Field Notes: Cocoons creates a portable squatting device made from shared, free or hacked materials. It is a simple structure that folds into a back pack. The cocoons combine Forays’ interest in pursuing and developing infrastructures that are based on mutual-aid, the redistribution and novel use of resources and waste. Field Notes: Cocoons is a report on a continued experiment in re-orienting our lifestyle, in turning a moment of “crisis” into an opportunity to re-organize our lives with low-tech, open source solutions and the hacked resources and infrastructures of the city.
