+ | Cities are becoming ever more significant habitats for humans in the future. Envisioning the future of the city can bring forth significant assumptions on our individual and social identity. What kind of paths can city development take? What kinds of social movements will it encompass? What will be our place in the city we will live in 20 years from now? Who will be and what we will do? | ||

+ | Minks Scenario | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | The mayor of Minsk was a well famous | ||
+ | |||
+ | The mayor from Minsk was the first foreign guest in the show. The crew of the first Indian mission to Mars came to Minsk one day for a very meditatized event invited by the mayor. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The mayor has the Bollywood support but also the one of space nostalgics in Belarus. He started in Minsk the first space art scholarship for unprivileged kids and helped to establish a space/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Minsk became a tech oriented society connected with the Baltic tech hub, but left aside the social problems of the city among communities that do not interact with space industry. The communities fit with a European opinion of what a society should be rather then the Bollywood ideal of space industry and the supporting infrastructure on Earth. | ||
+ | |||
+ | There is a group of “radical disintermediationalists” protesters against centralized technology, mediation of experience and for direct experience of reality. mostly average citizens and post-media hackers and trickters. they try to hijack the TV broadcasts of the mayor and his Indian guests and reduce access to the event of the fans in India; The protesters created the first physical protest in years. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Other groups are also trying to claim attention during the spectacle, e.g. protesting against the failed re-forestation initiative to protect the city from floods caused by the melting permafrost. The authorities and specially the Mayor promoted it as a safe and eco solution but not as complete and successful and the river crossing Minsk is still a threat. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The disintermediation society … | ||
+ | |||
+ | The direct experience of reality ; any tech that puts layers between you and reality is not to be trusted, has to be replaced, destroyed. Technology destroys reality and create an electro-magnetic pole that destroys the tech use in that day. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The low probable high impact protest led to the freezing of routine life in the city. The Protests gets people to occupy the transport infrastructure (metro, electric cars, etc) Attempt to disinter mediate the transport infrastructure by using metro carriages for parties, blocking other users. ‘Mediation’ shows that there is no available transport (ie. Electric cars, busses, etc). aim to get people stay home with friends, join parties and avoid the ‘mediated spectacle’ of Bollywood. | ||
