Time Capsule Project: Knowledge across time

Time capsules reflect the values of a current culture, but are designed within an imagined future. They exist across time holding hopes, fears, and desires for a future civilization.

On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Village Building Convergence, Artist Jordan Rosenblum is working in collaboration with City Repair and event organizers will use the form of a time capsule as a collective artwork. The time capsule will document knowledge and insight generated during the events and you are invited to participate, dreaming our future/s, and acknowledging our present/s through a series of questions posed at each event.

On the closing of the VBC, a time capsule will be created in a distributed form, with participants offered to take back accumulated knowledge to our own communities.

AND!!! Stay tuned for info as we will be breaking out a time capsule the City Repair founders prepared and buried in cob 20 years ago. We’re going to break it open and share the contents over VBC!
