CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
After three years of (semi) regular existence, it is now high-time that the Pervasive Labour Union zine takes a very close look at the universe of the alternatives to corporate social networks.
What do these alternatives look like? What are the requirements of a 'true' alternative?
The Pervasive Labour Union zine already broached some of these topics on its Special Issue with the Homebrew Server Club on #XMPP. To follow the HBSC’s strategy, a premium should be put on alternative approaches, not on any specific alternative apps.
We need #federated social networking solutions based on open standards that are able to communicate among themselves, regardless of the platform being used.
Which protocols can and are being developed to achieve interoperability between the different alternatives? How do scale and trust influence the field? What are the forces at play within this realm and how to engage with them?
With this issue, we propose not only to collect a field guide of sorts, but also to open up the discussion on the alternatives and how to tackle the challenges posed by network effects, scalability and financial viability.
DEADLINE: February 5th
Submit to: lidia@majesticmoo.se, lidia.pmr@gmail.com or nikos.vv@gmail.com

UPSETTING SETTINGS - XPUB #Gradshow 2019 🥳🤖
12-13.07.2019 #Exhibition + #Presentations + #Workshops!
UBIK, S/ASH GA\\ERY in #Rotterdam
Upsetting Settings presents graduation projects initiated by Alexander Roidl, Alice Strete, Angeliki Diakrousi, Joca van der Horst, Natasha Berting, and Zalán Szakács. The concept of this exhibition arises from the idea of the default setting, a situation in which a specific mode of interaction is selected automatically, pre-configured to work out of the box without the need to tinker with its underlying apparatus. Every system comes with default settings predefined by its creators, and most of the time, these settings remain unchanged by us, the users of such systems. These defaults do not represent our needs but are possibly the materialisation of biases from the system's makers, from corporate or political interests, from a society at large. The projects engage with the concept of default modes and propose interventions in their core structure/source/root so as to start thinking collectively about better places from which to begin. You are invited to become root users, active listeners, smart speakers, intentional eaters, counter trolls, sensorial spectators!

The Network We (de)Served - (XPUB Special Issue #08)
Geachte bezoeker,
Het was een paar maanden terug dat we bij elkaar van huis tot huis gingen om ons gezamenlijke homebrew netwerk te installeren. Terwijl onze host een kop thee voor ons zette, onderzochten we op deze infrastructour onze routers en hoe die ons aan het internet verbonden.In de huizen waar het mogelijk was installeerden we een server, maar dat lukte niet overal. Het maakte sommigen van ons afhankelijk van een ander lid van de groep.
Gezamelijk werken aan vormen van self-hosting als een manier om het te hebben over netwerken, autonomie, online publiceren en sociale infrastructuren, waarbij we allemaal vertrokken vanuit een andere vraag. We willen graag onze persoonlijke (en toch onderling verbonden) zoektochten met je delen, een verhaal vertellen, onze web- en gedrukte zines presenteren en je uitnodigen om ons zelfgebouwde netwerk te verkennen.
Datum: Donderdag 04 april 2019 Locatie: Gouwstraat 3, Rotterdam Entree: Gratis Start: 19:00
Met bijdragen van: Simon Browne, Tancredi Di Giovanni, Paloma García, Rita Graça, Artemis Gryllaki, Pedro Sá Couto, Biyi Wen, Bohye Woo, Roel Roscam Abbing, Manetta Berends, Lídia Pereira, André Castro, Aymeric Mansoux, Michael Murtaugh, Steve Rushton, Leslie Robbins.
Dit project is ontwikkeld in de context van de Master of Arts in Fine Art and Design: Experimental Publishing (XPUB) van het Piet Zwart Instituut, en Varia, Centrum voor Alledaagse Technologie, Rotterdam - april 2019.
