About the project
“Rendering Wikihouse a Wikivillage” is a prototype of an open source community made of Wikihouses that expands the open source shared knowledge involved in the process of the development of a single Wikihouse to the complexity of daily community life. The Wikihouses and their processes, once they are constructed, are not isolated elements, but complete urbanisms made of objects, technologies, beings, buildings, and environments as constellations of heterogeneous entities. The Wikivillage takes into account this collective dimension to render the Wikihouse project into a community constructed as a political arena where the limits of the domesticity are not confined inside the dwelling unit of the Wikihouse.
