The Blockchain Socialist

Imagining Post-Capitalism through World Building

The Blockchain Socialist

While in Thailand during the Funding the Commons design jam, I spoke to Susanne Aichele from Mothertree Labs. Susanne is a filmmaker, researcher, and communication practitioner focused on the intersection of ecology, community, and identity, leveraging experience with BBC, National Geographic, the UN, and WHO to create projects that foster interconnected ecologies and non-extractive practices.

We spoke about Susanne's previous documentary The Ways of the DAOs (2022), how to approach narratives from a post-capitalist lens and whether Breadchain is doing a good job at this!
