| ====Michka's Transiency==== | ==Michka's notes== |
| |
| I am currently benefiting from the [[http://example.com|Transiency Program]] offered by FoAM. [[http://fo.am/macrotransiency-michka-melo/|Here is]] a short description of my motivations and objectives within this program. | Here is a tentative [[michka:portfolio|portfolio]] of prior research projects, residencies, workshops, trainings and talks I have done, as well as publications I have written or appear in. |
| |
| __Diaries__ | I followed the invitation of Barbara Sher to create an [[michka:explorations|exploration report]], including open-ended and unachevied projects. |
| |
| I periodically update a [[http://transiency-diary.tumblr.com/|Transiency Diary]] where I chronologically pile up content varying from highly theoretical statements to methodological findings, including various quotes, experiment reports and working hypothesis. It may feature more questions than answers, and contributions in the form of comments are most welcome. | Originally, this part of the libarynth was first created as a place to document part of my [[michka:transiency-main-page|transiency]] research in 2013-2014. |
| |
| If you are eager of fresh and crispy content, you can follow me on [[http://twitter.com/elaborateur|Twitter]], or on [[http://facebook.com/michka.melo|Facebook]]. | More recently, I used it to: |
| | * document the project we performed with [[http://zprod.org|Paul Granjon]] on [[michka:research:microbial_fuel_cells|microbial-fuel-cell-powered robotics]]. |
| | * document the two art-science workshops I lead at the Ecole Supérieure d'Arts d'Epinal (ESAL) on [[michka:phenomenes|phenomenes]] and [[michka:sable|sand]]. |
| | * list resources on [[michka:alternative-engineering|alternative engineering]], initially for students from the "Humanities and technology" bachelor in Université Technologique de Compiègne (UTC). |
| | * other partially structured information : you can check the full list of pages of this namespace [[https://libarynth.org/?idx=michka|here]]. |
| |
| Some pictures will be posted on FoAM's Flickr account once in a while. | You can also join [[https://t.me/joinchat/4hYcxso5_QdiM2Jk|my Telegram channel]], register to my aperiodic [[https://us20.campaign-archive.com/home/?u=680472e676559bd625aae5902&id=77460e00a3|newsletter]], or check [[https://www.linkedin.com/in/michka-m%C3%A9lo-16987743/|my LinkedIn profile]], [[https://www.facebook.com/michka.melo|Facebook profile]] or [[https://twitter.com/elaborateur|Twitter feed]]. |
| |
| __Documentation__ | Project sparks that I have in mind these days, contributions welcome: |
| | * [[michka:subsistence|Subsistence]], a tentative inventory of inspiring subsistence strategies used by those who want to live the good life, avoid working to make the powerful & wealthy more powerful & wealthier, and/or contribute to the commons in a non-monetizable way. |
| Some more structured "libarynthic" pages will be updated here as the project progresses. You can already read some contents on the [[michka:Project_definition|Project definition]] process. | * [[michka:games-for-the-future|Games for the future]], a tentative inventory of existing games playfully teaching essentials skills for a better life (with [[https://twitter.com/MikhaelPommier|Mikhael Pommier]]). |
| | * [[michka:entrepreneuriat-libertaire|Entrepreneuriat libertaire]], reflections on a domination-free regenerative entrepreneurship. |
| __References__ | * [[michka:Transition Compass]], a tentative to better understand what roadblocks limit ecologically/socially-driven people to use their full potential to respond to the current disaster we are living. |
| | * How do we measure well-being/quality of life/happiness/meaningfuless felt by a population/society: [[michka:alternatives PIB|Alternatives to GDP]] |
| Here are the links to several articles I consider as [[michka:landmark-papers|Landmark Papers]]. They have played a role in designing the objectives of this Transiency. | * [[michka:lausanne_alternative]], a draft list of Lausanne-based alternative orgs. |
| | * [[michka:loup]], a list of reference addressing the controversy of wolves attacking sheep and other cattle in specific areas. |
| These papers outline inspiring thoughts or actions helping to understand that change is possible, as well as shocking observations and analysis helping to understand better why change is desirable. | * [[michka:technojustesse|Technojustesse]], a draft program on technocriticism 101 for engineers, also sharing meaningful tech-related initiatives. |
| | * [[michka:21engineers|Practical guide for XXIst century engineers]] |
| I will soon start to build a Pearltrees featuring Connected Projects. These are projects I stumbled upon during some online or real-life wanderings, and happened to kind of connect to in the spirit. | * [[michka:victorystories|Victory Stories]], spreading stories of how social movements won. |
| | * Le qui-est-ce de l'ingénierie alternative, ou des personnages des luttes sociales ? |
