Introduction
This place is intended as a placeholder for resources linked to a City-as-a-grid model, where primal needs generation and distribution (food, energy, chores, computing, essential jobs...) as well as commonly needed dispenses (tools sharing, maintenance fees, ...) would be distributed in a geographical way.
Notions such as a part-time chore concept (citizen participation), peer to peer learning, alternative money or the implications of 3D replication/printing technologies or of immersive telepresence (enabling telework) will be studied keys.
A wider goal for this project is to minimize the global cost of the infrastructure without sacrificing it's scalability, and to consider this model applicable in a natural transition from immaterial goods towards a parallel, goods-based, geographical community.
