On Constructing Convivial Tools

Marko Pogačar, Srećko Horvat, Carmen Weisskopf (!Mediengruppe Bitnik)

A multiplicity of social experiments and practices of community building have been arising lately across the world. These new institutions already form a network that explores and enacts forms of mutual aid, pirate care (care practices that do not align with social conventions of productivity and efficiency) and self-organisation, a social autonomy that, instead of separation, fosters the community connections that are useful in times of planetary crisis, but also for creating conditions for a "good life“ in face of the ongoing and deepening climate crisis, neoliberal destitution and war as permanent state of affairs. While heterogeneous and with different backgrounds and aspirations, one commonality is the attempt to build "convivial tools" . In this conversation about those forms of conviviality, we are joined by the artist duo !Mediengruppe Bitnik, writer Marko Pogačar and philosopher Srećko Horvat, one of the co-founders of ISSA, the Island School of Social Autonomy, a community project established on the island of Vis, Croatia.
