km 21.0: An "Utopian Toolbox" –– Lecture and Discussion with the participation of Niels Boeing, Franz Công Bùi e.a., km 21.0

May I have another utopia? -- Which kind of utopia do you like?

Socialisms again? Che Guevara's new man? Or do you like a real capitalist utopia (if this is still possible)? Could it be some sort of technical transhumanism? Well, it is difficult! Perhaps, we're starting from scratch again! Thinking, what are the must-haves of an utopia, and what are the no-gos -- on the strength of past experience. In effect, we do need an "utopian toolbox" first: How do I tinker utopia? Which tools do I in need?

The quests of km 21.0: Understanding capitalism. Is there an alternative? Is it the internet? Is the globe evolving to a technosphere? Is the globalisation to hot to handle? Is utopia out of date? What can today's political activism come up to? Do human beeings share the same dreams? What do we know anyway? Can we make the world a better place?

Niels Boeing , born 1967, journalist und former DIE WOCHE head of the "Wissenschaft und Technik" department, is one of the initiators of km 21.0. Together with Jens Uehlecke he is running bitfaction.com,a web platform dedicated to all aspects of the "all-new 21st century technosphere".
