Introducing "The Spark"

By News Desk

Links Introducing "The Spark" April 9, 2014 ( Tony Cartalucci – LocalOrg ) – " The Spark "( Facebook / Vimeo ) is an interesting and ongoing grassroots project that fits in well with an older article featured on LocalOrg titled, " Decentralizing Big-Retail ."

It featured a combination of projects from urban farming to technological havens called "makerspaces" or "hackerspaces" working in tandem to turn a city block into a sustainable, self-sufficient economic unit driven by open source collaboration, technology, and local entrepreneurship.

Hosni Mubarak was ousted from power and the military tolerated the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood itself into power.
