This conversational panel brings together Gladys Kalichini, Nat Skoczylas, and Po-Chih Huang to explore alternate economic practices shaped by circulation, trust, and collective rhythm. Drawing from rotating savings systems, mutual aid structures, and social currencies, the conversation attends to how value is generated, held, and redistributed through relation rather than accumulation.

Rather than proposing universal models, the panel foregrounds situated practices - such as rotating savings groups, informal economies, and experimental coin systems - that operate through local agreements, temporal cycles, and shared responsibility. Framed within Current·Seas, the discussion approaches economy as a living infrastructure: something practiced together, adjusted in motion, and sustained through care, reciprocity, ongoing negotiation, and the dance of bargaining.
