txt : This open camp format is being developed
by Platoniq, bearing in mind the needs of communities and agents working in cultural and/or social fields, using new media in a low budget/low tech context. As a temporary occupation, the CPPP vindicates the reappropiation and re-politization of public spaces, taking debates, discussions and
ideas to the street. As a net event, the camp promotes the use and appropiation of mass media technologies and language, as a way to improve the diffusion and exchange of ideas, projects and experiences.

In this first of an ongoing series of temporary camps, the design and construction of the camp was developed in collaboration with students of the University of Antioquia in a workshop organizad by Platoniq using Open Source tools, recycled/reused material, low cost technologies, tactical media strategies and a next to nothing budget.
The contents presented in the CCCP are related to the local free culture scene, independent digital media and the existing networked communities in in Medellin. The presentations were held and organized in a collective and participative way, using a mail list and a wiki, with the agents or representants of these groups, and were attended by the general public present in the square the day of the presentation and on the net, via audio and video streaming.

This project was made with the collaboration of the Spain Embassy in Bogota and the University of Antioquia.
