KO Vorkingovsky International // Work or Life!

The last half-year, the theme of "freelancing work in one space" or "co-working" of the idea, and business innovation is seamlessly embodied in an everyday decision.

Freelancers who need only “head”, “means of production” for work - their laptop and wireless access to the world wide web become new “city” or rather world nomads.

You can talk about the new “sub-class” of creative tramps: - digital artists, photographers, content managers, writers, bloggers. For which the concept of life and work become a new single whole, complemented by traveling around the world. A whole core of “professional travelers” has already formed, describing their blog travel experience, for which they receive donation for further travel around the world.



So, the global emergence of such co-working centers will eventually come to their trans-national association in some kind of single groups and societies.



And if we add to this the economic model in the likeness of the FON project, then we will get a real coworking International, with the possibility of a “annual subscription” subject to hosting other co-working colleagues. Thus, a new class of the world creative elite, independent of a certain geographical location, turns into real “nomads” of the XXI century for whom the office is everywhere.

Of course, at first glance, this approach seems absurd, the “co-working” movement is only gaining momentum, geographic boundaries still exist and are protected by a strict system of stay rules, but it is impossible to deny that the spread of wireless communications, the possibility of mobile work, the creation of “third places” new impetus to the following trends:

')

1. Freedom in choosing a job. Now “work” no longer requires binding to a specific place, it is enough to have a mobile tool and communication tools to perform its tasks. However, it is worth noting that most of the masterpieces of literature of the late 19th, early and mid-20th centuries were written in coffee shops and cafes. Pencils have become laptops



2. Life = Work! .. For a writer it is difficult to draw the line between life - creativity or work. Where (or more precisely when) does the blogger’s traveler’s working day begin? Or for the next future Pulitzer Prize winner? The whole flow of events, actions, and experience - again becomes what it was before the emergence of the idea of ​​the division of labor and the creation of a factory - LIFE



If we continue the flight of thought further ... then we can assume that for people of the future (it will be more accurate to speak for a certain part) the house will also be a “distant” concept that exists for sharing with someone, gaining a certain experience, just a normal stop on the way.



However, as the slogan of the new Louis Vuitton advertising “Where will life take you?” Says, we can only choose the direction;)
