Fran Ilich

Fran Ilich is a Mexican author and artist. He is in New York as we talk about Indian princesses and bunnies eating precious Zapatista corn – which all somehow relates to his Spacebank project that he founded as an alternative form of investment bank. Also his Brooklyn Stock Exchange, the Sabotage Hedge Fund, as well as a digital currency that he created show that another kind of banking is possible, and how they can empower social relationships among virtual and physical communities.
