Bootcamp Deniesa I – Festivalweek – 11-05-11

To Boot = To Restart. When your computer halts (operating system), you’ll probably reboot the system. The same is happening to our society: it is halted. Time to reboot it. And to change the software!

“From Economy to Flowconomy” – “The survival of the Fittest has Ended, the Revival of the Goodest has only just Begun…” [Quotes from Deniesa's Manifest]

11th of May 2011 we just do it. Seven Days of Realization. With about 30 to 70 Deniesa community members (Dutch and / or global, we hope for people from all over the world), we head for a forest or so and set up a campsite. In these seven days we LIVE the new ecosystem (see Deniesa’s Manifest for more info on this, will be available soon in English too).

“Where the Children of Tomorrow Dream Away… with You and Me”

…

Imagine

• You arrive at the camp gate… it says: “Welcome in Deniesa – The New Society”
• You leave the old society garbage behind you. The rules, the fuzz, stress, lying of leaders, ego’s, etc.
• You get your playing card. With on it your role for the festival (only if it suits you). De baker man. The carpenter. The Artist. The software engineer. And… the thief (we have to test what happens withour rules and lawyers, no?)
• You get your new money (we ultimately aim for a society without money). A value system (Goodvalue Trading / Chivi) without intrinsic inflation and debt is an intermediary step.
• We boot our society. The game starts. We start to make the bread, play the music and govern the place. We sleep in our buses (cars), tents and eat in a combined tippi. Fire, guitars, singing, joy.
• We grow our own food… do our trading and creation. (offcourse we have to simulate this a bit).
• No rules, we have values though. And guidelines. Outlaw but Invalue.

During the festival we make movie recordings. Afterwards we do some evaluation. Learn. And let the world show our findings and atmosphere. And maybe write a festival ‘book’ about it.

A next step will be the establishment of permanent Deniesa bootcamps all over the world. People will just start living there. Build there own (often wooden) houses. Via (music) festivals, selling of our books, donations and sponsor actions we collect money. To make the earth free from possession. We buy ground and it will be ‘owned’ by the Deniesa Foundation. And the Deniesa Foundation is nobodies property. So it is nomandsland… People within the Deniesa community may live there. Each ‘freelief place / town’ will have its own guardian(s), which hold a line with the global Deniesa organization.

And thus Deniesa, the new world comes to life. Step by step. The old world crumbles to dust. These new townships will be the hope for people who lose there homes in the ‘economy’. Or are just sick of living there. And these townships will be examples on how we can live together with eachother peacefully. And in harmony with the earth. Traditional towns can change,. if they wish… Trading will be done as much as possible without ‘money’. We’ll take care of eachother. We do not need insurances. We’ll be the teachers of our children ourselves. We don’t want education as we know it. We’ll produce our food locally. Much will be done in the Transition Town manner.

And thus we create our own new ecology… Heaven = Have non. From Iconomy to Weconomy.
