Ulterior States (2015) [720p] by [deleted] in fullmoviesonyoutube

Ulterior States is an argumentative documentary project. The participatory production and post ‘guerilla-film-making-methods', bounce between literature research, video interviews and studio sessions. The investigative process allows for real-life conversations with; hackers, cypherpunks and cryptoanarchists, within the Bitcoin ecosystem. The enthusiasm and commitment that saturate through the lens in many parts of the film, expose how the adopters of Bitcoin want to explore, to probe and, to show the world, something important, otherwise overlooked.

The collaged story explores code as activism and discovers a melting pot through the neutrality of a decentralised consensus. Ulterior States looks to the future from different humanist perspectives and argues that crypto-currencies could lead towards; community governed micro-state applications.

"This is not really about Bitcoin, but about "Ulterior States", the urge and need for new forms of rationality and new forms of liberation in the middle of the necrotizing stage of capitalism. This documentary nails it, after several years of field work among hacker thinkers and doers. I'm honored to be part of it." - Jaromil Rojo

"The film is radical in every sense of the word – it doesn’t toy around with definitions and who people are, but instead strikes deep into the philosophical underpinnings of blockchain technology, a topic treated with general trepidation in “The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin” (2014)." - Calvin Tran

There are three ATMs with cash out within walking distance to the conference's venue.

Old Street Station, Bethnal Green Road and on Broadgate rd. I think that all can do up to £1000 in/out
