Thanks Roberto, it all needs to be defined and expressed. I will progressively organize and add points to the wiki page and invite you to do so too *http://sharewiki.org/en/Nomad_Tribe* I think of a Nomadic Tribe as a swarm moving from TAZ to TAZ ( Temporary Autonomous Zone ) and I think of its support and economy as an approach to develop local economies while gathering resources and funding to purchase land and property in least expensive areas as to redevelop them ( see : http://p2pfoundation.net/Venture_Communism ) /// When I think of "Oasis" ( another name can be used ), I think of a Regional Economy which progressively reduces its dependency towards monopolies. For example, the Leipzig project http://sharewiki.org/en/Leipzig_project is an approach I wish to support as to enable such intention. I imagine it can serve as aggregator for various cultures and distributed flows of intelligence. /// Yes, the http://www.wwoof.org/, or http://www.helpx.net/ ( paying sites ) kind of approach shares a lot with the subcultures I m wish to converge through such kind of neo-nomadic approach. One could also add to these approaches or cultures related to Ecotopia Gathering <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecotopia_gathering>, Rainbow Gatherings <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Gathering>, Hacker Spaces <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_Computer_Club> and Gatherings<http://events.ccc.de/>, Music Festivals, Circus Tribes, Comedian Tribes, Film Making Sets, Permaculture Meetings, Cycling Tribes <http://www.ecotopiabiketour.net/>, ... perhaps also, why not, TAZ tent architecture gatherings ? Some of these can be related to an understanding of "Temporary Autonomous Zones" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporary_Autonomous_Zone :) On Sun, Aug 28, 2011 at 2:09 PM, Roberto Barbagallo <[email protected]>wrote:
I can just say that oasis points already exist, they are located under a practice that is known at the present time as wwoof system. What is the next step? maybe coalition of some farm moving from wwoof to oasis. What nomads, expecially families, need to find in a oasis that would be different from a traditional wwoof setup? education for kids maybe? mind-body healing centers? always the same question: what are OUR needs?

I ve personally lived a hitch hiking nomad lifestyle for a few years, and find a (semi?) nomad approach of interest ( also see : http://nomadology.com )
I am aware that there is at least one "cycling tribe" roaming in southern france.
Potentially

Brainstorming :
Emerging Tribes of (Cycling?) Nomads,
with various "Specializations" and "Missions/Services", while, each individual as entity capable of general/holistic understanding and/co-learning. and the tribe becoming very experienced in "Collective Intelligence" and "Capability for Emergency Response", along stigmergic tools and practices.
Type of potential mission :
Land healing consulting ; Land Permaculture Set up and consulting, Modular ( tent ? ) constructions, set up of post-industrial production infrastructure, complementary finance and currency consulting, ... etc
////
The tribe could be cycling across europe, staying connected to the internet, having "eclaireurs/scouts" charged of future mission preparations, enabling certain decisions to be co-informed through technology and general assemblies, having rotating and self chosen tasks ( external mission tasks, but also self preservation tasks such as operation of food and kitchen, shelter / tent maintainance, bike maintainance, self-learning support, mutual-caring support, etc )
////
A permanently moving tribe, which can stay on missions in certain places, such as "circuses" used to do, while moving from north to southern europe, according to the seasons.
/////
Land would be put to disposal ( for camping - with special kinds of comfortable and light weight "mobile villages" ) by the farmers or communities that wish to welcome the "nomads" and/or employ them for their services.
////
Money earned could go into maintaining the movement of the collective, with surplus invested in setting up "oasis", which are the movements more permanent "bases", to which nomads can return to.
Investments can be made for infrastructure as to increase progressively autonomy from dependencies on monopolistic economic networks / support diversification,
and investments can also be made in the cheapest land ( within potential for ideal context development ) on which value can then be created outside of monopolistic economic networks.
////
Hence a trans-modern approach to semi-nomadism, such as the nomads who trade salt on their camels, going on expeditions, and then returning to their oasis.

Additional Brainstorming :
I also imagine such villages of nomads using "modular" tent like structures, using "tensegrity" and "Parametric Design" with 3d modelling calculations, using data about future terrains that will be used for the temporary village, as to "re-assemble" the "tent village" based on all modular lightweight objects available, potential to include or add local materials and soil for temporary constructions, and calculate a re-design for a temporary village,
of which each of the modular components of the tents, which can also use tensegrity approaches,
are then re-calculated in their position, and where each modular element becomes a "spime" with its own uri ( unique resource identifier ) allocated to the rfid ( magnetic ) tag of the object,
hence making it easy for any of the "builders" to follow assembling instructions from their smart phone, based on the re-assembly plans,
as to re-build customized villages ,
after they have been designed using "parametric design" and generative architecture softwares.
