We are the World Pickers Collective. Just as mushroom pickers collect mushrooms that live in the ruins of capitalism, our research collective collects worlds that might be able to survive in the ruins as well. Our collective functions as an open research community. The past month we have used Joy Forum as an laboratory and invited people to think along. We have delved into the seven magical mountains that encircle the city of Bergen, with a main focus on Lyderhorn. We have discovered that there is an hidden world inside of the mountain. An ancient slow evolving ecosystem, in which species mutate and become fertilisers for the world above. We invite you to come to one of the events in which more stunning discoveries will be shared.
