WEBVTT 00:00:00.540 --> 00:00:01.540 this December 00:00:01.540 --> 00:00:02.540 diplomats from around the world 00:00:02.540 --> 00:00:03.890 meet once again 00:00:03.890 --> 00:00:04.640 to sit 00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:05.270 and talk 00:00:05.270 --> 00:00:07.550 about climate change 00:00:07.550 --> 00:00:10.660 But 20 years of UN climate summit and talkings 00:00:10.780 --> 00:00:13.590 haven’t stopped CO2 levels from rising 00:00:13.830 --> 00:00:15.890 Instead, global emissions have doubled 00:00:15.930 --> 00:00:18.930 since the first since the first UN climate meeting in 1995 00:00:19.780 --> 00:00:22.950 While our rainforests die and the Arctic ice melts 00:00:22.970 --> 00:00:26.020 our politicians prepare for yet another talk 00:00:26.020 --> 00:00:28.090 this December in Paris 00:00:28.750 --> 00:00:30.610 So we came up with a different idea 00:00:31.660 --> 00:00:33.530 We call it POC21 00:00:33.530 --> 00:00:36.060 A proof of concept that the future we need 00:00:36.060 --> 00:00:38.340 can be built with our own hands 00:01:02.550 --> 00:01:04.379 POC21 brings together 12 sustainable, 00:01:04.379 --> 00:01:07.050 open source hardware projects 00:01:12.010 --> 00:01:13.950 for 5 weeks of colaboration, 00:01:13.950 --> 00:01:16.470 co-living and development 00:01:21.490 --> 00:01:23.690 to build the tools we need 00:01:23.690 --> 00:01:25.730 for the world we want 00:01:32.290 --> 00:01:34.190 We see a lot of potential 00:01:34.190 --> 00:01:37.000 and creativity of innovators, 'makers' 00:01:37.240 --> 00:01:39.940 who build sustainable products and solutions 00:01:40.360 --> 00:01:44.450 but we think that right now they maybe lack some basic 00:01:45.190 --> 00:01:47.180 design support, communication support, 00:01:47.180 --> 00:01:48.580 tech support, 00:01:48.580 --> 00:01:51.350 a different set of skills or tools 00:01:51.380 --> 00:01:57.220 that can help bring them to the next level and possibly to scale. 00:01:57.500 --> 00:01:59.530 12 developing projects were selected 00:01:59.530 --> 00:02:01.660 to take part in POC21 00:02:01.670 --> 00:02:05.100 each aims to combat or adapt to climate change - 00:02:05.150 --> 00:02:08.020 with access to energy, food, livelihood or sanitation 00:02:08.020 --> 00:02:11.020 all are open source - anyone can study, build upon 00:02:11.210 --> 00:02:14.210 or help improve them, even you 00:02:17.310 --> 00:02:19.900 Low-Cost 3D-printed Water Filter 00:02:22.310 --> 00:02:24.640 DIY Resilient Energy 00:02:27.180 --> 00:02:29.760 Modern Lo-Tech Living Kitchen 00:02:32.870 --> 00:02:35.510 Automated Permaculture Greenhouse 00:02:38.060 --> 00:02:40.850 Bio-inspired Energy-Saving kettle 00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:46.360 Portable Solar Generator 00:02:48.160 --> 00:02:51.210 Understanding Energy Use & Generation 00:02:53.480 --> 00:02:56.220 Solar Concentrator 00:02:58.510 --> 00:03:01.610 Mobile Energy Modules 00:03:03.850 --> 00:03:06.500 Energy-Saving Circular Shower 00:03:09.260 --> 00:03:11.480 Urban Agriculture Kits 00:03:14.270 --> 00:03:16.860 Fossil-Free Farming 00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:18.200 WEEK ZERO: SETUP 00:03:18.200 --> 00:03:20.480 50 team members, participants and volunteers 00:03:20.490 --> 00:03:22.090 arrive early to help prepare the camp 00:03:24.930 --> 00:03:27.020 We didn't know what we were getting into. 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. 00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:41.830 In fact the Chateau is not used 00:03:41.830 --> 00:03:45.150 so we cleaned everything we put electricity everywhere 00:03:45.790 --> 00:03:47.960 we put smoke detectors in each room, mattresses everywhere… 00:03:50.850 --> 00:03:54.390 Basically we are building a structure of 30 tents 00:03:55.250 --> 00:03:57.340 It takes around half an hour if you’re used to doing it 00:03:57.350 --> 00:04:00.270 At the beginning it was like 2 hours. 00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:05.860 Don’t be fooled by my pants 00:04:05.910 --> 00:04:07.450 I know what I’m doing 00:04:11.990 --> 00:04:14.190 OK, my pants may be right then 00:04:20.190 --> 00:04:23.500 It was a little bit crazy, everything had been brought from outside 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 00:04:29.640 --> 00:04:31.060 we brought all the cables, all the electricity from outside. 00:04:32.660 --> 00:04:36.280 We brought also all the stuff for the kitchen : fridge, oven, etc… 00:04:40.730 --> 00:04:41.700 Happy? 00:04:42.340 --> 00:04:46.720 Yes, we still need some showers, some signage, 00:04:47.300 --> 00:04:55.750 wifi, electricity, and some desks to work on. 00:04:56.510 --> 00:04:59.260 It’s going well. Oh, and the kitchen too. 00:05:01.820 --> 00:05:03.890 The setup week was really extreme 00:05:03.890 --> 00:05:08.500 we had really a lot of things to do, we were running everywhere 00:05:08.500 --> 00:05:12.500 the challenge was to get down, breathe, 00:05:12.660 --> 00:05:18.630 and be comfortable with the people who were coming 00:05:18.630 --> 00:05:20.880 because it was really stressful 00:05:20.880 --> 00:05:25.250 and we didn’t want to give that kind of stress to the participants. 00:05:49.810 --> 00:05:52.300 I had no idea what was awaiting me 00:05:52.330 --> 00:05:54.700 it was something I've never done 00:05:55.050 --> 00:06:00.270 it was like before the first day at school in my life. 00:06:12.420 --> 00:06:14.050 it's pretty impressive, man! 00:06:24.400 --> 00:06:26.870 so we will just do a short walk and show you the area. 00:06:43.980 --> 00:06:47.320 actually, the idea for POC21 is the idea for Open State. 00:06:49.030 --> 00:06:51.160 The starting point for Open State 00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:54.880 which is the Berlin part of the POC team 00:06:54.880 --> 00:06:58.120 was with two friends and colleagues, 00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:00.560 Dominik and Simon. 00:07:00.660 --> 00:07:03.720 At some point we met on the River Spree in Berlin 00:07:03.770 --> 00:07:07.290 and thought about what is actually the impact we can have 00:07:07.300 --> 00:07:10.300 on that topic of climate change and sustainability 00:07:10.350 --> 00:07:12.670 in this way too short lifetime. 00:07:13.100 --> 00:07:15.480 The climate crisis is kind of like 00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:18.480 this tsunami that you see on the horizon 00:07:19.140 --> 00:07:23.030 You're still kind of laying at the beach, enjoying your drinks 00:07:23.210 --> 00:07:25.180 and you know it will come 00:07:25.180 --> 00:07:27.420 and you feel paralyzed. 00:07:27.820 --> 00:07:30.190 We always thought about 00:07:30.190 --> 00:07:33.310 creating social situations which would be midterm 00:07:33.310 --> 00:07:35.140 like some weeks at least. 00:07:35.350 --> 00:07:38.720 More than just hackathons, conferences, or workshops 00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:40.120 Enable people to join forces 00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:42.420 bring together different cultural backgrounds 00:07:42.420 --> 00:07:45.040 different perspectives, experiences, and skill sets. 00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:46.170 But the problem was always 00:07:46.170 --> 00:07:48.750 you need a space for that 00:07:48.750 --> 00:07:52.200 and you just need a huge team that can actually do it. 00:07:59.460 --> 00:08:01.680 Ouishare was built as a collective 00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:05.510 to bring together entrepreneurs, researchers 00:08:05.510 --> 00:08:07.250 people generally interested in 00:08:07.250 --> 00:08:09.460 peer-to-peer and the collaborative economy 00:08:09.460 --> 00:08:11.270 we do events, we do research 00:08:11.270 --> 00:08:13.920 we try to foster collective thinking 00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:15.830 and incubate new projects 00:08:15.830 --> 00:08:17.350 around the the collaborative economy, 00:08:17.350 --> 00:08:18.200 open source, 00:08:18.200 --> 00:08:19.580 and peer-to-peer in general 00:08:19.690 --> 00:08:22.500 since the first OuiShare Fest in 2013 00:08:22.500 --> 00:08:25.110 Ben & I have been working on 00:08:25.110 --> 00:08:27.790 the subject of Making and Distributed Manufacturing 00:08:27.790 --> 00:08:28.930 Hello everybody, 00:08:28.930 --> 00:08:31.400 thanks Ben for the kind introduction, 00:08:31.590 --> 00:08:32.340 At some point 00:08:32.340 --> 00:08:34.700 Dominik was invited as one of the speakers 00:08:34.700 --> 00:08:37.919 and the two stories fusioned together 00:08:40.549 --> 00:08:42.830 When I read the website about POC21 00:08:42.830 --> 00:08:45.190 I thought it was like a dream come true 00:08:45.190 --> 00:08:46.770 because everything that I like 00:08:46.770 --> 00:08:50.280 and that I value about life, 00:08:50.280 --> 00:08:52.720 like sustainability, making, 00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:54.480 co-living, 00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:57.040 and cooperating with other people 00:08:57.040 --> 00:08:59.430 It was a like a dream come true. 00:08:59.540 --> 00:09:03.110 I see huge value in bringing together 00:09:03.110 --> 00:09:08.030 the open source and tech mindset 00:09:08.590 --> 00:09:11.660 with the iteration of processes and 00:09:11.660 --> 00:09:14.100 the more socially-focused group work, community-building aspect 00:09:14.100 --> 00:09:15.370 and I think when you bring those two together 00:09:15.370 --> 00:09:16.620 they have different value sets 00:09:16.620 --> 00:09:17.860 but they really interact well when they come together. 00:09:17.860 --> 00:09:19.880 Trying out many new things 00:09:19.880 --> 00:09:22.790 but also giving processes some time 00:09:22.790 --> 00:09:25.250 and letting people learn about 00:09:25.250 --> 00:09:28.360 interaction and communities. 00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:29.550 When we started 00:09:29.550 --> 00:09:31.590 we came into a camp 00:09:31.590 --> 00:09:34.400 that is about developing 12 projects. 00:09:34.400 --> 00:09:37.220 What I personally didn't think about 00:09:37.340 --> 00:09:39.760 is that it requires a lot of people 00:09:39.760 --> 00:09:41.050 to do it 00:09:41.050 --> 00:09:42.490 It's a small village 00:09:43.230 --> 00:09:44.440 and a small village 00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:46.250 requires a lot of organization 00:09:49.460 --> 00:09:51.020 We are more than 100 people 00:09:51.020 --> 00:09:53.550 living together during more than 5 weeks, 00:09:53.550 --> 00:09:56.410 so we need to attribute tasks 00:09:56.410 --> 00:10:00.170 and everyone has to take their part to work on it 00:10:00.170 --> 00:10:01.840 so there are different tasks 00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:02.870 like toilet care, 00:10:02.870 --> 00:10:04.150 kitchen clean, 00:10:04.150 --> 00:10:05.240 cooking heroes, 00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:06.310 garbage crew, 00:10:06.310 --> 00:10:07.580 and night guardians 00:10:07.670 --> 00:10:10.090 Basically with this co-living stuff 00:10:10.090 --> 00:10:13.370 we are sure that we can live all together in a proper way 00:10:25.230 --> 00:10:27.580 people from the logistics team 00:10:27.580 --> 00:10:29.630 are sitting until 1 or 2 in the morning 00:10:29.630 --> 00:10:32.330 taking care of the travel, accommodations, 00:10:32.330 --> 00:10:34.370 somehow running the whole thing 00:10:34.370 --> 00:10:37.650 there are people that buy supplies 00:10:37.650 --> 00:10:39.850 and all having the thought in mind 00:10:39.850 --> 00:10:41.670 that it should be sustainable, it should be local. 00:10:42.280 --> 00:10:43.580 so, sustainability requires 00:10:43.580 --> 00:10:46.050 a lot of logistics 00:10:46.510 --> 00:10:48.170 this is the organic compost 00:10:48.170 --> 00:10:49.540 just for food waste 00:10:50.220 --> 00:10:52.140 so everything that we don't give to the chickens 00:10:52.140 --> 00:10:53.620 goes in here 00:10:53.620 --> 00:10:57.390 and it's made from palettes 00:10:59.170 --> 00:11:00.540 and re-used cardboard 00:11:00.540 --> 00:11:02.340 dry toilets are a good solution 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:05.940 because they don’t use water at all 00:11:05.940 --> 00:11:07.480 Generally toilets use 9L 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:09.310 every time we flush, 00:11:09.310 --> 00:11:12.840 and that’s drinking water. 00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:15.270 many people were not really aware 00:11:15.270 --> 00:11:16.870 of how it works 00:11:16.870 --> 00:11:18.550 and it’s a very... 00:11:18.730 --> 00:11:21.940 personal thing 00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:25.030 and they had to get used to it 00:11:25.030 --> 00:11:27.660 We were a bit scared of the reactions 00:11:27.660 --> 00:11:30.200 but there was no other solutions 00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:34.180 and it went quite well 00:11:34.180 --> 00:11:35.410 We have a lot of wood 00:11:35.410 --> 00:11:37.880 and leftovers from different building operations 00:11:37.880 --> 00:11:38.740 and we keep them 00:11:38.740 --> 00:11:39.870 to use them for furniture 00:11:39.870 --> 00:11:41.890 and for construction 00:11:41.890 --> 00:11:44.640 We have mainly vegetarian meals, 00:11:44.640 --> 00:11:46.740 we try to reduce meat as much as possible 00:11:46.740 --> 00:11:50.060 because meat is responsible for a lot of carbon emissions 00:11:50.060 --> 00:11:52.700 We want to be as coherent as we can 00:11:52.700 --> 00:11:55.700 while respecting people’s habits at the same time 00:11:55.700 --> 00:12:01.500 We have vegetables and fruits, from local and organic places 00:12:01.560 --> 00:12:02.600 we went to pick them up 00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:04.020 on Sundays 00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:06.660 we go to pick up some fruit at the farm 00:12:06.930 --> 00:12:08.730 which is 10-15 km from here. 00:12:25.570 --> 00:12:28.310 WEEK ONE: Participants meet with designers & engineers to discuss their projects 00:12:34.190 --> 00:12:36.390 The first week was there for shaking them up, 00:12:36.390 --> 00:12:37.650 saying, 00:12:37.650 --> 00:12:38.950 "Hey, nice project but 00:12:38.950 --> 00:12:41.600 we are not here to develop that like it is 00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:43.470 because then you could just do that at home 00:12:43.470 --> 00:12:45.180 so we have all kinds of skills sets 00:12:45.180 --> 00:12:46.750 and interesting people to mingle with 00:12:46.750 --> 00:12:49.330 and to rethink what you're actually doing." 00:12:49.880 --> 00:12:51.040 it's interesting how 00:12:51.040 --> 00:12:54.900 each project is at a different stage of development 00:12:54.900 --> 00:12:58.710 some of them, they have to still work very hard 00:12:58.710 --> 00:13:00.470 on making sure they are answering the right questions 00:13:00.470 --> 00:13:03.060 because their initial assumptions 00:13:03.230 --> 00:13:05.720 may start from the wrong point 00:13:08.290 --> 00:13:10.160 there are some projects in which you say 00:13:10.160 --> 00:13:11.160 OK, 00:13:11.630 --> 00:13:13.590 you just have to think about 00:13:13.590 --> 00:13:15.240 how to take it to the world 00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:16.550 it’s done 00:13:16.550 --> 00:13:17.550 it’s a great idea, 00:13:17.550 --> 00:13:19.660 a great working prototype, 00:13:19.660 --> 00:13:20.660 even in some cases 00:13:20.660 --> 00:13:22.880 it’s a product that's commercialized 00:13:23.130 --> 00:13:24.030 in other cases 00:13:24.030 --> 00:13:25.530 you think OK, this is totally wrong, 00:13:25.530 --> 00:13:28.410 this product shouldn’t exist in the world 00:13:28.410 --> 00:13:29.510 but, 00:13:29.510 --> 00:13:31.110 your design principles are great. 00:13:37.420 --> 00:13:39.540 I'm part of the Nautile project 00:13:39.550 --> 00:13:42.550 which is a bio-inspired kettle 00:13:42.550 --> 00:13:45.550 that is a test case project for methodology 00:13:45.550 --> 00:13:47.000 showing how we can 00:13:47.000 --> 00:13:50.760 systematically redesign products from everyday life 00:13:50.760 --> 00:13:52.540 with bio inspiration 00:13:52.540 --> 00:13:54.070 to make them more sustainable 00:13:54.190 --> 00:13:55.500 what we have now is a model 00:13:55.500 --> 00:13:56.760 it's an hypothesis 00:13:56.760 --> 00:13:58.420 we need to make it real 00:13:58.420 --> 00:14:01.940 we had a discussion with Tomas Diez from FabLab Barcelona 00:14:01.940 --> 00:14:05.990 on the feasibility of 3D printing the kettle in ceramics 00:14:05.990 --> 00:14:07.230 at a reasonable price, 00:14:07.230 --> 00:14:08.730 which is not the case 00:14:08.820 --> 00:14:11.360 In the end we kind of agree on the fact that 00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:15.660 the design we boiled down from many principles 00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:18.790 was not the right one for what we want to do 00:14:19.010 --> 00:14:20.860 what we have to do now 00:14:20.860 --> 00:14:24.370 is really re-prioritize all our objectives 00:14:24.370 --> 00:14:28.450 and get back to a new realistic product 00:14:28.450 --> 00:14:30.400 we can then detail design, 00:14:30.400 --> 00:14:32.160 and produce over the next few weeks. 00:14:35.310 --> 00:14:36.740 wWe are here at POC 00:14:36.740 --> 00:14:40.530 developing open source open agriculture kits 00:14:40.530 --> 00:14:42.310 that can be downloaded 00:14:42.310 --> 00:14:45.160 and CNC routed - cut - 00:14:45.160 --> 00:14:47.550 out of plywood or other sheet materials 00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:50.700 and assembled really easily 00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:53.160 some people like Simon said to me: 00:14:53.280 --> 00:14:56.860 "I’m one of your potential customers, 00:14:56.860 --> 00:14:58.300 and this is the reason 00:14:58.300 --> 00:15:02.210 I’m not sold yet on what you’re doing." 00:15:02.210 --> 00:15:05.030 because right now when I see myself as a customer, 00:15:05.030 --> 00:15:06.750 it would still be a huge hassle 00:15:06.750 --> 00:15:07.940 to download the files, 00:15:07.940 --> 00:15:09.250 go to a FabLab, 00:15:09.250 --> 00:15:10.330 CNC cut them, 00:15:10.330 --> 00:15:11.270 get the pieces, 00:15:11.270 --> 00:15:15.800 still then I have a very very simple raised bed 00:15:18.460 --> 00:15:21.810 I'm kind of missing the added value 00:15:21.810 --> 00:15:24.900 over just going to Castorama 00:15:24.900 --> 00:15:26.520 buying 4 pieces of wood 00:15:26.520 --> 00:15:28.120 putting it in my garden... 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:30.110 you know what I mean? 00:15:30.640 --> 00:15:33.710 I'm just trying to help you, I really like the idea 00:15:34.530 --> 00:15:36.220 the core of what you're doing 00:15:36.220 --> 00:15:39.290 is the modularity, I think 00:15:39.730 --> 00:15:42.730 that enables like a Lego system 00:15:42.730 --> 00:15:44.500 I was confused for a bit about 00:15:44.500 --> 00:15:47.070 "oh, does this mean we have to go back and redesign everything?" 00:15:47.070 --> 00:15:49.220 and that was kind of a really ominous feeling 00:15:49.220 --> 00:15:53.070 that made me actually feel really kind of nervous and scared 00:15:53.070 --> 00:15:54.750 because we’ve done all this work 00:15:54.750 --> 00:15:57.280 and do we have to now go back and redo it all? 00:15:57.290 --> 00:15:59.910 And fortunately other people came along 00:15:59.910 --> 00:16:01.470 and added on top of that, and were like 00:16:01.470 --> 00:16:04.530 "just rethink certain elements of what you’re doing 00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:07.130 and bring them to the next iteration, 00:16:07.130 --> 00:16:08.060 the next line, 00:16:08.060 --> 00:16:10.830 the next development cycle you go into." 00:16:10.890 --> 00:16:12.300 The difficulty that you’re facing, 00:16:12.300 --> 00:16:14.350 like in any other project, 00:16:14.350 --> 00:16:17.560 is to be both open 00:16:17.560 --> 00:16:18.960 to listen to advice, 00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:21.170 new ideas 00:16:21.170 --> 00:16:24.040 suggestions, discussions 00:16:24.040 --> 00:16:26.360 to have that ability to listen 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:28.210 and at the same time 00:16:28.210 --> 00:16:31.200 to have the ability to know what you’re going to do 00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:35.620 and to be firm on realizing things 00:16:35.620 --> 00:16:38.070 it’s a kind of schizophrenic ability 00:16:38.990 --> 00:16:42.430 MAKING POC21 ACCESSIBLE: Opening up the camp 00:16:52.470 --> 00:16:54.740 I think it's important we frame this for the public 00:16:54.740 --> 00:16:57.340 just to reach out to these other groups of society 00:16:57.340 --> 00:17:00.880 so it's easier for other people to just have access 00:17:00.880 --> 00:17:03.100 because open source is one thing 00:17:03.100 --> 00:17:06.450 but as long as it's closed into engineering circles 00:17:06.450 --> 00:17:08.990 and super expert circles 00:17:08.990 --> 00:17:11.980 it will not take off 00:17:15.339 --> 00:17:16.470 bonjour and hello! 00:17:16.470 --> 00:17:19.280 I’m Zoe from the POC21 Live Magazine 00:17:19.280 --> 00:17:22.390 we’re standing at the gates of Chateau Millemont 00:17:22.390 --> 00:17:24.900 and I want to show you around 00:17:24.900 --> 00:17:26.260 just follow me 00:17:30.620 --> 00:17:32.380 we’re going to the lounge now 00:17:32.380 --> 00:17:35.910 we all meet here, all generations, all people 00:17:35.910 --> 00:17:39.050 this is like our big living room I would say 00:17:44.710 --> 00:17:46.110 here in the back you can see the showers 00:17:46.110 --> 00:17:48.550 in the beginning when the showers didn’t exist yet 00:17:48.550 --> 00:17:50.440 we had those solar shower bags 00:17:50.440 --> 00:17:51.530 they were lying in the sun 00:17:51.530 --> 00:17:52.600 then you could hang it up 00:17:52.600 --> 00:17:54.250 and have a shower in the nature 00:17:54.250 --> 00:17:57.030 now we have real luxurious showers 00:17:57.960 --> 00:17:59.650 can we come and film you? 00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:03.450 this is Phillipp and Mercé 00:18:03.690 --> 00:18:05.760 we're making a Caprese 00:18:06.690 --> 00:18:09.540 it’s like a tomato production factory here 00:18:10.360 --> 00:18:11.700 let’s go to the Factory 00:18:11.700 --> 00:18:13.560 this is the place where all the magic happens 00:18:13.560 --> 00:18:14.890 and where all the machines are 00:18:14.890 --> 00:18:16.520 basically a classical FabLab. 00:18:27.740 --> 00:18:29.640 FabLab stands for FABrication LABoratory 00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:31.590 it’s a place where you can find 00:18:31.590 --> 00:18:33.530 machines and people 00:18:33.530 --> 00:18:35.670 that can help you make almost anything 00:18:35.670 --> 00:18:36.750 there are tools 00:18:36.760 --> 00:18:39.320 to bring manufacturing closer to the users 00:18:39.320 --> 00:18:42.070 and bring back the knowledge of making things to people 00:18:42.180 --> 00:18:44.890 which we lost a couple hundred years ago 00:18:44.890 --> 00:18:46.540 with the massive industrialization 00:18:46.540 --> 00:18:48.280 that we are living in today 00:18:48.280 --> 00:18:50.200 it’s basically about empowering people 00:18:50.200 --> 00:18:51.440 through technology 00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:54.260 to affect reality, to change reality 00:18:55.560 --> 00:18:57.380 the FabLab at POC21 00:18:57.380 --> 00:19:00.140 looks like any other FabLab in the world 00:19:00.460 --> 00:19:01.660 you can use a laser cutter 00:19:01.660 --> 00:19:03.890 to cut textiles, wood in small pieces 00:19:03.890 --> 00:19:05.760 to make smaller prototypes 00:19:05.760 --> 00:19:07.830 or some parts of larger prototypes 00:19:07.830 --> 00:19:10.720 you can find a large-scale milling machine 00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:14.000 that can help you cut pieces of metal, wood 00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:17.060 which you can make from furniture to entire houses 00:19:17.060 --> 00:19:18.720 or large structures 00:19:23.850 --> 00:19:25.200 a CNC machine 00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:28.170 is a milling machine that can place itself 00:19:28.170 --> 00:19:29.760 with computer-based code 00:19:29.760 --> 00:19:31.620 you design something on your computer 00:19:31.620 --> 00:19:33.100 then you go through a program 00:19:33.100 --> 00:19:34.680 that will generate G-code 00:19:34.680 --> 00:19:36.960 which commands the machine. 00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:39.410 one of the cool tools we have here 00:19:39.410 --> 00:19:41.090 is a 3D printer 00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:44.050 it uses a material in an additive way 00:19:44.050 --> 00:19:46.800 so rather than doing like a CNC machine which cuts out 00:19:46.800 --> 00:19:48.700 a 3D printer builds up 00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:49.960 what we’re looking at here 00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:51.690 is just a 3D model 00:19:51.690 --> 00:19:54.560 once that’s ready we put it on a SD card 00:19:54.560 --> 00:19:55.670 and we put it in the machine 00:19:55.670 --> 00:19:56.870 and it’s ready to go. 00:19:56.870 --> 00:19:58.420 we have a cable of plastic 00:19:58.420 --> 00:20:00.780 that we heat up until it melts 00:20:00.780 --> 00:20:02.900 then the 3D printer lays it down 00:20:02.900 --> 00:20:05.030 in layers on top of each other 00:20:05.220 --> 00:20:07.400 if you can imagine an object 00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:08.830 and it’s physically possible 00:20:08.830 --> 00:20:10.790 you can definitely 3D print it. 00:20:11.140 --> 00:20:16.290 the FabLab network is 557 FabLabs around the world 00:20:16.290 --> 00:20:17.770 it’s not only places with machines 00:20:17.770 --> 00:20:19.060 it’s about the people behind them, 00:20:19.060 --> 00:20:21.080 the community that is exchanging knowledge 00:20:21.080 --> 00:20:22.650 about the future of fabrication 00:20:22.870 --> 00:20:24.150 and specifically, 00:20:24.150 --> 00:20:26.870 about the future of digital fabrication 00:20:26.870 --> 00:20:28.290 one of the keys of a FabLab 00:20:28.290 --> 00:20:30.060 is to have common equipment 00:20:30.060 --> 00:20:32.280 that allows the exchange of digital knowledge 00:20:32.280 --> 00:20:33.650 around the world 00:20:33.650 --> 00:20:34.790 so I can design something here 00:20:34.790 --> 00:20:35.730 in Paris 00:20:35.730 --> 00:20:37.670 and just upload the content 00:20:37.670 --> 00:20:39.280 and then in Cape Town in South Africa 00:20:39.280 --> 00:20:40.450 they can download it, adapt it, 00:20:40.450 --> 00:20:42.300 and manufacture it with the same tools 00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:45.010 that happens in terms of minutes, of seconds 00:20:45.070 --> 00:20:48.660 Week 2: Supporters & Mentors help the projects to refine their concepts 00:20:53.040 --> 00:20:54.750 Not a lot of people think 00:20:54.750 --> 00:20:58.290 from the very physical, technological principles 00:20:58.290 --> 00:20:59.900 towards the end product 00:20:59.900 --> 00:21:02.420 The strength of this format 00:21:02.420 --> 00:21:04.390 is it brings a lot of people together 00:21:04.390 --> 00:21:05.350 some are specialists, 00:21:05.350 --> 00:21:06.650 some are generalists 00:21:06.650 --> 00:21:07.930 and we try to enter with 00:21:07.930 --> 00:21:11.070 all these different skills and abilities. 00:21:12.620 --> 00:21:15.070 When we talk about sustainability 00:21:15.070 --> 00:21:18.520 it's a way of thinking, of designing 00:21:18.520 --> 00:21:21.690 it's not just about choosing the right material 00:21:21.690 --> 00:21:25.450 I think my main role here is to help them 00:21:25.450 --> 00:21:27.210 not just say 'this is the right material' 00:21:27.210 --> 00:21:28.600 'use that or use this' 00:21:28.600 --> 00:21:30.400 but to give them parameters 00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:32.060 so they understand 00:21:32.060 --> 00:21:36.000 the logic behind using one material or another 00:21:37.120 --> 00:21:39.260 As we are project designers 00:21:39.260 --> 00:21:43.660 we don't have any expertise in aquaponic 00:21:43.660 --> 00:21:46.410 or kitchen or mechanical or anything like that 00:21:46.410 --> 00:21:47.560 and this is why we are here: 00:21:47.560 --> 00:21:50.590 to get people who know, really know. 00:21:50.760 --> 00:21:53.610 I really talked with Bicitractor guys 00:21:53.610 --> 00:21:55.260 and they did fly wheels 00:21:55.260 --> 00:21:56.940 and mechanical stuff before 00:21:56.940 --> 00:21:59.520 and so they said, okay you should do this and this 00:21:59.520 --> 00:22:01.100 and then you can try that tomorrow 00:22:02.960 --> 00:22:04.170 One guy from the TV channel, 00:22:04.170 --> 00:22:07.010 how do you call that? -"Boom Operator" 00:22:07.010 --> 00:22:08.710 The boom operator was looking at my drawings 00:22:08.710 --> 00:22:10.770 and said, okay just a second 00:22:10.770 --> 00:22:12.960 you should do this and this... 00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:14.920 And even here it was constructive. 00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:17.600 There is one phase in the project 00:22:17.600 --> 00:22:19.970 that we need to be open 00:22:19.970 --> 00:22:23.450 then after I think we need to be more closed to advices 00:22:23.450 --> 00:22:25.650 because it's only five weeks 00:22:25.650 --> 00:22:28.170 and it's very short so we have to go 00:22:28.270 --> 00:22:29.900 at one moment we have to say, okay we do this 00:22:29.900 --> 00:22:31.070 maybe it's not the best idea 00:22:31.070 --> 00:22:32.290 but we do it 00:22:32.290 --> 00:22:33.570 and we make it work. 00:22:33.610 --> 00:22:35.710 We hope everything will work at the first try 00:22:35.710 --> 00:22:37.690 but it will never happen 00:22:37.690 --> 00:22:39.320 This is why there is one hundred people 00:22:39.320 --> 00:22:40.270 to help you 00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:43.160 to go fast and to re-do it again and again 00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:45.210 within the five weeks, 00:22:45.210 --> 00:22:46.910 but yeah that's my biggest fear 00:22:46.910 --> 00:22:48.850 that the mechanical part, for example, won't work 00:22:48.850 --> 00:22:50.710 or even the kitchen won't work 00:22:50.710 --> 00:22:53.130 but it will work. it will work. 00:22:53.130 --> 00:22:54.070 I hope so. 00:22:55.460 --> 00:22:59.550 Some teams are in need of some engineering advice 00:22:59.550 --> 00:23:02.460 and some teams are in need of design advice, 00:23:03.460 --> 00:23:06.360 and some are just in need 00:23:06.520 --> 00:23:08.360 of a haircut, right? 00:23:23.340 --> 00:23:25.640 it's done? 00:23:26.210 --> 00:23:27.780 how do you feel, Kim? 00:23:27.780 --> 00:23:30.450 it's awesome. it's really good. 00:23:30.450 --> 00:23:32.070 I am a fresh man now. 00:23:32.590 --> 00:23:33.910 Open Source Documentation 00:23:33.910 --> 00:23:35.770 A dedicated team helps the projects 00:23:35.770 --> 00:23:37.800 to create manuals & tutorials 00:23:42.760 --> 00:23:44.470 All of the projects being developed here 00:23:44.480 --> 00:23:45.930 are open source, 00:23:45.930 --> 00:23:49.610 and documentation is a very important aspect of open source 00:23:49.610 --> 00:23:50.610 to diffuse the idea 00:23:50.610 --> 00:23:53.400 and make it accessible to other people 00:23:53.610 --> 00:23:56.690 the idea is to show how the product is built 00:23:56.690 --> 00:23:57.690 step-by-step 00:23:57.690 --> 00:23:59.420 and also to show 00:23:59.420 --> 00:24:01.780 the process of decision-making inside a product 00:24:01.780 --> 00:24:05.530 because sometimes you'll choose one material over another 00:24:05.530 --> 00:24:07.430 and there's a reason for that 00:24:07.430 --> 00:24:12.440 showing this allows the community who will develop it 00:24:12.440 --> 00:24:14.610 to go a step further, knowing already 00:24:14.610 --> 00:24:18.650 ok, this material isn't good for this project, and why not 00:24:19.520 --> 00:24:21.760 in the open source method of collaboration, 00:24:21.760 --> 00:24:24.470 many people work together, on projects 00:24:24.470 --> 00:24:26.020 whose plans, code 00:24:26.020 --> 00:24:28.840 or "recipes" are shared online. 00:24:28.840 --> 00:24:30.640 people collaborate like this to build 00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:31.820 open source cars, 00:24:31.820 --> 00:24:33.200 3D printers, 00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:34.650 and even houses. 00:24:34.650 --> 00:24:36.820 These ideas can spread around the world 00:24:36.820 --> 00:24:38.170 and evolve quickly 00:24:38.170 --> 00:24:41.090 as different people adapt and improve them. 00:24:41.930 --> 00:24:47.320 If you imagine applying this speed and efficiency 00:24:47.320 --> 00:24:49.610 of development in research 00:24:49.610 --> 00:24:51.860 to such an issue as climate change, 00:24:52.510 --> 00:24:56.110 you see that in a situation where you have very limited time 00:24:56.110 --> 00:24:57.470 and a big problem, 00:24:57.470 --> 00:25:01.200 and you really need to have the biggest team you can, 00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:05.980 open source is like just the easiest and the most sustainable way to go. 00:25:07.040 --> 00:25:09.760 The project Faircap started with very simple idea, 00:25:09.760 --> 00:25:12.070 and that was to make a tiny filter 00:25:12.070 --> 00:25:13.920 that you can screw into a bottle, 00:25:13.920 --> 00:25:15.850 and you can take water from a stream, 00:25:15.850 --> 00:25:17.600 from a lake, from the tap 00:25:17.600 --> 00:25:19.510 and just drink straight from it. 00:25:19.510 --> 00:25:24.460 I think there's a big benefit from doing it open source. 00:25:24.460 --> 00:25:26.650 The information is open 00:25:26.650 --> 00:25:30.770 so that it's easier to understand how it works. 00:25:30.770 --> 00:25:34.050 I think that's empowering people, 00:25:34.050 --> 00:25:35.900 not just telling them, 00:25:35.900 --> 00:25:37.580 "Yeah, this cleans water and that's it." 00:25:37.580 --> 00:25:40.430 But, "This cleans water because we're using this, 00:25:40.430 --> 00:25:42.490 and maybe in the future it's going to be improved". 00:25:42.490 --> 00:25:45.980 The second aspect, I think, it's also an economic aspect, 00:25:45.980 --> 00:25:51.450 because by sharing this online or with different designers, 00:25:51.450 --> 00:25:53.130 a lot of people can collaborate 00:25:53.130 --> 00:25:55.930 from the scientific point of view, from the design point of view, 00:25:55.930 --> 00:25:57.830 to make it easier to use, 00:25:57.830 --> 00:25:59.530 to make it low cost to produce. 00:26:00.850 --> 00:26:03.070 It's not easy to talk about what you're doing 00:26:03.070 --> 00:26:05.390 when you work in open source. 00:26:05.390 --> 00:26:06.520 People don't understand, 00:26:06.520 --> 00:26:08.970 people think it's, either they don't know what it is, 00:26:08.970 --> 00:26:12.450 or they think it's some kind of 00:26:12.450 --> 00:26:14.690 thing you can't make your living out of, 00:26:14.690 --> 00:26:18.650 or it's maybe a hobby for some of us. 00:26:20.040 --> 00:26:23.580 The things that are happening are being shared laterally through networks, 00:26:23.580 --> 00:26:27.520 blogs, wikis, mostly online. 00:26:27.520 --> 00:26:30.030 They go from community to community, 00:26:30.030 --> 00:26:33.380 but there's still a mass audience out there that doesn't get that. 00:26:33.380 --> 00:26:36.250 I think one of the reasons we don't see it 00:26:36.250 --> 00:26:38.850 is because we are addicted to bigness: 00:26:38.850 --> 00:26:42.560 big companies, multinationals, 00:26:42.560 --> 00:26:45.710 and what's happening now is distribution. 00:26:45.710 --> 00:26:49.240 It's lots of small projects coalescing together. 00:26:50.530 --> 00:26:52.930 I think there's a lot more of us out there 00:26:52.930 --> 00:26:54.760 than we know 00:26:54.760 --> 00:26:56.010 if we can start connecting up 00:26:56.010 --> 00:26:57.770 some of these networks and communities 00:26:57.770 --> 00:27:01.020 who want to work in this quite new way 00:27:01.020 --> 00:27:03.900 that's based in positive social values, 00:27:03.900 --> 00:27:06.210 egalitarianism, entrepreneurialism, 00:27:06.210 --> 00:27:08.630 autonomy, collaboration, 00:27:08.630 --> 00:27:11.610 it's going to be super powerful and exciting 00:27:11.610 --> 00:27:13.940 and I think the movement is already global 00:27:13.940 --> 00:27:16.180 and we just need to find each other. 00:27:19.100 --> 00:27:22.390 At POC21 the projects are super diverse. 00:27:22.390 --> 00:27:24.430 They are all happening at different stages of development 00:27:24.430 --> 00:27:26.420 but when I have gone and talked with them, 00:27:26.420 --> 00:27:28.320 the thing that has been really interesting to me 00:27:28.320 --> 00:27:30.170 is this combination of 00:27:30.170 --> 00:27:32.290 I have this kernel of an idea 00:27:32.290 --> 00:27:33.880 but what I really want 00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:36.420 is for this broader community to build off of it. 00:27:36.550 --> 00:27:38.410 SunZilla is designed to replace 00:27:38.410 --> 00:27:40.440 conventional diesel generators 00:27:40.440 --> 00:27:41.810 in remote areas 00:27:41.810 --> 00:27:43.450 or outdoor events. 00:27:43.450 --> 00:27:45.250 We want to be more modular, 00:27:45.260 --> 00:27:48.280 so the battery is in a separate box 00:27:48.280 --> 00:27:50.950 depending on your energy need, 00:27:50.950 --> 00:27:53.490 you have a bigger box with more solar panels, 00:27:53.490 --> 00:27:56.010 or a smaller box with less solar panels 00:27:56.010 --> 00:27:59.460 One module we'd like to be developed 00:27:59.460 --> 00:28:02.490 is a water purification module. 00:28:02.490 --> 00:28:04.250 All the plans are open, 00:28:04.250 --> 00:28:06.850 and you know exactly what you have to do 00:28:06.850 --> 00:28:08.840 to make a module which fits to our system. 00:28:08.840 --> 00:28:10.390 and you can even adapt the code 00:28:10.390 --> 00:28:12.170 to make it perfect for your needs. 00:28:13.020 --> 00:28:14.840 That is effectively a platform 00:28:14.840 --> 00:28:17.380 for other people to innovate on top of 00:28:17.380 --> 00:28:19.460 that’s really different 00:28:19.460 --> 00:28:21.690 to how industry thinks most of the time 00:28:21.690 --> 00:28:24.210 there’s a way of taking what they are doing 00:28:24.210 --> 00:28:25.760 and saying okay, 00:28:25.760 --> 00:28:27.980 we want to see this spread 00:28:27.980 --> 00:28:33.260 and to see it spread we need to share our knowledge and share our insights 00:28:33.260 --> 00:28:37.840 and encourage and invite other people to innovate with us. 00:28:37.840 --> 00:28:39.570 When we close those models up 00:28:39.570 --> 00:28:41.460 and we say 'oh, this is very protected' and everything 00:28:41.460 --> 00:28:43.270 it means that it doesn't scale 00:28:43.270 --> 00:28:45.680 but we are in a hurry, a serious hurry 00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:50.140 we are in a life transforming hurry right now. 00:28:51.020 --> 00:28:52.810 It's easy to think sustainability is 00:28:52.810 --> 00:28:54.220 society's problem 00:28:54.220 --> 00:28:55.520 or someone else's problem, 00:28:55.520 --> 00:28:57.600 but actually it's sort of all of us, 00:28:57.600 --> 00:28:59.420 what we do day-to-day. 00:28:59.420 --> 00:29:03.230 We often think in terms of these 2050 or 2030 goals 00:29:03.500 --> 00:29:05.430 and that actually puts the problem in the future 00:29:05.430 --> 00:29:07.760 like, "we can keep living as we do now, 00:29:07.760 --> 00:29:10.390 but by 2030 we'll have fixed it." 00:29:11.610 --> 00:29:16.530 Actually it's not these 2030 goals that matter, 00:29:16.530 --> 00:29:19.000 it's cumulative emissions. 00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:23.100 In order to limit our chances of exceeding two degrees of warming, 00:29:23.100 --> 00:29:27.320 we need to reduce our carbon emissions by 40% by 2018, 00:29:27.320 --> 00:29:30.040 70% by 2025, 00:29:30.040 --> 00:29:31.950 90% by 2030, 00:29:31.950 --> 00:29:33.750 and 100% by 2035. 00:29:33.750 --> 00:29:36.720 To reach that kind of de-carbonization 00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:39.260 in the energy sector, 00:29:39.260 --> 00:29:40.470 we obviously have to 00:29:40.470 --> 00:29:42.490 ramp up renewable energy. 00:29:42.680 --> 00:29:44.200 In the last six years, 00:29:44.200 --> 00:29:46.200 solar capacity worldwide grew 00:29:46.200 --> 00:29:49.080 from about 17 gigawatts to 177 gigawatts 00:29:49.080 --> 00:29:50.400 and wind doubled 00:29:50.400 --> 00:29:53.610 from 120 to 318 gigawatts 00:29:53.820 --> 00:29:55.850 I’m interested in how do we connect 00:29:55.850 --> 00:29:57.770 to this big picture, to the energy transition, 00:29:57.770 --> 00:29:59.810 which is really what Open Energy Monitor is about, 00:29:59.810 --> 00:30:02.170 showing you how much energy you’re using 00:30:02.170 --> 00:30:06.300 and how much energy is coming from these different renewable energy sources. 00:30:07.090 --> 00:30:09.350 Once I did an energy audit on lighting 00:30:09.350 --> 00:30:10.470 it really surprised me, like 00:30:10.470 --> 00:30:11.960 "Wow, that's a lot of energy" 00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:13.990 and people leave the lights on all the time, 00:30:13.990 --> 00:30:15.810 so it really impacted me 00:30:15.810 --> 00:30:17.900 when I did that and I had the knowledge, 00:30:17.900 --> 00:30:21.800 I go around now nowadays turning off the lights wherever. 00:30:22.190 --> 00:30:24.090 Now, with the water, I have the same thing 00:30:24.090 --> 00:30:25.060 like, again 00:30:25.060 --> 00:30:26.520 "Wow! That's a lot of energy!" 00:30:26.520 --> 00:30:29.860 like, you can't have a solar photovoltaic shower. 00:30:29.860 --> 00:30:34.020 You'd need 10 square meters of solar panels to do it, 00:30:34.020 --> 00:30:36.180 in real time 00:30:36.180 --> 00:30:38.540 The other part is what often call 00:30:38.540 --> 00:30:41.220 "power down" or "energy efficiency" 00:30:41.220 --> 00:30:44.760 We can achieve huge reduction in energy demand, 00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:47.640 almost 75% through 00:30:48.850 --> 00:30:52.170 electrification of transport, of heating 00:30:52.640 --> 00:30:55.440 and better insulation and draft-proofing in buildings. 00:30:56.200 --> 00:30:59.370 This is tricky, but it's also very, very simple. 00:30:59.970 --> 00:31:02.780 If we can decrease our consumption 00:31:03.070 --> 00:31:06.070 but maintain our quality of life, 00:31:06.230 --> 00:31:08.010 then that's a start 00:31:08.010 --> 00:31:09.230 Everyone will say, 00:31:09.230 --> 00:31:10.530 "oh, take shorter showers" 00:31:10.530 --> 00:31:11.830 or "take cold showers" 00:31:11.830 --> 00:31:12.650 but 00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:14.270 I don't want to! 00:31:14.270 --> 00:31:15.810 you know? I'm used to this. 00:31:15.810 --> 00:31:17.190 and I've just made the tech 00:31:17.190 --> 00:31:19.350 so it's possible to do that. 00:31:20.100 --> 00:31:22.570 Here we have Showerloop, the prototype, 00:31:23.050 --> 00:31:25.030 it’s basically just a shower 00:31:25.460 --> 00:31:27.270 you can run in a loop. 00:31:27.520 --> 00:31:29.590 You can use your hot water 00:31:29.590 --> 00:31:32.150 that you already got from the outside 00:31:32.150 --> 00:31:35.400 and cycle it as long as it stays hot 00:31:35.400 --> 00:31:37.590 to save a lot of heat energy 00:31:37.590 --> 00:31:39.640 that’s the awesome part of it - 00:31:39.640 --> 00:31:40.640 we’re not just saving water, 00:31:40.640 --> 00:31:42.800 it’s really about energy. 00:31:42.800 --> 00:31:45.990 Water comes from the bottom, the pump, 00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:49.170 gets pumped through the filter, 00:31:49.560 --> 00:31:51.540 comes up through the showerhead, 00:31:51.540 --> 00:31:53.850 and you can shower in a cycle. 00:31:53.850 --> 00:31:56.950 Instead of a normal shower using 100 liters of water, 00:31:56.950 --> 00:31:58.810 Showerloop only needs 10. 00:31:58.810 --> 00:32:01.040 Maybe it can have a larger impact 00:32:01.040 --> 00:32:03.120 by changing people's mentality 00:32:03.120 --> 00:32:04.820 you'd take a shower like that in the morning, 00:32:04.820 --> 00:32:06.680 and if you know how it works 00:32:06.680 --> 00:32:08.520 maybe you start looking around, asking 00:32:08.520 --> 00:32:13.030 "Hey, why doesn't that work the same way?" 00:32:16.860 --> 00:32:18.750 We are here with different projects, 00:32:18.750 --> 00:32:20.740 working around energy 00:32:20.740 --> 00:32:23.520 or using energy 00:32:23.690 --> 00:32:25.890 we don’t want to work on different islands 00:32:25.890 --> 00:32:28.720 and just ignore each other 00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:32.230 so here at POC we have the opportunity to work together 00:32:32.230 --> 00:32:33.980 so let’s work together 00:32:33.980 --> 00:32:37.910 and make one interconnected energy system 00:32:37.910 --> 00:32:39.930 showing that we can be autonomous 00:32:39.930 --> 00:32:42.980 with only renewable energy supply. 00:32:45.630 --> 00:32:51.330 Week 3: from concepts to action 00:32:51.790 --> 00:32:53.440 So, what should do first? 00:32:54.990 --> 00:32:55.900 The exhibition. 00:32:55.900 --> 00:32:56.580 yeah, OK, 00:32:56.580 --> 00:32:58.450 let's talk about the exhibition 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 00:33:01.650 --> 00:33:03.880 I can see several issues that we have to decide on 00:33:03.880 --> 00:33:08.520 POC21 is the same as all the 12 projects 00:33:08.520 --> 00:33:09.520 we should run through the process 00:33:09.520 --> 00:33:12.150 that we try to get our projects through 00:33:12.150 --> 00:33:14.250 what is our vision? 00:33:14.630 --> 00:33:17.070 and how are we going to show our vision? 00:33:17.620 --> 00:33:22.220 I think the overall atmosphere should be that it can be believed 00:33:22.220 --> 00:33:24.660 as a 'proof of concept' 00:33:25.310 --> 00:33:27.080 like an atmospheric puzzle 00:33:27.080 --> 00:33:28.930 where when you leave, you understand 00:33:28.930 --> 00:33:32.030 ok actually, there could be a whole lifestyle around this 00:33:32.030 --> 00:33:34.990 I saw so many things, many of them not perfect 00:33:34.990 --> 00:33:36.450 but from the feeling, 00:33:36.450 --> 00:33:41.130 ok something's developing into a complete picture 00:33:42.190 --> 00:33:45.970 I think the projects are making a lot of progress 00:33:46.690 --> 00:33:51.010 right now, what we need to be careful about is to meet the schedule 00:33:51.840 --> 00:33:54.930 and move from divergence 00:33:55.020 --> 00:33:57.680 and a lot of new concepts for the projects 00:33:57.810 --> 00:34:00.810 to converging into the final prototypes and the exhibition 00:34:00.810 --> 00:34:05.410 it’s going to be the main focus and challenge for the remaining days. 00:34:08.250 --> 00:34:11.730 People are really starting to get physical 00:34:12.010 --> 00:34:14.560 so they come from out of their concepts and papers 00:34:14.560 --> 00:34:16.719 and some people, like the Bicitractor guys, 00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:18.440 you can hardly get them out of the Factory 00:34:18.440 --> 00:34:22.030 because they’re welding and sawing, all the day 00:34:24.409 --> 00:34:26.739 The Bicitractor is a tool 00:34:27.405 --> 00:34:30.712 for small-to-medium fruit & vegetable producers 00:34:32.252 --> 00:34:35.210 to perform small tasks 00:34:37.250 --> 00:34:42.389 like weeding, hoeing, opening a line, or sowing seeds 00:34:44.370 --> 00:34:48.159 We've spent two weeks working in the Factory 00:34:48.699 --> 00:34:50.420 8, 10 hours a day 00:34:50.420 --> 00:34:52.670 and that's what you see here 00:34:52.670 --> 00:34:54.600 that's the main frame 00:34:54.600 --> 00:34:56.760 this part here 00:34:56.760 --> 00:34:58.500 the big rectangle 00:34:59.010 --> 00:34:59.920 the seat 00:34:59.920 --> 00:35:01.630 the pedalling station 00:35:01.630 --> 00:35:03.130 and the transmission axis 00:35:03.130 --> 00:35:05.210 we're working on the steering right now 00:35:05.400 --> 00:35:08.670 I'm here with the $30 wind turbine project, 00:35:09.490 --> 00:35:11.790 which is a vertical access turbine 00:35:11.790 --> 00:35:13.810 that you can make for yourself 00:35:13.810 --> 00:35:16.300 with basic tools and skills 00:35:16.300 --> 00:35:18.920 using recycled materials 00:35:19.220 --> 00:35:21.730 it basically puts the ability to generate power 00:35:21.730 --> 00:35:23.250 in people's hands 00:35:23.250 --> 00:35:24.600 and everyone needs it! 00:35:25.220 --> 00:35:27.710 This is actually the first one I've made myself 00:35:27.710 --> 00:35:32.470 since the first prototypes back in 2013 00:35:32.470 --> 00:35:35.800 since then it's just been watching other people make them 00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:37.040 in the workshops. 00:35:37.340 --> 00:35:40.910 So these bottom three vanes were made by hand 00:35:41.180 --> 00:35:43.750 in 3 and a half hours 00:35:43.890 --> 00:35:46.260 these top ones were done by CNC machine, 00:35:46.260 --> 00:35:50.610 the first ones to have been done with the machine 00:35:51.140 --> 00:35:54.390 and they were printed in a couple of minutes each 00:35:54.560 --> 00:35:57.240 and then assembled in 90 minutes. 00:35:57.480 --> 00:35:59.780 So the full 6-vane version, 00:36:00.240 --> 00:36:02.690 you could do the whole thing in 4 hours. 00:36:25.210 --> 00:36:29.060 Instead of just collecting the sun like flat plate collectors 00:36:29.060 --> 00:36:32.010 which produce warm water 00:36:32.010 --> 00:36:34.040 domestic hot water for example 00:36:34.040 --> 00:36:37.210 if we want to have energy at higher temperature 00:36:37.210 --> 00:36:40.080 then you need to concentrate the light. 00:36:40.080 --> 00:36:42.430 We use mirrors that reflect the light 00:36:42.430 --> 00:36:43.880 on a pipe 00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:45.010 in which water flows 00:36:45.010 --> 00:36:47.020 transforming into steam 00:36:47.020 --> 00:36:49.720 We can use the steam for the various uses 00:36:49.720 --> 00:36:51.010 like food processing, 00:36:51.010 --> 00:36:53.040 sterilizing, cooking. 00:36:53.810 --> 00:36:57.480 The purpose of this electronics & software 00:36:58.270 --> 00:37:00.950 is to keep the concentrated sun 00:37:00.950 --> 00:37:03.070 on the main receptor 00:37:03.070 --> 00:37:06.170 While the sun moves in the sky 00:37:06.170 --> 00:37:09.570 the photosensor will give a signal to the Arduino board 00:37:09.770 --> 00:37:13.010 to move every single mirror into position. 00:37:15.200 --> 00:37:18.480 The Vélo M2 project is a multi-modular platform 00:37:18.480 --> 00:37:19.830 where we use one bike 00:37:19.830 --> 00:37:22.360 and we put different modules on it 00:37:22.360 --> 00:37:25.040 It's to try new experiments 00:37:25.040 --> 00:37:28.610 around renewable energy and bikes 00:37:28.610 --> 00:37:30.110 in any environment. 00:37:30.320 --> 00:37:35.730 Our energy module will be charged either by pedal power 00:37:36.060 --> 00:37:39.710 or either with other renewable energy sources 00:37:39.710 --> 00:37:43.080 so that we are totally independent of fossil fuel. 00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:52.330 The bike has a free-wheel system 00:37:52.330 --> 00:37:55.300 which prevents generaration of electricity 00:37:55.300 --> 00:37:58.220 so Milena blocked the free-wheel system 00:37:59.010 --> 00:38:02.440 now we pedal backwards and we generate electricity. 00:38:03.190 --> 00:38:06.730 This is just a test, to see if everything could work 00:38:06.980 --> 00:38:08.060 Let’s try it! 00:38:08.240 --> 00:38:11.530 Can you see if everything is set as we did before? 00:38:11.530 --> 00:38:12.250 Yeah 00:38:12.250 --> 00:38:14.640 We are generating 0.05 amps... 00:38:15.180 --> 00:38:16.500 Now it should work 00:38:16.500 --> 00:38:17.660 Is this normal? 00:38:17.660 --> 00:38:18.760 No... 00:38:19.430 --> 00:38:20.900 probably not. 00:38:21.380 --> 00:38:24.890 give it a couple of turns 00:38:24.890 --> 00:38:27.960 yeah but it derails each time 00:38:27.960 --> 00:38:28.740 yeah 00:38:32.100 --> 00:38:36.270 This is one of the practical problems that are slowing us down. 00:38:36.730 --> 00:38:39.520 Now that the electrical system is running 00:38:39.520 --> 00:38:42.550 the mechanical system is not working anymore. 00:38:42.550 --> 00:38:45.810 I think that we are totally fucking the derailleur…. 00:38:48.620 --> 00:38:52.880 We’re gonna go down to the construction side of the dome, 00:38:54.250 --> 00:38:57.810 which is a wooden pavillion 00:38:57.810 --> 00:38:59.370 with an inner tent 00:38:59.370 --> 00:39:01.680 that will host the exhibition 00:39:01.680 --> 00:39:04.730 for the 18th to the 20th of September. 00:39:12.860 --> 00:39:16.450 The dome is a very lightweight structure 00:39:16.450 --> 00:39:18.580 for the space it gives 00:39:19.120 --> 00:39:24.080 it’s also one the major DIY structures that is done in the world 00:39:24.270 --> 00:39:27.680 actually I guess it’s the biggest wooden dome in Europe 00:39:27.680 --> 00:39:29.610 we thought a lot about 00:39:29.610 --> 00:39:32.540 how to transfer everything that’s happened at POC 00:39:32.540 --> 00:39:34.580 the ideas, what’s happened here, 00:39:34.580 --> 00:39:37.140 and the collaborative process, into an exhibition 00:39:37.310 --> 00:39:39.050 it’s rather complicated 00:39:39.050 --> 00:39:42.050 to get that complex story across 00:39:42.050 --> 00:39:46.490 to people that have never really heard of open source, co-living 00:39:46.490 --> 00:39:48.490 or collaborative processes. 00:39:48.490 --> 00:39:51.690 There's also the idea that 00:39:51.690 --> 00:39:54.690 this is just an example for a better world 00:39:54.690 --> 00:39:57.610 it's part of a whole ecosphere of open source projects 00:40:23.610 --> 00:40:27.530 reinforcements arrive to help in the final sprint towards the exhibition 00:40:27.720 --> 00:40:31.640 it's one thing when you see it from outside, on your computer 00:40:31.640 --> 00:40:35.730 you can sense that there's a sort of chaos here 00:40:35.730 --> 00:40:39.550 but when you arrive here, you really feel it 00:40:39.670 --> 00:40:40.850 100 percent! 00:41:01.580 --> 00:41:02.580 so we noticed that 00:41:02.580 --> 00:41:05.030 being in such a busy work environment 00:41:05.030 --> 00:41:10.280 sometimes it’s hard to find quiet and focus 00:41:10.280 --> 00:41:13.370 the solution to this was to make a bunch of these crowns 00:41:13.370 --> 00:41:16.290 the idea is that you can put one of these on, 00:41:16.290 --> 00:41:20.550 and people know that you're trying to focus or want some quiet time alone 00:41:50.850 --> 00:41:53.060 I guess we will have a floating exhibition! 00:41:57.360 --> 00:42:00.470 We still need to build up the whole exhibition structure, 00:42:01.490 --> 00:42:06.820 so that’s 80 cubes that we still need to assemble and stack 00:42:07.500 --> 00:42:10.260 and we have to try and fit it in here. 00:42:13.210 --> 00:42:16.270 the dome is actually smaller than we hoped 00:42:16.270 --> 00:42:17.410 so we lost some space 00:42:17.410 --> 00:42:19.030 and it’s already crowded 00:42:19.030 --> 00:42:22.820 so the main task will be trying to fit it into the space 00:42:23.200 --> 00:42:26.740 and as well finding a way that it all works out 00:42:26.740 --> 00:42:30.720 even though we are like, one week behind 00:42:40.460 --> 00:42:43.040 even though it seems like Mission Impossible, 00:42:43.040 --> 00:42:44.070 I’m still optimistic 00:42:44.070 --> 00:42:45.420 I don’t know why, 00:42:45.420 --> 00:42:47.290 but I’m still smiling 00:42:47.290 --> 00:42:49.650 and looking forward to the next phase. 00:43:02.160 --> 00:43:05.750 Week 5: The final sprint 00:43:06.720 --> 00:43:09.790 We plan to be ready in two days 00:43:13.770 --> 00:43:18.090 It’s kind of the last stuff we have to do 00:43:18.450 --> 00:43:19.850 in terms of construction 00:43:19.850 --> 00:43:26.730 after that we have to bring the soil and humus etc 00:43:26.730 --> 00:43:28.310 to make the beds, 00:43:28.310 --> 00:43:31.110 but all the structure will be done. 00:43:35.580 --> 00:43:38.300 This is the preservation module 00:43:38.900 --> 00:43:43.110 it’s two ceramic pots with wet sand inside 00:43:43.790 --> 00:43:47.120 the more heat you have in the room, 00:43:47.120 --> 00:43:50.480 the colder it will be in the pot 00:43:50.480 --> 00:43:52.400 so basically for an apartment, 00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:55.590 you’re gonna have maybe 8-10 degrees. 00:43:55.590 --> 00:43:59.320 It’s an alternative way to preserve fruits and vegetables. 00:43:59.320 --> 00:44:01.370 It’s going super good. 00:44:01.370 --> 00:44:03.430 We have the start of the bioponic system 00:44:03.690 --> 00:44:09.060 and Valentin is working on the mechanical part 00:44:09.060 --> 00:44:13.670 all the really heavy parts of the mechanical system 00:44:13.670 --> 00:44:16.220 are already fixed. 00:44:16.220 --> 00:44:18.470 and it’s only Monday! 00:44:18.470 --> 00:44:19.720 unbelievable. 00:44:41.130 --> 00:44:43.830 As everything is ramped up for the final exhibition, 00:44:43.850 --> 00:44:45.790 everyone's in crunch phase, 00:44:45.790 --> 00:44:48.850 there's a definite need for the community 00:44:48.850 --> 00:44:50.380 to pull together - 00:44:50.380 --> 00:44:52.830 really start getting everything taken care of 00:44:52.830 --> 00:44:54.160 and working together. 00:45:04.340 --> 00:45:06.940 I’m the intern here, 00:45:06.940 --> 00:45:09.570 I'm learning how to use the drilling machine 00:45:09.570 --> 00:45:11.530 and I have no idea how I’m doing! 00:45:11.530 --> 00:45:13.210 he’s willing to learn, 00:45:14.850 --> 00:45:16.230 he’s a good student! 00:45:31.630 --> 00:45:35.660 So people will see your main profile board on this one 00:45:35.660 --> 00:45:37.080 and your name up there - 00:45:37.080 --> 00:45:38.310 and the bike will be here. 00:46:14.580 --> 00:46:17.970 We're building a tower, basically. 00:46:17.970 --> 00:46:19.560 Because the steel pole 00:46:19.560 --> 00:46:21.750 which was meant to be holding the turbines 00:46:21.750 --> 00:46:24.970 pretty much bent in half while we were trying to hoist the thing up. 00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:26.730 So we're going a lot more robust, 00:46:26.730 --> 00:46:28.800 which unfortunately means 00:46:28.800 --> 00:46:30.200 doing it now, on the last night. 00:46:58.290 --> 00:46:59.970 It's pretty late, now. 00:46:59.970 --> 00:47:01.710 It's the second night 00:47:01.710 --> 00:47:03.250 we're getting there. 00:47:03.680 --> 00:47:06.480 We disassembled everything 00:47:06.480 --> 00:47:08.700 and are reassembling the whole thing. 00:47:08.700 --> 00:47:12.300 Every team has disassembled and reassembled their thing. 00:47:12.300 --> 00:47:13.220 and what's your story? 00:47:13.220 --> 00:47:15.470 why did we have to rebuild? 00:47:16.730 --> 00:47:18.440 because... 00:47:18.440 --> 00:47:19.820 I broke... 00:47:19.820 --> 00:47:22.750 the door, 00:47:22.750 --> 00:47:24.580 the wall, the back wall 00:47:24.580 --> 00:47:26.710 where all the stuff was supposed to go 00:47:26.710 --> 00:47:28.750 which was totally my fault 00:47:28.750 --> 00:47:29.900 because I... 00:47:29.900 --> 00:47:31.320 I drilled into glass... 00:47:31.320 --> 00:47:33.130 and you can't drill into glass. 00:47:33.130 --> 00:47:36.010 The best part is now we can choose the place 00:47:36.010 --> 00:47:37.190 where we put our stuff 00:47:37.190 --> 00:47:38.510 but it needs time, 00:47:38.510 --> 00:47:41.020 and we don't have that much time! 00:48:27.430 --> 00:48:28.950 We feel super tired. 00:48:30.130 --> 00:48:32.000 But... 00:48:32.000 --> 00:48:34.340 it's exciting, because we finished. 00:48:35.260 --> 00:48:36.570 almost done. 00:48:37.160 --> 00:48:38.700 The last three days..? 00:48:40.620 --> 00:48:42.220 It was great! 00:48:42.220 --> 00:48:43.770 getting something done 00:48:43.770 --> 00:48:47.990 that was never expected to be done 00:48:47.990 --> 00:48:50.900 But here we are, here it is, yay! 00:48:55.750 --> 00:48:57.450 Yeah! We made it! 00:48:59.180 --> 00:49:01.310 I also feel kind of proud 00:49:01.310 --> 00:49:04.070 that we made it in such a short amount of time 00:49:05.130 --> 00:49:07.460 it’s like - how do you say? 00:49:07.460 --> 00:49:10.060 "made with a hot needle" 00:49:10.540 --> 00:49:11.960 but I think it works. 00:49:12.240 --> 00:49:14.950 2 minutes before the exhibiotn opening... 00:49:23.890 --> 00:49:26.490 Welcome again, we're about to show you the exhibition 00:49:28.290 --> 00:49:31.130 I’m excited that you’re here, that you're interested 00:49:31.130 --> 00:49:32.660 and we can show you what we did 00:49:32.660 --> 00:49:34.200 over the last weeks. 00:50:11.870 --> 00:50:15.450 We already are 400 people this afternoon, 00:50:15.450 --> 00:50:17.480 and 300 this morning 00:50:17.840 --> 00:50:19.460 So many people came back and say 00:50:19.460 --> 00:50:23.380 “it was super cool, I discovered lots of things.” 00:50:23.750 --> 00:50:27.170 I really hope that the people who come here 00:50:27.170 --> 00:50:30.060 and walk through the exhibition 00:50:30.060 --> 00:50:34.910 really leave being curious about what happened here 00:50:34.910 --> 00:50:37.460 and wanting to become part of this. 00:50:38.000 --> 00:50:39.010 It's hard to predict 00:50:39.010 --> 00:50:41.450 what exactly is going to come out of POC21 00:50:41.450 --> 00:50:44.070 I know that the story has really gotten out there. 00:50:44.070 --> 00:50:45.290 The media has been interested 00:50:45.290 --> 00:50:47.050 and people outside have been interested. 00:50:47.050 --> 00:50:49.450 This whole open source technology, 00:50:49.450 --> 00:50:52.290 it can be a technical discussion 00:50:52.290 --> 00:50:55.460 or people might not see its relationships with themselves. 00:50:55.460 --> 00:51:00.600 I think it's been a way in for people to think about: 00:51:00.600 --> 00:51:03.590 "How could we maybe develop products differently? 00:51:03.590 --> 00:51:05.410 How can we collaborate differently? 00:51:05.410 --> 00:51:07.300 Maybe it's not just companies. 00:51:07.300 --> 00:51:10.370 Maybe it's more like movements, like networks" 00:51:10.690 --> 00:51:13.570 I think this has been a great pathway in 00:51:13.570 --> 00:51:16.350 for people to start thinking about these deeper issues. 00:51:21.905 --> 00:51:24.025 to develop in open source 00:51:24.025 --> 00:51:26.365 means to provide a base 00:51:26.365 --> 00:51:28.705 so that it can grow more easily 00:51:28.705 --> 00:51:30.035 you launch an idea 00:51:30.035 --> 00:51:32.210 and people can adapt & replicate it 00:51:32.210 --> 00:51:35.130 improve it and create new applications for it 00:51:35.210 --> 00:51:39.360 For us, and I think for everybody that came here 00:51:39.360 --> 00:51:42.560 the next stop is COP21 00:51:42.560 --> 00:51:43.480 Then from there, 00:51:43.480 --> 00:51:48.530 we will see if we really did communicate well, 00:51:48.530 --> 00:51:54.090 if we did touch the public, and if we were taken seriously. 00:51:56.290 --> 00:51:59.160 One of the things I mention in my own lectures 00:51:59.160 --> 00:52:00.880 is the 'high road' and the 'low road' 00:52:00.880 --> 00:52:06.340 The high road is: we convince the dominant system 00:52:06.340 --> 00:52:09.820 to do some good things that reform itself 00:52:09.820 --> 00:52:13.350 so that the transition will be smooth 00:52:13.830 --> 00:52:15.150 if they don't do it... 00:52:15.150 --> 00:52:17.440 the transition will be hard 00:52:17.440 --> 00:52:20.230 but there will still be a transition 00:52:22.570 --> 00:52:24.930 We look at history 00:52:24.930 --> 00:52:26.650 It's not always easy 00:52:26.650 --> 00:52:28.140 We see, at the end of the Roman Empire, 00:52:28.140 --> 00:52:30.980 five centuries of chaos, 00:52:30.980 --> 00:52:33.620 no cities, and no roads 00:52:33.620 --> 00:52:34.820 if we do this today, 00:52:34.820 --> 00:52:36.690 we will have billions of people dying 00:52:36.690 --> 00:52:39.470 so I think is really 00:52:39.470 --> 00:52:41.870 why POC21 is important 00:52:41.870 --> 00:52:44.840 because it sends the message to the powers that says 00:52:46.450 --> 00:52:47.590 "There's a solution here. 00:52:47.590 --> 00:52:48.850 Help us. 00:52:49.010 --> 00:52:50.550 If you don't help us, 00:52:50.890 --> 00:52:52.890 it's going to be bad for everyone." 00:53:13.580 --> 00:53:15.870 the wate will be filtered through the process 00:53:15.870 --> 00:53:18.270 and go back clean to the fish tank 00:53:18.640 --> 00:53:19.750 it is a closed circle 00:53:19.750 --> 00:53:21.030 we use practically no water 00:53:21.030 --> 00:53:24.030 the only water lost is through evaporation 00:53:27.740 --> 00:53:29.360 here it should be understood 00:53:29.360 --> 00:53:30.780 that this is about decentralization 00:53:31.140 --> 00:53:32.865 for water, for energy, 00:53:32.865 --> 00:53:34.595 for access to food 00:53:40.490 --> 00:53:44.450 So right now, the SunZilla is powering 00:53:44.450 --> 00:53:46.220 the outer circle of the exhibition 00:53:46.330 --> 00:53:47.630 there are lights, 00:53:47.630 --> 00:53:50.360 but there are also computers and monitors 00:53:50.360 --> 00:53:53.020 and sometimes the velo m2 is charging their batteries 00:53:53.280 --> 00:53:55.600 and there's a pump for the Showerloop. 00:53:56.280 --> 00:53:58.010 So we're waiting for SolarOSE 00:53:58.010 --> 00:53:59.040 to get off their butts 00:53:59.040 --> 00:54:00.780 and make some hot water for me 00:54:00.780 --> 00:54:02.670 that's all I've ever wanted! 00:54:02.670 --> 00:54:05.770 a carbon neutral shower. 00:54:19.590 --> 00:54:22.190 I always say that it's not for sale, 00:54:22.190 --> 00:54:23.670 but we provide workshops so they can build it themselves. 00:54:23.670 --> 00:54:27.140 Then we explain why, 00:54:27.140 --> 00:54:29.810 because people have to build their own tools 00:54:30.010 --> 00:54:31.010 and adapt it to their special needs 00:54:31.010 --> 00:54:33.030 and then, they say 00:54:35.840 --> 00:54:39.870 'yeah, you're right, go on, don't give up'. 00:54:39.870 --> 00:54:41.960 POC21 was for me kind of a forced introspection, 00:54:43.090 --> 00:54:45.350 that is very positive in a way, 00:54:45.350 --> 00:54:48.260 I think it kind of liberated me 00:54:48.260 --> 00:54:50.170 and made something more clear 00:54:50.170 --> 00:54:52.550 than it was before I arrived 00:54:53.310 --> 00:54:57.680 it was a very strong personal experience 00:54:57.680 --> 00:54:59.960 And yeah, many links to maintain and nurture over the next few years. 00:55:02.540 --> 00:55:06.580 I am hoping that this is going to strengthen me, and ... 00:55:09.160 --> 00:55:12.410 I’m hoping I’ll be able to make this seed grow 00:55:12.410 --> 00:55:15.150 and do something going back where I live 00:55:15.150 --> 00:55:17.070 with people I’m around 00:55:18.070 --> 00:55:19.670 Not necessarily reproduce it, 00:55:19.670 --> 00:55:22.300 but take some from it and develop on it. 00:55:26.510 --> 00:55:30.060 It was pretty exhausting 00:55:30.060 --> 00:55:32.180 and very... 00:55:34.380 --> 00:55:35.230 special 00:55:35.230 --> 00:55:37.640 I never experienced something like this before. 00:55:37.640 --> 00:55:39.720 For me it’s all about the community 00:55:39.720 --> 00:55:42.070 meeting all these great people 00:55:42.070 --> 00:55:46.710 having an understanding about how a community could work 00:55:47.660 --> 00:55:50.080 practicing democracy, 00:55:50.080 --> 00:55:52.750 practicing living together 00:55:55.470 --> 00:55:59.480 For me... I want to free myself - and others 00:56:01.580 --> 00:56:05.290 and here I got the courage to do it, 00:56:05.290 --> 00:56:07.650 to really take the step and 00:56:09.230 --> 00:56:10.560 do something 00:56:10.560 --> 00:56:14.710 and not be afraid of not having so much money. 00:56:18.490 --> 00:56:20.640 After a day like this, 00:56:20.640 --> 00:56:24.510 you forget all the work 00:56:24.510 --> 00:56:27.450 and the difficulties and the issues... 00:56:28.160 --> 00:56:30.190 and I think, 00:56:30.190 --> 00:56:33.970 there weren’t so many, in the end. 00:56:37.280 --> 00:56:39.010 The last week was really exhausting, 00:56:39.010 --> 00:56:40.010 I didn’t sleep so much, 00:56:40.010 --> 00:56:41.810 but the last days 00:56:42.260 --> 00:56:44.710 proved to me it was necessary 00:56:44.710 --> 00:56:46.620 that it was really useful to do that, 00:56:46.620 --> 00:56:48.410 to not sleep 00:56:48.840 --> 00:56:51.500 The two days of exhibition, 00:56:51.500 --> 00:56:52.970 I mean, it was perfect 00:56:52.970 --> 00:56:55.030 we met so many nice people 00:56:56.440 --> 00:56:58.790 and even if there was not words 00:56:58.790 --> 00:57:00.230 just smiles and faces, 00:57:00.230 --> 00:57:02.630 seeing our project and the other projects 00:57:02.630 --> 00:57:03.660 People were like, 00:57:03.660 --> 00:57:06.460 ‘yes, another society is possible, this is possible’ 00:57:06.460 --> 00:57:09.630 'we’re happy to be here, we’re happy to see you’ 00:57:09.630 --> 00:57:12.770 and they said ‘thank you, thank you, thank you so much,’ 00:57:12.770 --> 00:57:13.960 and we were like 00:57:13.960 --> 00:57:16.150 ‘thanks for YOU to come and visit us!’ 00:57:16.460 --> 00:57:17.570 These two days, 00:57:18.060 --> 00:57:20.230 I never felt like that before in my life. 00:57:20.360 --> 00:57:21.760 I’m 25 years old, 00:57:21.760 --> 00:57:24.140 I feel like I’m responsible for something, 00:57:24.140 --> 00:57:26.100 I feel like I’m useful with my friends 00:57:26.100 --> 00:57:28.140 and with the whole community of POC21 00:57:29.870 --> 00:57:31.140 without being pretentious, 00:57:31.140 --> 00:57:32.470 I think we can be proud of ourselves 00:57:32.470 --> 00:57:35.170 and the last two days showed that 00:57:35.170 --> 00:57:37.170 we are really, really, really happy. 00:57:49.140 --> 00:57:54.220 Made with Free/Libre Open Source Software & built on Free Culture 00:58:35.190 --> 00:58:36.390 is this for my Mom? 00:58:36.390 --> 00:58:38.350 Hi Mom! how's it going?
