The piece also serves to outline the framework of the whole FoP RoP project (FoP RoP = Forces of production, relations of production).<br>
<br>
> The (under-developed) heart of the project is a ‘pattern language’ for P2P-commoning. The vocabulary of patterns is yet to be installed (there’s an outline list of working titles, derived from Bollier & Helfrich). But there’s quite a bit of work on the architecture that’s appropriate to this kind of experiential, maker-activist framing. This includes thoughts on diverse approachs to platforming in a pluriverse of political-cultural formations<br>

> And the interweaving - in a commons-of-commons - of commons of material provision and dependency (including money and software code), commons of labour-power (including stories and sciences) and emotional commons.<br>
> <br>
> A major strand is work on making 'a living economy', being carried out within/by a book collective gathered during 2018, in honour of economist Robin Murray. Not a lot in the FoP RoP website at present, but more to come over coming months, as work on the book gets into gear. For example, stuff around literacy of ‘the heart-mind’ will be developed as a contribution in a stream of work on ‘formacion’ for venturing in the living economy. And there’ll be stuff on solidarity economy/coops/P2P-commons/OpenApps as activist formations in ’the new economy'.<br>

> There’s also a chunk on the 70s-80s radical science movement<br>

> within a section on historical formations of ‘radical professional’ activism in the baby-boomer generation. History matters? Sometimes, wheels shouldn’t be reinvented; and sometimes they shouldn’t be re-used!<br>

All these are linked from the above blog piece. I would be delighted to know what you make of FoP RoP as a project - spun up just 6 months ago. There’s a Forum section in the website, as yet undeveloped. If you’d like to pitch in some comments please let me know, and we can ‘christen’ the forum? Or you could become a contributor to the blog? Alternatively, for some recipients, we can pick this up in Loomio or <a href="http://social.coop" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">social.coop</a> mastodon.<br>
