The Yurt Empire are artists and activists that just completed a 4 day workshop for their project: They are intending to built 6 yurts on vacant sites in Sydney and attempt to inhabit these yurts for 28 days. Their chosen sites are just about to be developed and were highly contested. For this project the group chose to define their approach through performative storytelling, permaculture and collaborative investigations - check out their site here: yurtempire.blogspot.com.au
