    Description

    I have a vision of a space that becomes a base for creatives that are holding the question of what wants to emerge when we slow down together?
    And interdisciplinary space where worlds come together and everyone is invited to bring their own piece of the puzzle in the complex navigational moment we find ourselves in.
    Its nested in an old village with Palaeolithic roots.

    One of the aspects that calls me into this work is the need that I see for unstructured spaces for experimentation and creation. For a creative experimentation in how do we educate ourselves for the present. I feel we need to come together and hold space to the overwhelm that we feel.

    I'm doing this here as a call for the others, to come together, and to see what emerges.

    The teachers that have inspired me, and will be guiding in our explorations are:
    Bayo, Vannesa, Dougald, Joanna
    The work that reconnects
    Jhon, Vandanna, Bill, Peter - Somatic Experiencing

    It would be nice to have spaces that create the conditions that allow for the potential that is within to express.


    At the same time I feel its nice to do things with our hands to physically create.

    Like we need to figure out how to grow trees, this will be a very useful knowledge to have. Lots of them in a cost efective way.
    Can we come together and do it? Syntropic, nursery, grafting, air layering, cuttings.

    How do we grow mushrooms, there are plenty of caves that have a stable temp and high humidity, can this work, how to test?

    The idea being if we can feed ourselves we can make the project more sustainable, and also replicable.

    Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

    This in within a village where there are mostly old people, that are quite open and have a lot to share. The interacting with the locals is a very important element, there is a lot to be learned, they are the ones who remember how life used to be, and i think is time for intergenerational dialog.
    You can learn about the contemporary challenges in rural Italy, The visions and the dreams, and how village life is. How the relationship to land is, you get to see the abandonment, how its been treated, and the difficulties that farmers face. Maybe also where they come from in their way to approach the challenge. and the past histories that have shaped this particular piece of land.

    We are renovating the building that will host the vision. As we do we are also invited to move from full presence and attention and honouring to our internal processes as this is the foundational work. There is preparing surfaces to be painted, sanding furniture and doors, moving stuff around.
    We have a retired builder coming in and supporting from time to time. So the work can be done to a high level.
    We will work only in the mornings 7 to 11.30 with a 30 min break.
    Then the invitation is to explore what emerges in relation with ourselves each other and the community around.

    Lunch will be prepared together, and then we hold open space for 2 to 3 hours for different self organised initiatives.
