This article reports on a movement to create a radical new model of higher education in Europe and beyond based on the practices of self-education and militant/co-research during 2011. The article provides an account of a group that lies at the heart of this movement, the Edu-Factory Collective. The approach advocated by the Edu-Factory Collective is illustrated by two radical pedagogical projects--Student as Producer, based in the UK, and Universidad Nomada in Spain. (Contains 2 footnotes.)
