Jan. 3: Capitalism and Education
January 1st, 2015 by nós
How can we combat capitalism by radically changing our approach towards education?
What would education be like in a society without the state and without capital?
How can one educate without recreating the systems of hierarchy, obedience to authority and indoctrination that are responsible for the long lasting nature of the capitalist system?
At this workshop we will discuss these ideas and put some of them into practice by teaching each other a simple skill and making zines. Come with thoughts and tools!

Nov. 13: Preserving Vegetables
November 2nd, 2014 by nósApproximate programme:
18:00 (we start boiling vegetables)
19:00 (we start jarring and preserving)
Home Canning!
A technique thought to us by Darja, at her home in Gabrk, Slovenia. (Population +/- 30)
With this process the vegetables can last up to 2 years.
Many people in Slovenia spend their free time growing and harvesting food, preserving and sharing with each other.
Their willingness to do as much as they can themselves, to be productive and generous, is an inspiration. So we would like to share that with you.
If you can, bring:
x Vegetables (for example beets, mushrooms, courgette…)
x Fruits (for example apples, plums, peers, cherries…)
x Clean Jars (You can even boil them.)
You can also boil your vegetables at home and bring them to the workshop ready for jarring.
Please don’t waste food! And share knowledge as much as you can!
Hvala!
