MoneyLab#2 Economies of Dissent

3-4 dec 2015, Pakhuis de Zwijger Amsterdam

MoneyLab starts with the conviction that we need to experiment with initiatives that allow for the distribution and exchange of value in different ways. Or rather, we call for experimentation. The economic mire we’re in is not merely a technological problem waiting for a technical solution or ‘best practice’. Our creative interventions must be considered an exercise in future world building, spanning the political, legal, social, psychological, economical and technical. An important first step is to stand up and demand the democratization of global finance.
