+Welcome to the Permacomputing wiki!
+
+![permaflower](../pmclogo-neau.png)
+
+**[[Permacomputing]]** is both a concept and a community of practice
+oriented around issues of resilience and regenerativity in computer and
+network technology inspired by permaculture. 
+
+There are huge environmental and societal issues in today's computing,
+and Permacomputing specifically wants to challenge them in the same way as
+permaculture challenges industrial agriculture. It is an anti-capitalist 
+political projectm and it is driven by several strands of anarchism, decoloniality, 
+intersectional feminism, post-marxism, degrowth, environmentalism.
+
+Permacomputing is also a utopian ideal that needs a lot of rethinking,
+rebuilding and technical design work to put in practice. This is why a lot
+of material on this wiki is highly technical.
