Good turnout at #rojava solidarity demo in malmo

"Collective Conditions is a worksession which experiments with the generative potential of #codes of #conduct, complaints procedures, bug reports and copyleft licenses. We understand these socio-technical #protocols as #artistic and #activist #media and are curious about the role they can play in the (different) imagination of complex collectivities.

By ’complex #collectivity’ we mean, for example, non-normative human #constellations, or collectives where participants with radically different needs, backgrounds and #agencies come together. ’Complex collectivity’ can be self-chosen, or be the result of structural forces such as laws, racism, technology, wars, austerity, queerphobia and ecological conditions.

[...]

The worksession is inspired by trans*feminist collective practices, anti-harassment and allyship-work, non-violent communication, score-making, #decolonial and #intersectional #activism, but also by ways of doing developed within Free Culture and Free, Libre and Open Source software. Collective Conditions focuses on a-polarizing methods, #affirmative habits that can stretch and reorient frameworks, that represent new vocabulary, gestures and forms of expression[...]"

don't you just love it when you want to launch 'firefox' in dmenu and accidentally keep launching 'fire' by David Bucciarelli?

I still need to find out why this is packaged in distros like Debian, Manjaro, Ubuntu.

High densities of visible fibre optic wire as part of the street level network #infrastructure of #Bucharest. While many of the connections have now been buried underground, the cable junctions are still visible in some neighbourhoods.

Did you know it's possible to pin multiple tags in the Mastodon interface? Handy way to follow #lgm #lgm2019 #lgm19 #libregraphicsmeeting from a distance..

This saturday 24/05/19 is another #Linux Presentation Day event in #LeesZaal in #Rotterdam from 10:00 to 16:00

English.

A tenant consultation and introduction session at Varia by the Bond Precaire Woonvormen on the 6th of May between 15:00 and 20:00.

BPW is a #solidarity movement organised by volunteers who support each other based on the conviction that housing is a fundamental right that must be protected.

Please feel welcome to join us for a day of discussion, co-learning and reflection on the #housing situation in #Rotterdam, our rights as tenants and how we can support each other to work towards solutions for more safe, secure and affordable housing.

"Hack the Earth 2019 > #Futurotopias - Communities to change everything

19/22 April in #Calafou, Vallbona d'Anoia

This HTE is an invitation to face a world that seems to go from bad to worse, where the options, imaginaries and futures that they propose to us oscillate more and more between cynicism and dystopia. We propose to build our collective desires and needs from the futurotopias we need. Futurotopias that allow the circulation of ideas, fabulations and dreams.

Speculative practices and imaginaries, #degrowth and #feminist practices, joyful actions and radical tenderness.

It's not just about projecting ourselves into the futures we want, but about rescuing what already happened in the past and putting the magnifying glass on everything that is developing in our present, it's about stopping the future of shit that suffocates us and putting in the center the communities that are already changing everything, spinning futures here and now. This HTE proposes to rediscover and re-invent our margins for manoeuvre, highlighting projects, networks and communities that are already changing everything around them.

[..]

Because the sum of our degrees of happiness is an indicator of our revolutionary potential. See you in Hack the Earth 2019 "
