Since January 2019, IRI has been involved in the CO3 project (EU Horizon2020), which aims to analyze, criticize and adapt digital technologies to make it a new urban knowledge milieu. This critical work began on February 19 as part of a workshop on the blockchain around Michel Bauwens of the Peer-to-Peer Foundation.
We are now pursuing it with other potentially reflexive and empowering technologies:
1) a social network articulated with functions of geolocation, augmented reality and categorization;
2) tools for deliberation on urban practices, knowledge to cultivate and indicators to use.
More generally, it is a question of leaning on the principles of the general organology carried by the IRI and by the international network Digital Studies and by the Real Smart City project to develop a new urban intelligence vis-à-vis the creating an economy based on the commons and the contribution – the contributory economy.
As a first step, and as an extension of the activities of the Contributing Learning Territory program, we would like to associate you with a co-design group focused on the needs of the Plaine Commune territory, particularly in the field of Urban Modeling, Energy and habitat, care and nutrition and metabolisms and urban cycles.
The first meeting of this group will be held on May 21 at IRI with a morning presentation of C03 technologies and an afternoon of co-design of new urban practices and services using these technologies.
