I’ve been thinking about this a lot actually:

NS = kiki

The most obvious bouba thing is a bubble and the most obvious bubble like community field is a vibe.

So… vibe fields. Stable and persistent ones in particular.

Fits my idea of a hardened commons where the governing force is not a charismatic great man’s reality distortion field but a mutualist-tangle’s collective distortion field. CDF > RDF

Vibe festival? 

Festival a la piepers celebration of leisure

WORK!?

Pieper was using more historical versions of both words that’s what I was getting at. 

I guess it’s too late to reclaim those words. Haha

Hmm no. I think leisure is a high priority value for you personally but median person is eager to work hard. Just in alt ways than corporate droning.

And definitely not festival. Popup cities seem to attract a non-festival crowd. It’s people who want to do fulfilling work as main thing, not party.

Festivals are a separate scene. Burning man, SXSW, fwb etc. I’ve never liked those.
