Ce week-end on était aussi à #relearn et on a parlé de care et de vulnérabilité entre humains et machines. On vous propose une lecture intéressante sur la maintenance comme pratique de care : https://zenodo.org/record/3236410#.XXO0BNa-jr6

"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.

"Predicting an impossible state of permanent prosperity may well be an act of fear and superstitious hope (…). And predicting doom in difficult times may have more to do with the sorrow and depression of the moment than with any real insight into future possibilities."

"Si nos luttes nous divisent plus qu’elles nous rassemblent, nous perdons. Si nos luttes contiennent plus de rage autodestructrice que de joie motrice, nous perdons. Si nos théories nous font faire l’économie de la complexité, de la nuance, du rapport au réel, nous perdons."

this is an excellent lens to understand why Becky Chambers's work is both hugely important and totally written off by men

RT @kaytaylorrea@twitter.com

when Men in Genre™ get really obsessive about writing things that are Dark because that’s the only way to write True and Interesting and Important stories it just reinforces that they’ve completely ignored foundational SFF works by women

Hey hey !

Le samedi 22 juin, on fait un atelier d'imagination/écriture cyberturfuminisme avec @leRESET et @LaQuadrature !

On va imaginer des technologies féministes, selon une méthode de @spideralex de Calafou.

On aura du thé chaud ou froid, des jus, des gâteaux, et ce sera à prix libre, à La Paillasse, 226 rue St Denis à Paris.

J'ai super hâte
