for it

950
00:51:35,210 --> 00:51:39,360
For us, and I think for everybody that came here

951
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,560
the next stop is COP21

952
00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:43,480
Then from there,

953
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:48,530
we will see if we really did communicate well,

954
00:51:48,530 --> 00:51:54,090
if we did touch the public, and if we were taken seriously.

955
00:51:56,290 --> 00:51:59,160
One of the things I mention in my own lectures

956
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:00,880
is the 'high road' and the 'low road'

957
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:06,340
The high road is: we convince the dominant system

958
00:52:06,340 --> 00:52:09,820
to do some good things that reform itself

959
00:52:09,820 --> 00:52:13,350
so that the transition will be smooth

960
00:52:13,830 --> 00:52:15,150
if they don't do it...

961
00:52:15,150 --> 00:52:17,440
the transition will be hard

962
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,230
but there will still be a transition

963
00:52:22,570 --> 00:52:24,930
We look at history

964
00:52:24,930 --> 00:52:26,650
It's not always easy

965
00:52:26,650 --> 00:52:28,140
We see, at the end of the Roman Empire,

966
00:52:28,140 --> 00:52:30,980
five centuries of chaos,

967
00:52:30,980 --> 00:52:33,620
no cities, and no roads

968
00:52:33,620 --> 00:52:34,820
if we do this today,

969
00:52:34,820 --> 00:52:36,690
we will have billions of people dying

970
00:52:36,690 --> 00:52:39,470
so I think is really

971
00:52:39,470 --> 00:52:41,870
why POC21 is important

972
00:52:41,870 --> 00:52:44,840
because it sends the message to the powers that says

973
00:52:46,450 --> 00:52:47,590
"There's a solution here.

974
00:52:47,590 --> 00:52:48,850
Help us.

975
00:52:49,010 --> 00:52:50,550
If you don't help us,

976
00:52:50,890 --> 00:52:52,890
it's going to be bad for everyone."

977
00:53:13,580 --> 00:53:15,870
the wate will be filtered through the process

978
00:53:15,870 --> 00:53:18,270
and go back clean to the fish tank

979
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:19,750
it is a closed circle

980
00:53:19,750 --> 00:53:21,030
we use practically no water

981
00:53:21,030 --> 00:53:24,030
the only water lost is through evaporation

982
00:53:27,740 --> 00:53:29,360
here it should be understood

983
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:30,780
that this is about decentralization

984
00:53:31,140 --> 00:53:32,865
for water, for energy,

985
00:53:32,865 --> 00:53:34,595
for access to food

986
00:53:40,490 --> 00:53:44,450
So right now, the SunZilla is powering

987
00:53:44,450 --> 00:53:46,220
the outer circle of the exhibition

988
00:53:46,330 --> 00:53:47,630
there are lights,

989
00:53:47,630 --> 00:53:50,360
but there are also computers and monitors

990
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,020
and sometimes the velo m2 is charging their batteries

991
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,600
and there's a pump for the Showerloop.

992
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:58,010
So we're waiting for SolarOSE

993
00:53:58,010 --> 00:53:59,040
to get off their butts

994
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:00,780
and make some hot water for me

995
00:54:00,780 --> 00:54:02,670
that's all I've ever wanted!

996
00:54:02,670 --> 00:54:05,770
a carbon neutral shower.

997
00:54:19,590 --> 00:54:22,190
I always say that it's not for sale,

998
00:54:22,190 --> 00:54:23,670
but we provide workshops so they can build it themselves.

999
00:54:23,670 --> 00:54:27,140
Then we explain why,

1000
00:54:27,140 --> 00:54:29,810
because people have to build their own tools

1001
00:54:30,010 --> 00:54:31,010
and adapt it to their special needs

1002
00:54:31,010 --> 00:54:33,030
and then, they say

1003
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:39,870
'yeah, you're right, go on, don't give up'.

1004
00:54:39,870 --> 00:54:41,960
POC21 was for me kind of a forced introspection,

1005
00:54:43,090 --> 00:54:45,350
that is very positive in a way,

1006
00:54:45,350 --> 00:54:48,260
I think it kind of liberated me

1007
00:54:48,260 --> 00:54:50,170
and made something more clear

1008
00:54:50,170 --> 00:54:52,550
than it was before I arrived

1009
00:54:53,310 --> 00:54:57,680
it was a very strong personal experience

1010
00:54:57,680 --> 00:54:59,960
And yeah, many links to maintain and nurture over the next few years.

1011
00:55:02,540 --> 00:55:06,580
I am hoping that this is going to strengthen me, and ...

1012
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:12,410
I’m hoping I’ll be able to make this seed grow

1013
00:55:12,410 --> 00:55:15,150
and do something going back where I live

1014
00:55:15,150 --> 00:55:17,070
with people I’m around

1015
00:55:18,070 --> 00:55:19,670
Not necessarily reproduce it,

1016
00:55:19,670 --> 00:55:22,300
but take some from it and develop on it.

1017
00:55:26,510 --> 00:55:30,060
It was pretty exhausting

1018
00:55:30,060 --> 00:55:32,180
and very...

1019
00:55:34,380 --> 00:55:35,230
special

1020
00:55:35,230 --> 00:55:37,640
I never experienced something like this before.

1021
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:39,720
For me it’s all about the community

1022
00:55:39,720 --> 00:55:42,070
meeting all these great people

1023
00:55:42,070 --> 00:55:46,710
having an understanding about how a community could work

1024
00:55:47,660 --> 00:55:50,080
practicing democracy,

1025
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:52,750
practicing living together

1026
00:55:55,470 --> 00:55:59,480
For me... I want to free myself - and others

1027
00:56:01,580 --> 00:56:05,290
and here I got the courage to do it,

1028
00:56:05,290 --> 00:56:07,650
to really take the step and

1029
00:56:09,230 --> 00:56:10,560
do something

1030
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:14,710
and not be afraid of not having so much money.

1031
00:56:18,490 --> 00:56:20,640
After a day like this,

1032
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:24,510
you forget all the work

1033
00:56:24,510 --> 00:56:27,450
and the difficulties and the issues...

1034
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,190
and I think,

1035
00:56:30,190 --> 00:56:33,970
there weren’t so many, in the end.

1036
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:39,010
The last week was really exhausting,

1037
00:56:39,010 --> 00:56:40,010
I didn’t sleep so much,

1038
00:56:40,010 --> 00:56:41,810
but the last days

1039
00:56:42,260 --> 00:56:44,710
proved to me it was necessary

1040
00:56:44,710 --> 00:56:46,620
that it was really useful to do that,

1041
00:56:46,620 --> 00:56:48,410
to not sleep

1042
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,500
The two days of exhibition,

1043
00:56:51,500 --> 00:56:52,970
I mean, it was perfect

1044
00:56:52,970 --> 00:56:55,030
we met so many nice people

1045
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:58,790
and even if there was not words

1046
00:56:58,790 --> 00:57:00,230
just smiles and faces,

1047
00:57:00,230 --> 00:57:02,630
seeing our project and the other projects

1048
00:57:02,630 --> 00:57:03,660
People were like,

1049
00:57:03,660 --> 00:57:06,460
‘yes, another society is possible, this is possible’

1050
00:57:06,460 --> 00:57:09,630
'we’re happy to be here, we’re happy to see you’

1051
00:57:09,630 --> 00:57:12,770
and they said ‘thank you, thank you, thank you so much,’

1052
00:57:12,770 --> 00:57:13,960
and we were like

1053
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:16,150
‘thanks for YOU to come and visit us!’

1054
00:57:16,460 --> 00:57:17,570
These two days,

1055
00:57:18,060 --> 00:57:20,230
I never felt like that before in my life.

1056
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:21,760
I’m 25 years old,

1057
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:24,140
I feel like I’m responsible for something,

1058
00:57:24,140 --> 00:57:26,100
I feel like I’m useful with my friends

1059
00:57:26,100 --> 00:57:28,140
and with the whole community of POC21

1060
00:57:29,870 --> 00:57:31,140
without being pretentious,

1061
00:57:31,140 --> 00:57:32,470
I think we can be proud of ourselves

1062
00:57:32,470 --> 00:57:35,170
and the last two days showed that

1063
00:57:35,170 --> 00:57:37,170
we are really, really, really happy.

1064
00:57:49,140 --> 00:57:54,220
Made with Free/Libre Open Source Software & built on Free Culture

1065
00:58:35,190 --> 00:58:36,390
is this for my Mom?

1066
00:58:36,390 --> 00:58:38,350
Hi Mom! how's it going?
