East of Moon

A laboratory for community centred innovation

A laboratory for community centred innovation

It wants to create new things, but it's not interested in growth for its own sake. It would like to ask questions that are not knowable, but would like the answers to affect our present reality. It wants to be part of change without being limited to the frameworks set up to do that.

While East of Moon is a vehicle in the form of a company, and the integrity of the vehicle must be protected, its principal motto is that of Comte de Lautreamont:

“Poetry must be made by all, not by one”
