Who are you ? Name, nickmane, hobbies ?
My name is Voltie, I'm responsible of the radio module and audio creations.
What are you doing in the Zeitgeist Movement (TZM) ?
Currently, I'm collecting audio datas. I take audio mark from people participating in meetings of TZM.
Concretly, it's 40 or 50 people whose intonations of voice have meaning, without speak about the meaning of this discussions (that we collect too). This is what I want to relay.
How did you join TZM and why ?
I heard about a friend who is a "Jedi of celebration". He is an activist of Celebrations and Smiles. He talked to me about TZM but
I tried to watch the movie Addendum after a party but I fell asleep.
But one year later, someone give me a leaflet next to the radio station "Radio France" just before the subway.
The Leaflet was well-done because on one side there was a description of general methods of manipulations and propagandas using in medias.
It seems to me very wise without being vindictive, it was great.
And on the other side of the paper, there was a description of the Resource based economy (RBE).
I read because I was on the subway so I had time. I was interested so I went on the website of TZM and finaly I arrived on the french teamspeak.
To simply have the possibility to speak with others and enjoy it... in fact they were my only interlocutors when I was opening my eyes on the reality of our world.
With my friends it was difficulte to speak about the situation of our world.
So it was really great to come on the Teamspeak in the morning or in the middle of the night.
With them, I had the opportunity to speak about things I saw during the day and found outrageous. We talked about what we could do to change things.
This is why the sound and the voices is not only virtual for me.
Why do you support TZM and the RBE ?
Simply because it's the more reasonable alternative.
Can you talk about TZM in France ? Its success and difficulties ?
I don't know the history of the movement in my country. The most successful achievement in my region (a project with 5 people but only 2 people actually here)
was to give leaflet in a parking with Alex911. It was leaflet talking about the chance we have in rich country to have access to water or food, with statistics.
And a leaflet which give a link into the movie Zeitgeist : Moving Forward (which personally blow my mind).
Teamspeak and Moving Forward was the reason why I joined the movement. All the documentation I... In fact, Teamspeak, I don't
explain why it's great. On Teamspeak, you have a lot of links into articles, videos etc. You go on Teamspeak and you visit links others people share.
You are shocked by things, you tell it and you can share links about this things.
But the link is not alone, there is the speech of other which give more value of what is share.
So, after this, my biggest action is to distributed leaflet in a parking.
What are the future projects of TZM in France ?
Personally, I still work on audio matter. The goal is to find keywords (like RBE) and popularize them. It's about brings this words in our common language.
Tell us what is important to know about the economical, political and social situation of France.
I don't know very well... I'm affraid for the education. Children and school is for me the first ressource for us. It'es important to don't ruin education.
And budget in education is less and less important.
The system is not here to help people. I can't talk more in details now but the danger is to wait contagion of the austerity.
I'm waiting for the government to ask help from people. Can we have this ? Maybe. But we can be the one who slows others too.
How do you see the transition into a RBE ?
I think, the best is the moment when the way we consider the world is changing. We are close to example of systems
which work more or less with a high consideration of the nature, an autonomous etc.
I believe in the local actions.
(Need to change the tapes)
About transition, ok.
With austerity, people will open their eyes. They will try to find how to change.
We have the head in the sand, the head is lifted, if there is indications, people will watch them.
So I want to prepare the more indications I can. Indications are possibles with local actions.
With associations, municipalities etc.
So where I start again ?
How do you see the transition ?
More I think, more I see a changement of the way we consider the world. We can't live as everything is okay.
When people will understand there is something deeply wrong, their way of seeing the world will change.
At this moment, the transition will be easy to access. On a local scale, the transition is the question of alternative. How can we live on a different way ?
We can share, exchange things, we organize ourselves. Lifes organized without the administration and economical parts.
The transition can be easy, we just need to look differently to see something different is already here.
The transition is just realize the other way is already here.
We are already in it.
Message for people of the Earth ?
We can do it, I think we can do it.
