Associated Initiatives

Via Bernardo Gutiérrez:

  • Before everything started, there was a huge movement in networks, from Anonymous forums to some networks againts Ley Sinde (Internet law). I was created Red Sostenible and the wiki nolesvotes (don´vote for them)
  • The non comercial network of the revolution is N-1.cc (made with copy left)
  • La Tabacalera is an open code cultural-social center. Everything began there one year before 15M. It is an space ruled by the commons, in the center of Madrid. There is no boss no public money.
  • In the Squares, during those weeks, they created a new model of society and everything was prepared and decided with wikis and discussions, such as Propongo
  • 15M was the first Hybrid Revolution. They created many tools to make the link between the street and the net. See Twittómetro, a tool for voting with hashtags in the same discussions they had in the squares.
  • There is a hashtag called Stopredadas, and in 20 minutes, thousands of people go to prevent evictions. See also STOP Deshaucios and
  • bookcamping.cc and videocamping.cc are collective digital libraries. From the square to the cloud. Every person can add a book, documentary
  • Democracia 4.0, demo4punto, about insuring real democratic voting
  • 15m.cc is a collective book and documentary about 20 people who participated in the movement

Jerome Roos:

"it’s unmistakable now that the Earth upon which they stand is trembling. Outraged at a world that perpetuates injustice and that steadily leads itself to ruin, the people are starting to make a stand. If you listen closely, you can hear their roar emanating from the streets down below. If you look hard, and you are willing to see, you will witness a powerful benevolent force rising up from below, spreading its arms like wings of fire and crying out in indignation at the out-of-touch business class above. They are ready to reclaim a long-lost childhood dream and take to the skies — breaking the laws of nature to write a new chapter in the history of mankind."
