"Old Irish folklore associates the past with the West, while the future lies in the east. In the vernacular architecture of the countryside, houses turned their back to the west and face east towards the bright future, the rising sun." EASA 2008 - Ireland - easa.antville.org

ADAPTION intro... "adjusting to dramatic shifts in society" id propose the argument that finding how to live sustainably is what matters, and from finding out the theory, putting it into practice. difficult, yes. possible, yes

hijack growing idea... we are talking about the ecological spiritual revolution which has been underway for some while, and came from a lovely discussion in metavilla with Lucien Kroll and our Cuban pirate friends Lucien Kroll: Moments D`Architectures easa.antville.org

from that 2 things are the arguments that make up this pleasent story; 1 - the paradigm shift in society that fritjof capra mentioned www.ecotecture.com (see west to east thinking as base of shift in terms of revolutionary change in worldview, thesis of his book tao of physics - www.amazon.co.uk ) 2 - "the signifigance of the global ecovillage movement", an essay by Ted Turner from EUROTOPIA, directory of intentional communities socialwork.arts.unsw.edu.au

from reading and researching these intros, we will take you to the second part of the project: 2007, a year of ecological spiritual revolution joining 2 bits to the equation: 1- 50 years on from Vinoba Bhave´s (Mahatma Gandhi´s successor) proclamation "let the year 1957 be the year of revolution (a pacifist, sustainable, poverty aleviating one) www.rmaf.org.ph 2- 1936 and the year of the successfull anarchist revolution in the city of Barcelona: Anarchism in Spain (wiki) en.wikipedia.org The Spanish Revolution (1936) struggle.ws

who knows what next year will lead to... presently there are circus occupations of Barcelona´s main square and the tearing down of squatted social centre circus and theatres: La Makabra is being evicted! barcelona.indymedia.org Barcelona: 3 early morning raids on 3 squats, including MAKABRA indymedia.ie

pirate hijacking of Venice Architectural Bienalle, plans underway and preparions being built in the pirate university which is presently based out of Barcelona, but soon to be expanded through the harambee project:

Pirate University (barcelona, but sure to quickly spread) www.universitatpirata.org

HARAMBEE : widening the discussion www.indymedia.ie GLOBAL RADIO NODES ON WSF: wiki.radiolivre.org building up the RADICAL radio network indymedia.ie

this is just to get things going, we have not had time yet to edit and make more clear concise and easy to understand, we hope you can sift through the ideas and links, like the idea and help us, as changing the world does require a fair amount of donkey work, but it pays off: "le pur plaisur d´exister".... so if you want to help us to...

radically change the world

so your babies babies babies.... have somewhere safe, beatiful, healthy, enjoyable to live. please hop onboard the idea and plug into the network...

like all these projects it is an open system, so all are welcome to participate and enjoy...

over and out, back now to the streets
