Thomas Steininger in dialogue with Franz Nahrada
Villages have a human scale, where it is still possible to develop personal relationships free from bureaucracy or the market. Not that villages don't have problems, but they have specific qualities that we have lost in the metropolitan areas and the worlds created by the global market.
Franz Nahrada has a long history with village development. At the same time, he has worked since the 1980s as a programmer, beginning at Apple in the early days when the world wide web was a global village. His work is connecting these two, often almost opposite, realms.
Can the global Internet be a fertile ground for a new development of villages in regions around the world? This is more than a different vision for the future. It is a real movement that is taking place in many villages on all five continents. Maybe this will be our future.
In this week’s Radio evolve, Thomas Steininger talks with Franz Nahrada about the development of a global network of villages.
