# Part 1: Life is Diversity

## Life is fostered by its diversity so is critical tech, in decentralised projects.

### [What is the Third TechnoScape (3TS)?](https://ps.zoethical.org/t/what-is-the-third-technoscape-3ts/26)

→ Following Devuan, we decided to use a forum to discuss the existing and a Third TechnoScape

_Where we are coming from._

> « Fragment indécidé du jardin planétaire, le Tiers paysage est constitué de l’ensemble des lieux délaissés par l’homme. Ces marges assemblent une diversité biologique qui n’est pas à ce jour repertoriée comme  
> richesse.
> 
> Tiers paysage renvoie à tiers-état (et non à Tiers-monde). Espace n’exprimant ni le pouvoir ni la soumission au pouvoir.
> 
> Il se réfère au pamphlet de Siesyes en 1789 :  
> « Qu’est-ce que le tiers-état ? - Tout.  
> Qu’a-t-il fait jusqu’à présent ? - Rien.  
> Qu’aspire-t-il à devenir ? - Quelque chose. »

> Techno-science develop a pre-emptive approach to everything, where a map precedes the territory. This top-down process amplifies the pregnance of efficient technological practices, but also their uniformization over any other consideration. Industrial technology production addresses a general case, omitting singularities. The primacy of the map over the territory in our society prompted us to explore the conditions of success of alternative, situated practices.
> 
> We engaged in the liminal spaces of city fringes where a diversity of life develops, and came to focus on technological practices that would be embedded in specific contexts.

> The Third Technoscape constitutes and is constituted of Singular technologies, like a stitching it binds different situations, each unveils the modes of existence of Singular Technologies within specific peer practices. The realization of the existence out from the market and into practice lead us to reclaiming their condition of existence.

> From our experience with free software, we work towards the formulation of _singular technologies_, or technologies that foster human agency and critical, intentional technology production, adapted to local usage: “rooting technologies”. Singular technologies are conditioned by an active presence, and an engagement of the community. Their production involve many different aspects that hybridize them with life ensuring their diversity and perennity.

> Shedding lights also means casting shadows. In the shades of capitalist hegemony and ideology, we cast the 3TS to respond to the reductionist market-driven fallacy of “Third Space”, between home and the workplace, where social capital can easily be captured and executed while the worker’s guard is lowered. Not only the pervasiveness of technologies make such notions as home and work porous to the point of dissolution, but the rapidly deteriorating conditions of existence of the living often do not respond anymore to such criteria : the homeless meet the jobless in the darkness left over by the predatory shadow of mainstream propaganda.

> ## Reclaiming Singular Technologies

> At this point the reader has a good idea what kind of resistance 3TS is characterizing. From our use-cases, we can explore the granularity of ST that make them distinct from, and slippery to market-driven technoscience. We insist on the step aside that can make us see the flatness and compose with interstices and “sociologies of scale” to enable ST and resist the apparent ineluctability of capitalist hegemony.

### Questions

We have found old/new working models in our different realms for example : local commitment with proximity food distribution systems, collective living together, etc. Do we have functioning examples? How do we sustain them in everyday life?

# Part 2: Concepts and definitions

## Anti-patterns to get away from imposed patterns that tend to become falsely self-evident

### Open-World Assumption

> The open-world assumption (OWA) codifies the informal notion that in general **no single agent or observer has complete knowledge** , and therefore cannot make the closed-world assumption—that all truth is known to be true.
