These are dark times for the economy, as offshore finance wreaks havoc in
the very fabric of cities and communities, and crypto-companies find their
own tax havens. But the economy is not only in the hands of faceless
corporations and cryptocurrency speculators.
<https://networkcultures.org/moneylab/> MoneyLab explores the imaginaries of
artists, researchers, activists, and geeks in search for other possible
economies, and interrogates a different financial discourse. It asks: can we
use technology critically to support alternative values of cooperation and
commoning in a world that is dominated by individualism and competition?

MoneyLab #8 features examples far from the mainstream media spotlight. It
zooms in on the effects of offshore finance and explores counter-experiments
in the realms of housing, care work, and blockchain technology. Can
self-organised care networks strengthen neighbourhoods? What would social
housing look like if it was turned into the cornerstone of the economy? Who
is building local systems that can stand up against the financialisation of
housing?

MoneyLab #8 sheds light onto radical strategies for self-organisation, and
pushes on towards new and collective futures for resilient local
communities.

Attendance is free of charge, registration
