''Parallel Culture''<br />
<br />
From 23 to 31 October, [[Logos]] and Zu-Grama are bringing around 30 people to Dhun, a 500-acre regenerative living project near Jaipur, for Field Station / Rajasthan, an eight-night residency for builders and activists.<br />
<br />
It is designed as the opposite of a weekend hackathon, where a team forms, builds quickly, presents, and goes home. At Field Station, residents live together, share meals made from local crops, and keep their evenings phone-free, while still getting more than four hours of uninterrupted build time a day. Builders are asked to bring something concrete, whether a project, a prototype, or a clearly scoped problem, and to shape it around a real issue in the communities near the site.<br />
<br />
The challenges to build around are based on everyday problems. One asks for a better way of reporting local problems like water, waste, access, and maintenance, so they can be seen moving from reported to in progress to resolved. Another is about privacy-preserving mutual aid, helping residents and site staff coordinate transport, supply runs, and practical help.<br />
<br />
The residency has four main tracks: a Civic Prize track working on problems identified by Logos Circles, a sovereignty and privacy track for people already building such tools, a d/acc track led by Zu-Grama, and a track for non-builders. As the joint organisers put it, “not everyone at Field Station writes code.” Activists, organisers, artists, and writers will use the tools, test them, challenge them, and help judge the projects.<br />
<br />
The week ends with a summit and demo day, where residents show what they built and what happened when people used it. The strongest projects from the Logos tracks can go on to milestone-based grant funding.<br />
