We presented Archive of Future Commons [http://www.facebook.com/archiveoffuturecommons/].
The Archive will gather publications related to thoughts, practices, and movements which could contribute to the creation of a better collective future. The Archive seeks to be a central depository of past and new knowledge on how we can work together to create a better future. The publications will be collected from around the world, and will be in English as well as various other languages. The Archive a collection of publications which would be shared resources of all members of society in the year 2030.
Post-Museum proposed an intervention in the Kultur Symposium through inserting an Archive of Future Commons pencil+eraser into the symposium tote bag. The pencil+eraser provides an ideological tool which suggesting the gesture of ‘changing’ our future and ‘re-writing’ it. It is a way for the Archive of Future Commons dialogue to be ‘inserted’ into the discourse of the symposium.
