Rainbow Culture: The Dream, the Mess and the Commons
The first thing many people notice about a Rainbow Gathering is what is "missing". There are no ticket booths, no commercial stages, no vendors selling branded experiences, no cash registers. Thousands of people gather in a forest to create temporary villages and cities to share food, build kitchens, make music, care for each other and then disappear again. The absence of money can seem like a strange fantasy, but the deeper story is that it is not a just a rule, the refusal of commerce was […]https://hamishcampbell.com/rainbow-culture-the-dream-the-mess-and-the-commons/
