DESCRIPTION:Already last year les petites singularités were arguing for s
 maller gatherings that would stigmergically[1] connect globally. While the
  global situation has pushed further digital concentration in the greedy h
 ands of corporation\, we stand behind this principle\, and propose OFFDEM\
 , a smaller gathering that is not affected by the impossibility to organiz
 e large gatherings.\n\nThe current crisis only increased the takeover of o
 ur lives by corporate online tools that create an addiction and format our
  interactions to their criteria. This brings us to acknowledge the pertine
 nce of pursuing our dissenting line of conduct.\n\nFree software tools bin
 d with communities and actual life issues\, they do not serve to replace e
 xisting human relations but to strengthen people’s agency and help organ
 ize the information they produce. We do not accept that our social relatio
 ns be replaced by tools defined according to corporate agendas.\n\n\n\nRea
