Nomadsland Citizenship Video Series #3: The Dream of the Open Tent to
find out more about the history of Nomadsland!
Nomadsland
was founded on May 11, 2003 by Alex, who wrote the necessary founding documents
to present a basic Charter, acknowledging that this Charter did not simply
drop from the sky. Alex recognized the charter as a work in the making, part
of an intellectual continuum of ideas.
Nomadsland was seen by Alex as an Independent State of Mind, ever-changing within the contemporary context and striving to be an accurate reflection of its citizenship. It has no enclosed land to call its own, and, in order to reflect its form as a network, never will.
This illustrious history is represented by the Nomadsland commissioning of the monument pictured on this page. Titled Monument to the Fourth Anniversarial, this work by Gareth Lichty, himself a Nomad, commemorates the fourth anniversary of Nomadsland in the year 2007. The monument itself is designed to be nomadic, reconfigured upon every installation, and is made up of thousands of wooden units.
