WEBVTT

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Thanks a lot for the invitation.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It's definitely not my time of the day so
excuse me if I'm a little bit…

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Right, next the track.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I'm always really happy to speak
in front of people

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
who are dealing with IT and stuff
because I'm so much not an IT person.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
You saw that I wasn't even able to start
my presentation alone.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I'm from CADUS.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
CADUS is a humanitarian NGO that was
founded 3 years ago in Berlin.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It was founded out of a kind of subculture
that is strongly related to the CCC, but

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
to the musical and festival subculture
as well.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
What I want to talk about today is
our crisis response makerspace in Berlin.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Holger (Levsen) invited me after we saw
each other again at Datengarten in Berlin

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and he asked if I can make the presentation
in english as well.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
My english is shit, so please excuse me if
I have to search some words

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
from time to time.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Do you have an idea
what this is?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It's a huge truck, it's a medical sign
on it, so this is a kind of mobile hospital.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mobile hospital which you can use if
other hospitals are broken down

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or if there are no hospitals.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Do you have an idea how much
such an hospital would cost you

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
to buy?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
3 millions, 2 millions, 3 millions,
4 millions, hum…

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
This is a picture of a destroyed hospital
in Syria.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
You all see a lot of pictures on the TV,
stuff like that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Can you relate these 3 to 4 millions
mobile hospitals

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
to these destroyed hospitals.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Do you normally see in the media that
if a hospital is destroyed

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
then this fancy stuff is deployed
to there?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Do you have an idea why?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It's "fucking expensive"?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Something more?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
"Who's gonna pay for it?"

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
"Is help wanted?"

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
More?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
It is a question of safety from time
to time.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
But on top you have to imagine Syria,
war country, dust, heat,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
no supply chain, nothing like that, so
bringing there

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
a 4 million mobile hospital might end in
two weeks of working and after that

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
nothing is working anymore because
you don't have the technicians

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
who can repair this kind of stuff
for example.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Next example, I'm sure you know.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
What it is is a pretty fancy fire truck.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
You have them in Germany
in all the bigger villages and

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
all the cities, stuff like that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
If you take a look inside this firetruck,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you see plenty of fancy stuff.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I love this stuff, there is stuff to put
out fire, there's stuff to lift things

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
with hydrolics.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
There is normal stuff like shovels and
stuff like that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
But if you relate this to pictures
in disaster areas,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
this is from Haiti, then you see that
you have plenty of people

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but no equipment at all.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
All's pretty clear because normally,
after a disaster,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
people from all over the world come
as fast as possible to the disaster area

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the so-called "urban search and rescue
teams".

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
They're coming by plane, so
all the fancy stuff that we have

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
in our societies stays here,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and a few people that typically
???

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
go to the disaster areas to help
the poor people.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
You understand this was cynical.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And there's a third example.
Have you ever seen what this is?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
This is a tourniquet.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
A tourniquet is one meter of nylon strap
and a little bit of plastic.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
A tourniquet is the best way to stop
severe bleeding immediately.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We know this since the second world war.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
At least it's twenty years
it's totally clear and

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
it's validated, this is the best way to
stop severe bleeding.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Spoiler, you won't see this in the media
if you see like people in Syria getting hurt

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
like losing legs after explosions and
stuff like that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Do you have an idea how expensive is
such a thing?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
One meter of nylon, a little piece
of plastic?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Not so expensive, but it goes in
that direction:

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
55 dollars for one of these.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
55 dollars for fucking one meter
of nylon strap.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And, I don't know, less than 10g
of plastic.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
The last example, I don't know if you have
a pet.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I had a dog, if I would like to,
I could add a GPS to my dog

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and this GPS would say when my dog
is sleeping, where my dog is,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
where I can find my dog if it's gone,
stuff like that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
But again if you went Haiti directly after
the earthquake,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
people search for other people in
collapsed building

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
with their bare hands.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So, obviously, we have a lot of
technical solutions for everything.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I can look for my fucking dog in Hamburg
where it is via my app on my iPhone

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but on the other hand, in a disaster area
it's not even possible to search for

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
people who are buried in collapsed buildings.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
There are several reasons for that.
