The N55 ROCKET SYSTEM enables
persons to communicate their protest in a concrete way. It is a low tech,
low cost, highly efficient hybrid rocket propulsion system, fueled by a
mixture of polyethylene and laughing gas (N2O).
The N55 ROCKET SYSTEM makes it possible to distribute various things from
high altitudes. For example, printed matter or plant seeds could be spread
over a vast area.The rocket PROTEST, constructed to protest against large
concentrations of power, can carry a payload of 2 kg to an altitude of approximately
5200 m, if launched from an angle of 85 degrees. The fuel will burn for
6 seconds, bringing the rocket to a maximum speed of 475 m/s. The N55 ROCKET
SYSTEM has been equipped with a parachute and can be reused when a mission
is completed. The ROCKET SYSTEM is part of the N55 SPACE PROGRAMME, which
aims at creating space for persons and making space technology accessible
and useful in everyday life situations.

We have taken the SMALL TRUCK one step further and it can
now be used as a micro dwelling as well as for the SMALL TRUCK MICRO
MARKET SYSTEM:
TheSMALL TRUCK MICRO MARKET SYSTEM is a system that aims
at supporting micro-economical initiatives. The cages fit the dimensions
of SMALL TRUCKand can be stacked for transport as well
as for sale directly from the vehicle. When it stands alone, the system
functions as a small farm. It also contains equipment necessary for sleeping
and cooking.
Public spaces are generally dominated by commercial interests that block
the possibilities of smaller agents to make a living from small scale production
and sale.SMALL TRUCK MICRO MARKET SYSTEM is a flexible,
lowcost system that could break the monopoly of large shops in the cities,
thus increasing diversity on the streets. Street sale in most places is
regulated by permissions that could be an obstacle for small scale trade
and impulsive micro markets. Coordinated action between many agents could
facilitate establishment of micro markets, if not in highly regulated areas,
then in borders zones, on empty lots, and so on.
SMALL TRUCK MICRO MARKET SYSTEMconsists of equal sized
cages made of welded stainless steel tubes. The cages are made for small-scale
production and sales display of different goods.
The cages have a very simple, uniform construction which can accomodate
many different functions. Any kind of product or item can be offered for
sale through the SMALL TRUCK MICRO MARKET SYSTEM: food (baked, cooked, raw,
dried, canned, bottled, alive or dead), clothes and shoes, books, electronics,
furniture, etc. In addition, the kitchen unit makes it possible to offer
food, hot drinks, etc
