Airports share some common infrastructures:
runways, control towers, hangars, etc. It is a kind of common language developed overtime to serve the normal functions of an airport.
Former airports are equipped with this legacy and challenge which might be perceivedas an invitation to examine the types of social infrastructure, and the technical, legaland operational standards as a platform for something new. Former airports need tobe seen as ports of ideas, social innovation and visions for the futures of their cities.
And this could perhaps be conceived by the citizens themselves.

Peer-to-peer culture
Peer-to-peer production has emerged as a vibrant human activity
challenging borders, enclosures, national and class divisions.
Peer-to-peer culture holds the potential for a change of
consciousness towards individual and networked participation
and for a paradigm shift in community and society structure.

The alterglobalisation movement is a well-known example of the P2P ethos at workin the political field.
The movement sees itself as a network of networks that combines players from awide variety of fields and opinions , who, despite the fact that they do no see eye toeye on every aspect, manage to unite around a common platform of action aroundcertain key events. They are able to mobilize vast numbers of people from everycontinent, without having at their disposal any of the traditional newsmedia, suchas televisions, radios or newspapers. Rather, they rely almost exclusively on the P2Ptechnologies described above.
