[@PrincessSakuno]

I wasn't going to click this video but damn this was really amazing knowledge that you shared. Thank you so much. I have never heard of these kinds of communities before and I feel so glad they exist. People are actually doing something and researching ways to live In a sustainable manner in a modern form. Damn this is really amazing. They definitely need to share more insights about how they live so people can learn from them

I live in Queensland, Australia. We have a community here called Crystal Waters in Maleny. I don’t know about the present time but they have shared their knowledge of environment and community with workshops, internet etc. they interact with the outside community with a bakery and hosting a monthly market. Homes are often mudbrick and strawbale.

[@StanSyfert]

Beautiful to see and hear about this place, will you also visit the Boom festival/community in the future? It seems like they have a lot in common in practices and spirit. Good luck with project Kamp and all the best, stay safe!

[@jonnyreh001]

I recently moved to Portugal, I think I will come to visit this place! I want to learn more :)

[@DeweyKentM]

What about healthcare? There’s no doctor in the community, probably because Portugal has universal healthcare, but how do they give back to the greater community to feel worthy to take advantage of one of the modern luxuries they have chosen to distance themselves from? Do they still pay taxes, and if so, where does their money come from? If they don’t sell produce, and their solar cookers are for themselves, what is their export/ source of income? I like the idea of places like these, but how do they get to seemingly pick and choose which conveniences to take advantage of, and which inconveniences to leave behind? Maybe it just wasn’t included in the video, and I’m jumping to conclusions, but it seems a little too perfect without any catches or compromises.

[@mattiabe2598]

I believe taxes are paid for each full time member

[@guillaumep.7206]

I don't understand why people consider different ways to live means it is wrong. Maybe ask yourself: Do all of the members live and work in the community? If no, they have to pay income tax, and get money to afford the 75% of the food they are not producing. Do all kids are home-schooled or is there a school in the community? Maybe, but until which level? Who owns the land? If it is not the mafia, then the owners have to pay taxes and even though I believe construction laws in Portugal not to let you do whatever you want ... So, as a short answer, it is not because you live differently that you are an outlaw. And even if you wanted to, you could not decide to be out of the society. I am very sure, they are all perfectly legal portugal residents and tax payers.... or after 45 years, they would be in jail and the community would have been taken over by local autorities.

[@decyrano]

Healthcare is Selfcare. No one has more vested interest in Your health, than You and Your immediate family.

[@veronicabalfourpaul2288]

I believe they have a doctor and midwives. They also communicate with the local parish.

[@bobjob3632]

No income=no taxe! The community has to pay housing taxes though.

[@fenibugnofeniaz849]

That’s marvellous!! Thank you for your video, is it possibile to join them?

[@markdetray9441]

Pressure cookers [all-metal] for cooking --- can reduce cooking time to 1/5th to 1/10th the time :)

[@BDregger]

I have been to Tamera quite a few times: to be there gives you the possibility to connect to a certain field of thruth and trust. Wonderful things can and will happen to you there. These energy fields seem to be part of what they call the Sacred Matrix. Basically the Sacred Matrix, a platform of an alternative state of being is everywhere in the Universe.

[@jafinch78]

Very interesting. I was really drawn in by the solar concentrator design and am really impressed on the systems that I see they are practically using appears. The concentrator focused on the large cooking kettle seems really neat. That is way awesome as well as the larger concentrating trough for cooking. Wow! Larger scale implements. That is really awesome! Makes me wonder now about extrusion of plastic sheets to recycle with not only novel products developed... new also. So, like I've thought about solar concentrating larger scale for feeding heat and to advance controls in kilns and furnaces for pottery, glass and metal... why not even easier.... plastics!!! HHhmmm... why not? Proven sintered 3D printing has been performed. Not saying 3D plastic printed completely solar powered can't be performed... however... why not at least augment or ideally completely control with advanced controls the heating of the extrusion process maybe for starters? I've not seen before. That would be great. I'm not sure the bio-equivalent greatness of plastics that brake down into nano or small particles being so good. We need to recycle the material since last long as well as like more toxic products, keep in locations where we do not consumer or ingest. Underground I personally feel is best if there is an aesthetic issue and concern... or under layers like wrapping housing or basements. So I think that is one reason when I think of the plastic as a film or thinner material already... why not figured out how to make into sheets as-is or even amended with other fibers or minerals (that might add more recycling complexity to begin with) for longer term hydro, pneuma, thermal and pressure or even electromagnetic spectrum insulation capabilities.

[@LionKimbro]

I’ve been to Tamera for three months cumulatively. I find it frustrating. I think that the new generation has pretty much given up on the man-woman question. I agree strongly with Bori’s wish to get back to fundamental research. I also agree that they don’t share what they have learned and know- and I think it’s not just about the Internet- as a visitor, there is a thick psychological wall set up. For example, they never teach about love archetypes, or forum. As a matter of policy. They teach people ideas, but never implementation. There’s a passage in Eros Unredeemed that says “mainstream liberals love to discuss ideas endlessly but do not like to actually experiment or get involved.” The irony, of reading that passage, over and over, in different study groups at Tamera. (Sigh.) I love Tamera, but also find that it can be incredibly obtuse.

[@LionKimbro]

@@martam7258 Right: The Political Theory, as they call it at Tamera. Tamerans believe that when they successfully create a Healing Biotope that is truly in coherence with the laws of life (the "Sacred Matrix," in the language of Tamera,) that Healing Biotopes will prevail globally. That may sound mystical and ridiculous -- I don't think that it is. The idea is kind of like: Once somebody (like the Wright Brothers) creates a working airplane, in short order airplanes will appear around the world globally. The time between the Wright Brothers first flight and the first commercial airlines was about 10 years. So I don't think that the Political Theory or the Plan of Healing Biotopes is absurd. That said, I think that Tamerans underestimate just what it will take to create a working Healing Biotope, and they would be the first to admit that they have not yet created a Healing Biotope. But I believe that that is where they are focusing their efforts: internally. I think that they are kind of racing: Focusing on internal development, focusing on internal development, focusing on internal development. Communication with outsiders is slow, and fraught. They will teach and project communities out into the world, but on their own terms, entirely. They trust what they have contact with, and contact in these realms essentially means being a Tameran, or at least living in Tamera full time for a period of years. Which, by the way, you cannot do, because: Portuguese zoning codes. They'd love to expand, but they are already illegally over-capacity. They have been granted temporary reprieve, but they cannot take on more people. This is what I have been able to glean, so far, at least.

[@augustkietzmann4088]

hi may i ask what is the goal/plan for project Kamp?

[@athollmcnicoll1028]

So Dave having visited this other colony, have you managed an ideal for your own project Kamp where you see practicing methods come to fruition?

[@PierreLaBaguette]

very uplifting 2 sources, related in a way i thought of - check out Julia Watson's few videos and book on indigenous knowledge (building, farming), came out this year my other favourite book - We do things differently (by Mark Stevenson) - bunch of case studies from very different fields of human activity (one chapter is also about farming). the book is not at all about communal living, but very inspiring source about working "projects". i think there should also be website where such alternatives are collected. cheers, looking forward to next videos!

hey there, how are you going guys? nice to know about your project kamp, its amazing i whant to join to you to work togeter, for sure im a good new member for the team

[@tibokeko]

Hi Dave, is there a way to join this whole adventure ? Do you need some more hands for project Kamp ? I mean here any kind of labor. Great work of yours by the way !

[@meribor]

Thinking about what Bori said how she wished there was more of a research mindset that she remembered from years past... In time the principle people of Project Kamp will settle into some of their ways. I think that's natural and fine and zero judgment if or when it happens. But there may need to be a concerted effort to bring in younger generations to keep that research mindset fresh and hungry. Within reason, ofc. The 'olds' may need to get to sleep fairly early ~ winks

I congratulate the people of Tamera, they are living a life compatible with The Earth. Is there any type of economy in Tamera?

Because they chose to?

well you cannot promise to trust others, you can only know yourself well enough to know you are loyal to truth. You can trust them to be exactly as they are though and accept them for who they are and this means trusting your own descernment /intuition. You cannot build peace on how others should be, only on acceptance and setting boundries for people who cant be loyal to truth. To attach an ideal of trust as the highest aim of a community, no matter the actual circomstances and people involved, is very dangerous and will be abused. To silence and reject people who follow their gut and sense there is insicerety and people who will appeal how we should all trust each other to make it work

[@gregm.5960]

I don't know if this will help since this video is a year old but you mentioned that "Permaculture isn't on the internet much". Factually that statement is partially wrong. Permaculture is all over the internet you just need to know the terminology since not all permaculturalists advertise what they are doing as Permaculture. There are books that you can buy as well. Here is some terminology for you that might help. Chicken Tractors/ Chicken tractor on steroids, Rotational grazing/ mob grazing, Companion planting, Swales, Rocket stoves, Hugelkultur, no-dig gardens, SuperAdobe, Cob/Strawbale building, cordwood building, rainwater collection, you can pretty much look up permaculture and any farm animal and they will have suggestions for you. Another reason Permaculture is hard to find is that things that started as Permaculter went mainstream or they borrowed/ adapted from the mainstream. Well, I hope this helps.
