Today is the International Open Hackerspace Day! 👾

I didn’t know about this (thank you for sharing your discovery, @liaizon), but it’s a wonderful coincidence that this very day at 15:00 I’ll be hosting Knitting Our Internet at the newly open SCIFT Makespace! The workshop will most probably be in Italian, but we’ll be open to switch to English if non-Italian speakers are coming.

See this event on Balotta, the local Gancio instance for Bologna 🤘

This is going to be the last stop of the Knitting Our Internet Italy Tour. After the workshop, I’m going to Queen Of Saba’s concert, in case you want to join and see one of the most incredible (and my favorite) artists!

🧶 La Nostra Rete

Labàs, sabato 29 marzo alle ore 15:00 CET

La Nostra Rete è un viaggio interattivo nella storia di Internet e un ripensamento collettivo del suo futuro.

L’attività consiste in un laboratorio in presenza che dà esempi semplici e tangibili di come funziona Internet, mettendo in questione i fondamenti tecnici su cui si basano i social media mainstream di oggi. Il suo obiettivo principale è smascherare i problemi del capitalismo della sorveglianza, della centralizzazione e il loro impatto ambientale.

Dopo aver riconosciuto le sfide digitali che dobbiamo affrontare, le persone partecipanti sono incoraggiate a reinterpretare i social network partendo dalla decentralizzazione e immaginando futuri digitali più umani, corali e partecipativi.

I regret choosing ourinternet.in as the domain for my #workshop

Shortlist for the new, final domain decision. Can you help me decide?

(Consider that the same domain will be used also for other languages, so it should be somewhat understandable and easy to spell for non-English-speaking people)

🪡 Knitting Our Internet 🧶🪡 Knitting Our Internet 🧶An interactive workshop travelling through the history of the Internet, and proposing a collective re-imagining of participatory, decentralised alternatives. This workshop aims at questioning the very essence of today’s social networks, exposing the critical limits given by centralization, monopoly, and surveillance capitalism.

I created my first #zine!

Its title is Knitting Our Internet, and it is quite messy and ugly, but I consider it the essence of what I have been studying/working on for the past couple of years.

I am very grateful to @zelf, who hosted the zine making workshop at #p4p, stimulating me to create this.

I am thinking non-stop about next steps. For sure I will be creating a website for the homonymous #workshop I have been hosting in many different occasions—currently named Fediverse workshop on my website, but very incomplete and not updated.

Then maybe a little story/novel about the history of the #Internet and the current #DWeb, #hacking, #FreeSoftware movements?
