Paper Ledger based Social Credit

On the 12th of September we will meet at the Decentrale to discuss strategies for the implementation of the Kong and use of faircoin in our respective places. During that meeting we also want to organise an information day to encourage the use of these alternative payment and exchange systems. The Kong is a mutual credit system accounted for on paper, with a form of basic income and denoted in Fairo. It would be great if many of you can join us to develop further local and permacircular economy.

Le 12 septembre, nous nous réunirons à la Décentrale pour discuter des stratégies possibles pour instaurer le Kong et l'utilisation du faircoin dans nos lieux respectifs. Au cours de cette réunion, nous voulons également organiser une journée d'information pour encourager l'utilisation de ces systèmes alternatifs de paiement et d'échange. Le Kong est un système de crédit mutuel comptabilisé sur papier, avec une forme de revenu de base et indiqué en Fairo. Ce serait formidable si beaucoup d'entre vous pouvaient se joindre à nous pour développer davantage l'économie locale et permacirculaire.

Journée Anti Pub

Car la publicité s'impose à nous par un matraquage de chaque instant. Elle pollue nos esprits en nous aveuglant. Elle dissimule les conditions réelles dans lesquelles les marchandises qu'elle vante sont produites et occulte les conséquences sociales et écologiques de notre hyper-consommation. Son objectif est de nous pousser à l'acte d'achat par tous les moyens et en tous lieux, quitte à mettre en danger notre intégrité physique. Par ses techniques de manipulation, elle court-circuite notre entendement, stimule nos instincts les moins nobles, assèche notre imaginaire et voudrait nous faire croire que le bonheur dépend nécessairement de notre pouvoir d'achat. Exposition, projection du film, débats, repas et du musique. Le tout à prix libre.

September 22 - 23, @Décentrale

FairHackathon from May 31st to June 9th, as part of St-Imier 2019


From May 26th to June 12th we'll gather on Mont-Soleil to work on building tools for the emerging fair ecosystem. During these days we aim to reset base around a collective development roadmap for the next 2-3 years. Your presence is important, as we will agree on a common path, where possible, so when we are back home, we continue working on the same synergetic line, making progress more efficient for everyone.

Of central importance in this will be the FairHackathon during the days of May 31st to June 9th, where we focus on the broadening our collective understanding of the key technologies in our software stack and hack together on improvements and developing our skills peer to peer. We'll share knowledge about how to build and enhance the wallets software and how to develop applications around them with the available libraries and APIs.

In the days before and after that hackathon, we focus more on the application needs and feature requirements which will help manifest the best flow for people participating in the fair ecosystem. This will include the models and solutions for aspects such as achieving translocal economic fairness, grassroots governance and strengthening the web of trust in the fair economy.

Anybody with a shared interest to help transform society towards embracing a fair ecosystem is welcome to join us during these days. There are no special skill requirements, as we will help each other to enhance our skills peer to peer. Besides poeple with technical skills, participants that are more intersted in the usability and conceptual functionality are equally welcome to join us.

This is an opportunity for you to get more developers working with the code you have been developing and it is an opportunity to get broader support to help create the tools you feel have been missing.

The tech topics we will be covering include:
  • Faircoin: Social wallet, Coopshares, Coopshares wallet, Payment gateways (ERPnext, Woocommerce, ...), working with FairCoin related wallets, libraries and APIs
  • Faircoop: Use Farcoin, Fair Market (as "openbazaar"), OCP/Shroom/CommonsPub
  • Maintenance, sysadmins and backups access and strategy
  • Distributed backends, dev, staging & production environments management and servers provisioning
  • Developing new proof of concept apps building on our available software stack and APIs
We will also coordinate some global online working times for remote participation. Which topics are covered on each day will be adjusted to the interest and desired focus of the participants present on any given day. We may split into two or more groups at times to work on different subjects the same day.

If you are interested to join this FairHackathon, please fill in the form here and you will receive more detailed information:

Tools for a Self-Empowered Culture, May 26 - June 12, 2019
This years gatherings will be around the topic of designing and developing the tools we need to make self-empowered culture work better.

Throughout these meetings, we expect to re-settle basis for our development plan for the next 2-3 years, so your presence is important. We'd like to agree on a common path where possible, so when we are back home, we continue working on the same synergetic line, making progress more efficient for everyone.



The 2019 gatherings will start on May 26th and will go on until at least June 12th.

Agenda: (français/english)

26th May - 5th June:

Interactive Art exposition, Espace Noir
DJTAL: Artiste Gilet Jaune
RAMA: Hackactiviste et principal créateur de la webapp DelDj

Venez participer à la création de l’art d'aujourd'hui, ainsi qu'à la politique de demain!

Et si l'expérience de l'artiste dessinateur ou du peintre en apparence si solitaire pouvait devenir non seulement collaborative, participative mais aussi accessible à toutes et à tous de façon immédiate et simple. La puissance du "beau", du mystique, du tribal... bref l'expérience de la machine ludique interactive: le Totémizateur. Ce dernier, une création de peinture vidéo trippante conçu par Djtal Humain, vous donnera un autre regard sur les métiers de l'Art Destinatoire, en sachant capter vos compétences, vos dispositions ou prédispositions à l'expression audiovisuelle. Par de simples tracés dans le sable et la reconnexion avec l'un des plus ancestrales gestes d'écriture humain sublimé par la puissance de calcul d'un ordinateur et une playlist électro de bonne facture, un nouveau paradigme de la créativité peut s'ouvrir à vous: un voyage au cœur d'une esthétique en constante mutation. 

Aussi dans un autre volet de l'exposition vous pourrez découvrir le travail destinatoire-papier du Digital Humain frère djumeau du Djtal, dont le geste consiste à fusionner divers langues en mode “lego". Dans une forme graphique absolument subréaliste les mots, les lettres, les symboles occupent et colorent l'espace de la feuille. Tout cela afin de concevoir une langue géopoétik capable de rivaliser avec la Novlangue Technocratik du moment (le Désespéranto!?). Un nouvel armement sémiologik, syntaxik, conceptuel est possible et nécessaire ou vital. Vous pourrez peut être participer directement ou indirectement au projet néopolitik du Décapitalisme Articulturel lancé en 2018-2019 au cœur du mouvement des Gilets Jaunes et découvrir sa dimension astroéconomik avec les premières pages du manuscrit oridjnal du Livre Jaune de Tetsuo Nakamoto - petit frère caché de Satoshi Nakamoto - engagé dans la lutte finale aux côtés du Grand Jaujaune et découvrir le système monétaire officiel complet papier des GJ : les Billets Jaunes évidemment convertibles en Djtos.

Découvrez également la webapp DelDj, afin d’unir la création visuelle avec la création musicale et parfaire cette expérience synergique. 

26th May:

Vernissage: Interactive Art exposition, 15:00, Espace Noir
Documentaire J'veux du soleil, 16:00, Espace Noir
Table ronde et discussion au sujet du mouvement des Gilets Jaunes, 17:45, Espace Noir

Building Fair Circular Economy, Décentrale

How do we best extend and curate the web of trust that is the market participants of the fair economy. What are preconditions to be considered "fair", which are the merchants that we know to be fair accordingly and which economic links can we manifest between them.

Glocal Governance Model - Case in point: FairCoop, Décentrale

In this workshop we will be looking of ways to apply glocal governance models to the needs and circumstances of the FairCoop community. FairCoop's focus isn't governance but the development of a global grassroots fair economy. As it aims to achieve its goal, it however needs to build the corresponding governance structures. We want to see how the models we develop can help in this context and how this practical example can help develop our models.
fair.coop

FairCoin ecosystem and Fairo exchange rate review gathering, Décentrale

We aim to review the concept of exchange rates between the "Fairo" purchasing power peg, FairCoin and other currencies. The Fairo is intended to be a reference point for purchasing power value in the emerging fair economy. We are defining an ecosystem of consensus based exchange rates in a web-of-trust, creating dynamics for a Nash Equilibrium for a cooperative, fair economy. We'll discuss and further develop the proposal of using this reference point and aim to agree on a first consensus rate.

31st May – 9th June:

Hackathon at the Décentrale

We meet to discuss the current status of different tools in the FairCoop ecosystem, how to improve these tools and to work together on progress with these developments. The program will be adapted to the participants and their skills. We will organize together the daily schedules, which will not only include the working program but also food shopping, preparing meals, cleaning and social activities. Participants will be discussing and working on task ranging from system administration to the various software stacks of the FairCoop ecosystem, covering different levels of experience and programming languages, graphics work and conceptual discussions of use cases.

08:30-10:00 Breakfast
10:00 Planning the topics and working groups
10:30-13:30 Working
13:30 Lunch

4th June:

Video conference with @jytoumit from Duniter on theoretical aspects of the currency, 10:00, Décentrale
"Duniter is a cryptocurrency software, which means it is a software providing the ability to create currencies. Duniter is different from other cryptocurrency softwares you may know (Bitcoin, Litecoin, Peercoin, ...) for 2 main reasons : its currency code includes the concepts of a Universal Dividend and Web of Trust; but also its Blockchain code, which is far more energy efficient, getting rid of the massive waste of energy introduced by Bitcoin."
