¶INFRA: Second Van | LANZA + PC
Found a candidate:
A white ~1985 Syncro (4x4) Dokka T3. ("Platform Chassis").

What would it be?:
* A containerized tiny-house platform?
* A food truck?
* A to-distribute copy of 🔗trucko ?

Who are really our closest organisations? Are we comrades, or are we "friends"?

Assemble manifesto and practices:
* Establish measure of Urgency, and a consequent ethics-politics-aesthetics.
* Call-out all the bullshitt.
