「"What is it that we want? What is our project?" The good thing is we have no program. We are creating tools of freedom. First is the obvious: to meet our basic necessities. But the process of finding solutions to meet our basic needs leads us to develop tools that make us free. For me, that's the meaning of autonomy. If you start to think about what constitutes autonomy, and you then start to discuss the notions of autogestión, self-sufficiency, web­-like articulations, noncommercial exchange of goods, horizontal orga­nizing, and direct democracy, you eventually end up asking yourself, "If we achieve all these things, will we then be autonomous?" Autonomous from what? No. If one day we achieve true autonomy, we won't be au­tonomists or autonomous, but will, in fact, be free.」

Feminists, we can learn a lot from the Horizontalidad movement

here's a link to a pdf of a book that directly quotes interviews with many people about how Horizontalidad has been transforming movement in Venezuela

Bajo tu desnudez de arena Bajo tu inmóvil horizontalidad sentida Como un río o un mar de límite preciso En mis manos que como llama te acarician.

"Horizontalidad is a tool arising from necessity. And this tool is an opportunity, an opportunity for something better. 

No one was obeying some ideological command. People simply met on a street corner in their neighborhood, with other neighbors who had par­ticipated in the cacerolazos. For example, in my assembly, in the neigh­ borhood of Colegiales-and I know many other cases-someone simply wrote on the sidewalk, in chalk, "Ncighbur let's meet here Thursday night. " Period. Who wrote this ? No one knows. In the first meeting there were maybe fifteen people, and by the next week it was triple that. Why did it increase in this way? It wasn't an ideological de­ cision, or an intel­ lectual, academic, or political one. It's like asking why people went out to cacerolas. It was the most spontaneous and elemental thing, to go out in the street and meet others on the corner. It isn't that there was a deci­sion to be horizontal--it's not that there was a decision to use direct democracy as if someone had just thought it up. It wasn't a decision. We simply came together with a powerful rejection of all we knew. A strong rejection of political parties and their structures, a strong rejection of all those who represented the state or who wanted to occupy positions in the state. We made a specific decision that we are going to do things for ourselves. 

To understand this phenomenon requires more than calling it " direct democracy." Naming it is an interpretation. To call this new relationship direct democracy is technically correct, but "direct democracy" wasn't in people's vocabulary back then. The initial vocabulary was simply: Let's do things for ourselves, and do them right. Let's decide for ourselves. Let's decide democratically, and if we do, then let's explicitly agree that we're all equal here, that there are no bosses, that we don't want bosses, and that no one can lead us. We lead ourselves. We lead together. We lead and decide amongst ourselves. Someone said, this is horizontal, and well, yes this is horizontal because it's not vertical. We don't want bosses, and because of this it isn't vertical, but it isn't part of any theory of hori­zontalidad or direct democracy. Like the cacerolazo, no one invented it. That was a way to protest. It just happened. We met one another on the corner and decided, enough! Enough of this, let's start everything anew. Let's invent new organizational forms and reinvent society. "

Elementos comunes en los valores de las organizaciones distribuidas

Solo unas notas que tomé agrupando los valores de algunas de las más perspicuas organizaciones distribuidas en la red (Github, Automattic, Buffer…). Me pareció interesante y me hizo pensar, así que decidí compartirlo. Elementos comunes en los valores distribuidos

Horizontalidad y apertura para ser más feliz y más productivo en el trabajo. WordCamp México

Como decíamos ayer, los amigos de WordCamp México han contado conmigo para una charla sobre Horizontalidad y Aprendizaje para ser más feliz y más productivo. Y estoy muy contento por varias cosas.
