A platform for thought open to anyone interested in exploring the relationship between what is common and society as a mechanism for change.
Think Commons is an Ambient Intelligence Network, a platform for thought open to anyone interested in exploring the relationship between what is common and society as a mechanism for change.  It does its work in the form of streaming videos and meetings that stir up debate and spread knowledge in networks.  It is a transmedium that shifts from one medium to another and supersedes the dichotomy of the physical versus the digital; it is a new dimension of "glocal" connection for the exchanging of opinions about everything related to what is common to us, free culture, open data, open government and collective creation.  It is built around light open systems that has found its most valuable resource in the construction of social networking (Network Thinking).  This session, The Offffice Bunch, is a look at the work done by the collective Zoohaus over the past years on their project  Inteligencias Colectivas.  It is focused on the need to legitimize very specific informal constructive processes through the communication channels in which they are not normally represented.  During this meeting they will try to multiply the points of view expressed by the speakers, counting the projects and giving a voice to many agents who are not normally invited to the negotiating table.  Using very precise situations as a starting point- ones where very specific constructive processes and people with first names and last names come into play- we will try to draw conclusions that allow us to talk about technology and city construction.  For the first time at Think Commons, a hybrid session will be held- one that mixes streaming video with live discussions.  For this purpose a space dedicated to debate and conversation between all event participants has been designed.
