We continued to be silent but at work. Here is Recurv! and our currency design self paced workshop. Discount code inside! happeningscommunity.substack… -thank you @OpenCivics for helping us!
Human systems, particularly our economies, have become blocked and distorted. We've created dead-end flows that terminate in landfills rather than cycling back into life. We've constructed artificial scarcity in a world of abundance. Reimagining this design is our work.
@zippy314 It seems that this is a perfect opening to the narrative of how engagement changes when not mediated by centralized platforms and how Moss can shift power dynamics in social spaces.

"Switching costs" are one of the great underappreciated evils in our world: the more it costs you to change from one product or service to another, the worse the vendor, provider, or service you're using today can treat you without risking your business.

ALT A painting of Moses parting the Red Sea, with taerrified and grateful Israelites around his feet and an onrushing army of charioteers in pursuit. Moses has been replaced with a vintage editorial cartoon depicting Uncle Sam as a stern cop holding out a billyclub, on his breast is the crest of the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau. The roiling Red Sea has been overlaid with a US $100 bill.

A reminder, we have a 7-episode review of human history, 'as seen through the eyes of the commons', in French. On Youtube 'live', we have reached the fifth episode, on the current 'commons transition moment'. In the podcast series, we have reached episode 4, on the post-war period.
The closest thing in English, though not organized by chronology but by major author and books, is the O.G Rose series on Youtube:

"Et voilà, déjà le 5ème épisode de notre série d'Entretiens avec Michel, c'est ce soir à 19h30 ici :
youtube.com/watch?v=Yj3fOa7V…
Dans cet épisode intitulé LE MONDE QUI VIENT : PAIR A PAIR, CRYPTOS, LES COMMUNS ? nous revenons au présent.
« Au milieu des années 90, c’est le moment de l’altermondialisme et du mouvement zappatiste, quelque chose émerge, la forme organisationnelle était en train de changer : le pair à pair émerge à ce moment-là. Car l’altermondialisme ce n’érait pas un parti mais, au contraire, une idéologie pluraliste, des gens dans le monde entier organisés en réseau. »
Dans ce cinquième épisode Michel observe et analyse le monde qui vient, les signes, les expériences en cours, tout ce qui émerge à travers la planète et qui invente de nouvelles formes d’organisation humaine, tout ce qui opère un changement réel de paradigme et pourrait préfigurer notre futur : le pair à pair, l’autoorganisation, l’économie contributive, les cryptos... et au coeur la résurgence des communs. Il introduit également la notion de cosmolocalisme comme troisième voie possible.

The narrative of sovereignty is strong. Tech is ready for true pioneers. Few are ready to pay their part of the cost. Entrepreneurs face the challenges of having to fundraise in a very crowded space. Users want all sexy and perfectly resolved before they adopt.
Have you witnessed the constraints the internets current infrastructure brings, have you thought about what @Holochain can offer you?
We just got fueled with our intention of Awakening people's creativity to shape social and economic dynamics! We all can design better systems. Dont settle with what is. Create the new!
To unleash the power of the #commons we need to think Regions that can leverage from their unique flows and assets. Coventina focuses on Currency Design for Regional Basic Needs.
#Gitcoin fam! We got updates for you from our grant. Here is our Karma GAP Milestones and Impact attestation thingy. bit.ly/karmagaprecurv -Is validation what follows? AND we are coming with our first currency workshop next week! Stay tuned!
Friends! @artbrock & @fer_ananda offer a free session this Friday with a provocation "All problems are problems of flow" which leads to how "current-sees" not money are the symbol systems to shape social and economic dynamics. Bring a problem! Test them! bit.ly/summittworks

How to make public goods appeal to degens?
How to replace governments?
Surprisingly, the answer is the same 👀

I did not expect to wake up today to find my article about local economies published on the front page of @hackernoon

If harmony is equal to healthy patterns of flow. Then shaping and enabling flows will create harmony. What is your take?
