## Un-Venture Adventure for the Undeceived

_Non-official Web Summit Edition (Park Hang-Out!)_

Getting tired of technoptimism and the idea that status, power, and making money is the goal of everything? Not trying to "raise" or "pitch"? Join us for a real human relaxing convening in a lovely Vancouver setting_._

## Folk Tech x Protopian Prize - Storytelling Workshop

Happening on **Wednesday, May 20th at 9:30am**

[Folk Tech](https://folktechnology.org/?ref=dwebyvr.org) is a solidarity-based movement among designers, developers, and people in communities who want digital technology that supports their daily life and interdependence without the extraction, exploitation, or surveillance found in most proprietary technology today.

​The [Protopian Prize](https://protopianprize.com/?ref=dwebyvr.org) is a fiction contest that asks what we can envision as people working toward liberatory futures, meeting obstacles, and making real change. “Protopian” means an achievable, optimistic future characterized by continuous, incremental progress rather than revolutionary leaps or a static, perfect state. Protopian stories imagine a future that is neither flawless nor catastrophic, but instead workably better than today. It’s about plausible progress rather than perfection or collapse.

## Common Space Kick Off

On **Thursday, May 21st at 6pm** , join us if you are interested in exploring shared spaces and collaborative ownership in Vancouver and beyond.

​Z-Space and the CoFood Garden have been amazing spaces that are part of the larger “federation” of people and projects around DWebYVR. Members of Z-Space host DWeb events, Emily gathers people at the CoFood garden, mesh devices get permanently installed, and various computers host servers. We rely on the sustainability of those spaces to exist so we can gather and experiment together.

Join us for the kick-off meeting, share your needs and interests, and start working on the Common Space project.
