Gold provides an excellent overview of the current state of personal data privacy (or, increasingly, the total lack of it) and imagines some possible solutions in her video ‘The Alternet': …the Alternet evolved as a superfiction, a creative proposal that blends fiction and real world structures, presenting organisations and the lives of invented …

Malucos de Estrada: the reformation of the hippie movement in Brazil

Imagine the opportunity to show in a film a way of life that few know and able to inspire so many people!

Dreams, art, poetry, cooperation, freedom, revolution, detachment, equality, struggles ... Feelings and actions that are often repressed because of pre-established social standards, but they are intensely experienced by men and women who don a backpack and hit the road.

But who are they? How do they live? What do they believe?

The film "Malucos de Estrada: the reformation of the hippie movement in Brazil" is an unpublished initiative that seeks to enlighten society about the richness of this cultural universe of values and put up for discussion the current process of repression that the artisans are suffering.

The urgency and importance in shedding light on this culture is that their survival and integrity are seriously threatened by social invisibility and by some misunderstanding on the part of public officials about this reality.

We believe that this documentary will be the starting point for the broad recognition of the road freak as specific cultural manifestation. This is a film released on the internet with free access in order that it become a product of society.

This movement is primarily a struggle that we may actually live in a democratic society that coexists with different views, interests and knowledge, maximizing the collective well-being.

Be a part of this initiative with us! Contribute to making the movie and share our page.

Video of the Day: Bittunes – Super Distribution meets CC meets Bitcoin

Video of the Day: Bittunes – Super Distribution meets CC meets Bitcoin | Peer2Politics | Scoop.it

Bittunes is about empowering the end-user. It is about monetization of digital exchange between peers. As this is something which is impossible with traditional currencies, bitcoin was the perfect solution. I had the pleasure of meeting Simon Edhouse, Bittunes’ CEO, in Bitcoin Singapore 2013, and I fell in-love with his project. To use his words, ‘one thing is certain, everything has changed’. Simon has developed a fantastic platform that will allow independent artists to self publish their music, and by empowering their fans, empower themselves. I see great future to Bittunes, and I wish Simon and his family all the best for 2014 and beyond. I had the pleasure of recording an extremely insightful interview with Simon, I hope you enjoy.
