Zoöp

"Zoöp" is an experimental model for organizations to transition towards ecological justice - by not only preaching, but radically practicing it. In a Zoöp, non-humans have an equal voice next to humans, on all levels of the organization and its decision-making. As the initiators describe it: “Zoöp is short for Zoöperation: coöperation with zoë – (Greek for ‘life’) Together with other Zoöps we work towards the transformation of our economy into a regenerative human-inclusive ecosystem, a network of exchange of matter, energy and meaning that supports all bodies in their existence”. ^{[Zoöp manifesto]}

Zoönology: Observing & Sensing

The name of this workshop, "Zoönology", is the combination of technology and zoë. It may seem paradoxical to combine computation and the model of Zoöp as computation depends on the extraction of finite resources. Therefore, as we make the connection during the workshop by making, the question arises to whether computing and network technologies could have a place in regenerative, human-inclusive, reciprocal ecosystems ^[zoop.earth].

Planning:

Week 1: (7th of February)

* Introduction in to the ESP32 micro controller & sensors
* Picking your environmental sensor for coming weeks
* Research your sensor

Week 2: (14th of February)

* Connecting your sensor to the Lolin D32 Pro
* Displaying sensor values on a local captive portal

Week 3: (21st of February)

* Finishing your captive portal

Week 5: (7th of March)

* Field testing

Week 6: (14th of March)

* Extracting sensor values from the field test
* Documenting findings on the captive portal

Week 7: (21th of March)

No class

Week 8: (28th of March)

* Finishing up the captive portal
