Lumbung radio description at d15¹

lumbung Radio is the online community radio project of documenta fifteen (d15). As an inter-local network of radio stations and audio practices, it is based on principles of commoning. lumbung Radio operates in no specific time zones, and streams multiple languages, music, and art. Each participating radio station depends on its own means of production, way of thinking, learning, and sharing. In that sense, lumbung Radio is a decentralized network of nodes that uses internet without its hegemonic agency. The radio itself runs on open-source infrastructure and is self-hosted on a dedicated server.

lumbung Radio the result of the radio working group (consisting of the initial members Grégoire Rousseau, Malene Saalmann, Gözde Filinta, Ayşe Güleç, and Reza Afisina) that started meeting in August 2021 between Kassel, Jakarta, and Helsinki, with the aim of envisioning a collective audio practice based on principles of commoning as a shared space between inter-local nodes of the documenta fifteen ekosistem.

lumbung Radio was launched in April 2022, broadcasting 24/7 during the 100 days of d15, from and to the whole planet. With the end of d15, the participants of the network, with the support of ruangrupa voted to continue the project.

lumbung Radio is coordinated by Station of Commons—an ongoing collaborative, Helsinki and Geneva based initiative on digital commoning practices by Grégoire Rousseau, Minerva Juolahti, Alain Ryckelynck, Constantinos Miltiadis, Juan Gomez, and Eddie Choo Wen Yi. Since February 2020, Station of Commons investigates the possibilities of reappropriating technology within public space. The point of departure of the research questions both centralized knowledge and data centers operated by major organizations and its underlying social implications. Station of Commons operates as an easily integrable online platform for sharing local resources.

Since 2022 Station of Commons is coordinating collective of lumbung radio, supported by the KONE foundation.

Station of Commons (SoC) is a Helsinki-based collective established in 2020 concerned with developing technologies, investigating forms, and pursuing practices for digital commoning. SoC operates in multiple ways inlcuding developing open technological infrastructure; co-/organizing exhibitions, performances, discursive events, and workshops; and relaying content from its network.

Among the flagship initiatives of SoC is the interlocal online radio lumbung radio, first established with ruangrupa for documeneta fifteen in 2022. The radio comprises more than 20 radio and audio practice collective from around the world, and is broadcasting since April 2022 on open infrastructure developed by SoC. Since the end of documenta, SoC is the coordinating collective of lumbung radio, supported by the Kone Foundation.

Station of Commons

Description from StationOfCommons.org.

An ongoing collaborative initiative on digital commoning practices by Grégoire Rousseau (Helsinki), Juan Gomez (Geneva), Minerva Juolahti, Alain Ryckelynck, Constantinos Miltiadis, and Eddie Choo Wen Yi.

Initiated in February 2020, Station of Commons investigates the possibilities of re-appropriating technology within public space. The point of departure of the research questions both centralized knowledge and data centers operated by major organizations and its underlying social implications. What are the interdependences between the users, the providers, the services, the technology and related knowledge at work? And how to rethink another model of shared empowerment situated in time and space unique to its agent, or communities?

Station of Commons stands for radical alternative strategies to the neo-liberal system in terms of digital means of production, communication and distribution. Station of Commons operates as an easily integrable on-line platform for sharing local resources. Resources as commons integrate the ideas of shared data, Open Source practices, artefacts and real time broadcast. The sustainability of exchange, the ways they interoperate, the ecologies of interaction between the Stations of Commons produce provocations for a better collective understanding on how the Commons are in constant flux and also at risk.

Each Station depends on its own means of production, way of thinking, learning and sharing. This position of autonomy reflects on the original concept of Internet: the equality in the relation client to server and the openness of the algorithmic process. The Station of Commons operates as a vibrant thinking space dedicated for tutorials, live performances and critical discussions around the practice of commoning and open technologies.
