**Kunlabora, ephimeral projects kooperative @ Calafou*

One week building appropriate machines and technologies. We propose 4
different projects and depending on the registration of the participants
we will carry out two or three projects in parallel during the week. We
will work about 6 hours max each day and the rest of the time we will
hang out, dream, conspire, sleep and dance among others.

We want to give a boost to projects with which we are working and that
due to lack of time, resources and/or knowledge, we cannot develop
everything we would like to. We want to open the code and the doors of
calafou to work together on 4 proposals that we are excited about and
that we consider necessary for the development of collective
infrastructures for social movements and all communities that seek to
build autonomy and develop appropriate technologies. Projekto Kunlabora
works collaboratively from software, hardware and wetware, creating
techniques, machines and devices.

We imagine a self-financed event, in which all the participants
contribute with resources in order to gather and learn together how to
develop these projects. When we say self-financed, we mean that all the
productive and reproductive work is supported by the contributions and
volunteer work of the people that coordinate and participate to this
event. We do not count on any grant or financial aid to organize the
event. This also means that if you register for the event, it will be
important that you send us the money for your subscription before the
event takes place so that we can buy everything we need (from the
materials for the machines to the food).
Precious plastic

We are building the precious plastic machines for recycling plastic.
There are four machines: the first breaks down plastic to little pieces
and the others can make different shapes from it. We will try to have
the first machine ready for the event and concentrate on building a
second one during the event that can “make things” from recycled plastic.
Book scanner

We have a lovely book scanner from memory of the world . We contact the
participants of the last Hack the Biblio event in Calafou and ask them
if they are still interested in building a book scanner to share in
communities. We can also go through a scanning and OCR development party
for liberating some great orphan books and fanzines. Great for people
that like to say indoor and pay significant attention to details :-)
River contamination

We will investigate ways of collecting and analise environmental data to
monitor the contamination in the Anoia river around Calafou. There is
already a time lapse camera installed on the high bridge that takes
periodic pictures of the river. We have ideas for solving the
contamination of the river and we would like to know yours too.
Wind turbine

Ever wanted to convert the wind's kinetic energy into electrical energy?
If you are into this type of technology, we will build a vertical wind
turbine based on the Ugrinsky turbine and its power generator. The rotor
will be made out of recycled materials and simple fabricated elements.
