what do you think about modern ecovillage-projects like artlantica-ecovillage in Portugal? (4)
We in the U.K have quite a few eco villages for some time now , even in London, so nothing new and not just based on artistry etc.
Here's a link to one of the biggest.
Bedzed in London is another example.

What's wrong with normal villages?
Aren't they "eco" enough.

How many collapse into a cult, or simply collapse?
My impression is that these are something more village than a village, but nobody has any roots. Without the domination of one powerful personality, how would it stand?

I would prefer to take a village as is, fit some solar panels and have a better go at the recycling.
I worry how a group of strangers become more local than local through the force of one man's will. I mean it will probably part ways after a couple of years like students in a dorm, but if it doesn't do that, how? It's all too intentional to survive without one man's dominating intent. No, I'd choose somewhere that already has a shared way of life in which cooperation, at least to a certain extent, is second nature. More local than local but it's actually a group of strangers? The missing ingredient is the fuhrer.

For a life of prosperity & community,
"Living like God in France".
In times of social upheaval, community projects are becoming more and more necessary for each individual and for humanity as a whole, in order to better face and master the challenges of the New Era....
With internationally known and local artists, the ARTlantica artist colony is founded on an attractively located area in Southern Europe as a multi-generational project, which provides architecturally attractive and organic buildings in wood and clay construction in the form of a spiral-shaped eco-settlement and which acts as a nucleus for further settler foundations - for a life in prosperity, health and with nature.The aim is to be associated with EuroArt, the European network of artists' villages with the ARTlantica artists' village. The first location may be in southern Portugal.
The cooperative ARTlantica- artist village will attract visitors from all over the world.
In the past, artists' villages or districts have maintained their position as attractive settlement approaches up to the present day and continue to act as magnets to initially attract people from all over the world who are interested in art, whose charisma has also attracted and continues to attract other residents.
In addition to the artistic success and the buildings, these villages and neighborhoods also soon enjoyed economic success, which then, however, often drove away the original initiators and residents. Well-known examples are Greenwich Village/New York, Worpswede near Bremen, Ahrenshoop on the Baltic Sea or Kroszian in Croatia.
