This open camp format is being developed
by Platoniq, bearing in mind the needs of communities and agents
working in cultural and/or social fields, using new media in a low
budget/low tech context. As a temporary occupation, the CPPP vindicates
the reappropiation and re-politization of public spaces, taking
debates, discussions and
ideas to the street. As a net event, the camp promotes the use and
appropiation of mass media technologies and language, as a way to
improve the diffusion and exchange of ideas, projects and experiences.
In this first of an ongoing series of temporary camps, the design
and construction of the camp was developed in collaboration with
students of the University of Antioquia in a workshop organizad
by Platoniq using Open Source tools, recycled/reused material, low
cost technologies, tactical media strategies and a next to nothing
budget.
The contents presented in the CCCP are related to the local free
culture scene, independent digital media and the existing networked
communities in in Medellin. The presentations were held and organized
in a collective and participative way, using a mail list and a wiki,
with the agents or representants of these groups, and were attended
by the general public present in the square the day of the presentation
and on the net, via audio and video streaming.
This project was made with the collaboration of the Spain Embassy
in Bogota and the University of Antioquia.
