Of course, we are waiting for more proposals. And there are more ideas, but we need people to carry the workshop. So, if you want to hold a workshop, please let us know!
ºººººººººººº
So, you need to bring with you:
-sleeping bag or blankets. (It may be a bit cold in Catalonia in June).
- whatever you need for eating: forks, spoons, plates, mug …
We, as the ones who are making the call for this gathering, will take responsibility for organizing the meals (last year a collective assumed to prepare the food with some help from us). So, we will have ready the food for Friday, Saturday and Sunday’s meals, and Monday’s breakfast and lunch. We expect help to cook and do the washing up.
The cost for the food will be about 10 euros per day, but we still have to count more precisely. We tell you in advance!
The food, of course, will be vegetarian with a vegan option.
Also, we hope to be able to organize some events to have fun on Friday’s, Saturday’s and Sunday’s nights.
We are going to have ready anything necessary to play videos and if you would like to show something to the rest of participants, let us know! And we trust in your skills and help.
Children, and people with any special need are welcome, but it will be good to know in advance, in order to ease their reception and to provide whatever you need.
To get information about the exact place or anything else you want to ask us, please write to [email protected] or llavors d’anarquia ([email protected]) C/Mestres Casals i Martorell 18 Baixos 08003 BARCELONA (Spanish State).

Y'know after the fall of civilisation (or the "corpse-machine") I think it'll be pretty easy to pick up on how to use a spear and make bread. They're not the most complicated activities after all. (Fuck knows what you're gonna go around hunting with a spear though...)
I'd be more worried about things that'll be a bit harder to pick up - anyone at this yoke going to run workshops on diy heartsurgery or 'ways to communicate with people on the other side of the world without using technology' or anything like that?
if you're worried about not being able to survive without the continuance of this corpse-machine, to borrow a phrase, then start learning.. how to share would be a first step.. And yes Barcelona is miles away but dont knock em for the invitation, at least they're trying to share some ideas, skills + whatnot. Good luck to em
So how do we all get to Barcelona? Walk? While eating the deer we just killed with a flint spear? And I guess if we all pool the pelts of what we've all killed, we'll have enough to build a shelter.
I'm not trying to be trollish; in some ways, I find the subject of a critique of civilization fascinating. One thought that I have, and it's a chilling one, is the amount of people who would have to die off, starve, and freeze to get us back to pre-civilization population levels.
Since I don't know how to farm or hunt, and the people who I know who do aren't the greatest at sharing, I'd probably be among the first billion or so to go.
