Status Report

Previous camps were CHT6-A and CHT6-B, from November 2018 to March 2019. See 🔗season6-A.

The project's van 🔗trucko was fixed, insured & passed the technical examination ("ITV").

New projects are focusing on expanding CHT's infrastructure, developing new occupational strategies, and expanding the project to other islands of the Canarias.

INFRA: Second Van | LANZA + PC

Found a candidate:
    A white ~1985 Syncro (4x4) Dokka T3. ("Platform Chassis").

SYS+THEORY: Revectorize alliances. | PC

No more alliances based on simulacra.

”Too many college radicals are two-timing punks. The only reason you should be in college is to destroy it.”
― Abbie Hoffman, Steal This Book

______________________

🔗alike page is good, but lacking.
:
    * It needs to merge with 🔗intersub and even 🔗postmarket.
    * Develop "Call-out culture" for anyone involved with, based on distinct re-processed set of values.

Who are really our closest organisations? Are we comrades, or are we "friends"?
(S14, paillard, sqek, pekinpah, Constant vzw - who are they really?)

    * new push for 🔗grants

THEORY: Post-Postmodernist Art | PC + LIVE

Beyond classic-mimetic, modernist, and postmodernist.
Contemporary art is most often whimsical, out-of-context, inconsequential, and not truly engaging the "topics of our time".

Considering the present - environmental, political, ... - situation, this is aesthetically grotesque.

Assemble manifesto and practices:
    * Establish measure of Urgency, and a consequent ethics-politics-aesthetics. 
    * Call-out all the bullshitt.
    * New curatorial strategies - what is Totalist curation?
    * [...]

* [...]



LAND: Birds and Cats | PC + LANZA

#ecology #ornitology

"Feral cats kill an estimated 480 million birds in the US each year"

    * WWF
    * Punctum photographers
    * Island  Ecology  and  Evolution  Research  Group  (IPNA,  CSIC)
    * Archipelago Chinijo
    * [...]

Domestic and semi-wild cats are a direct threat to birds.

* What is the population, and other factors that can be (or are) traced?
* What is the numeric scale of the problem?
    * https://abcbirds.org/program/cats-indoors/cats-and-birds/ 
* What can be done to counter this?
* Are there laws in place, are they respected?
* What is the state of protected areas?
* The cost of pets and pet food:

THEORY | Food Systems & Breadbasket failures

http://www.bu.edu/pardee/the-risks-of-multiple-breadbasket-failures-in-the-21st-century-a-science-research-agenda/
"""According to the UN’s Food and Agricultural Organization (Statistics Division 2016), a relatively small area of the world, 23 percent of total cropland, accounts for a large proportion of total global cereal production, with most of the area devoted to three major cereal crops: maize (70.3 percent), wheat (69.3 percent), and rice (84.5 percent)."""

* What would a MBBF (Multi Breadbasket Failure) look like?

* What would be the dramaturgy of such a collapse?:
    How long into the Sowing-to-Harvest timeline would we realize this?
    How would panic buying play out?
