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]. In the workshop we will use a low powered ESP32 micro controller and a environmental sensor to observe non-human or non-living entities.
