Iggy Pop about The Stoogees: »We were real communists. We lived in a communal house, we ate the same food at the same time, we shared all money, and when we began to write songs, we shared all authorship.«

¶fuck spaces
operate anywhere and everywhere
(fully nomadic gear)
rent, borrow, mutualize, occupy
in nature, rural, cities
ruins on desertified fields,
postsocialist bomb shelters,
abandoned factories & mine shafts,
forest clearings,
on fiberglass boats,
in volcano calderas,
inherited dachas,
squatted pools
practice, perform, organize, store stuff, live there

¶fuck gear
nomadic, distributed, loud
(Lithium battery arrays, Class D amps)

play what's available - cheap, modified, "beater"
learn to build, destroy and fix everything

practice different works with different cells

smaller ad hoc consolidating to bigger units
our cars, vans, trucks, buses, and boats
