Broth brewing

We’re combining a dash of theory, a sprinkle of history with discussion, practical know-how and at least a pinch of the imagination needed for recommoning all that has been enclosed through an era of hyper individualism, market extension and exploitation. We’ll do this through making, play, reimagining and re-storying the world around us and what we conceive of as possible. To give you a flavour, here are some of the sessions cooked up so far:

Community Economies and School of Pluriversal Futures - Atlas Arts, Skye

Stories from the archives and frontlines (Skye - Amazon)

Remix the Commons (European network)

Commons 101

Fomenting Fermenting

Urban enclosure

Grindbygg Construction

Zine making with Glasgow Zine Library

Somatics

Feminist Encounters of a DIY Kind: Crafting Divination Cards

New enclosures - the new era of minerals and gold extraction

You can get the full backstory over here on the Future Natures page.

Each day is served with plenty of time for gabbing - the gravy or the sauce of all gatherings - and will close with collective sense making and discussion. With this in mind we’re encouraging folks offering to stay with us for as much of the gathering as possible. Rather than cherry pick and go. We understand that won’t be possible for everyone. This is to attempt to create conditions for the practices and knowledges we make between us through the course of shared experiences and discussions - through reflecting on the overarching themes together and exploring what further potentials lie in our efforts when we lean into practices of commoning and reclaiming our world from enclosure and extraction - online and off. 

With this in mind we’ll also be encouraging those who are situated in a group first to come along - reflecting the original intention that this seeds and cross pollinates practices across Scotland. 

Otherwise, if your interests or work is in this territory or related somehow - please come along.
