It is not just about trans people or feminism, main focus on hacking. [M. do you have things to contribute, you were in Calafou. She does not have much to say]<br /> Showing the agenda, describing openspace technology<br /> <br /> Main thematic is &quot;hacking with care&quot; so there is the chill zone, the chill hacking for napping, taking care, etc.<br /> There is also the truck...Mag. notes it will need <br /> We also have no internet! That is also a thing people will be working on this morning<br /> <br /> In the spirit of the participatory event, lunch is participatory, potluck lunch -- can buy already made food if we want<br /> If you feel you want to contribute to the very small budget of the THF there is a very small donation box<br /> There is a beautiful map from far away for understanding Montreal -- the park is going to be a space where we can meet if it is sunny there<br /> Talks about other spaces for meeting: QPRIG and consent for men, while wely wely want happens here, also event at casa obscura,<br /> <br /> goes on to explain the 4 principles<br /> - Whoever comes is the right person. Thematics in the call, downsizes trolls, people who are just here to argue<br /> - It starts when it starts<br /> - What happens is the only thing that could happen<br /> - when it's over ... it's over<br /> <br /> The law of two feet: &quot;if you are not learning nor contributing, <br /> <br /> Different roles [3] -- person who hosts should think about documentation and who can do the documentation<br /> 1. Subject maintainer<br /> 2. Note taker(s)<br /> 3. Dynamic Waver<br /> <br /> 3 Tips:<br /> 1. Be brief and direct<br /> 2. Attack Ideas not people<br /> 3. Welcome diversity (it makes the subject richer)<br /> <br /> After talking about documentation, the non-working Mac that is here for everyone, the possibility of hacking the Mac machine and bootstrapping it with Linux, Anne sits down and opens the floor for introductions,<br /> - Give pronoun/name<br /> - How are you feeling?<br /> - What you need?<br /> the 9 of us introduce ourselves<br /> <br /> Anne starts going over agenda, that we will add things, that we might adjust the times/timing<br /> Also that there will have tasks that are disaggregated, etc. <br /> <br /> We get postcards and write what we hope to present to put on the agenda. I am a little anxious writing without thinking and then realizing<br /> <br /> Person running consent workshop:<br /> Workshop from france, switzerland, an anaarchist group of people that are running this workshop<br /> For trans, genderqueer &amp; women only<br /> Really important to be there at the beginning, you can leave whenever you want if you want to, but it's really really difficult to welcome people into a trusting and comfortable space<br /> The workshop is a whole process, the whole workshop is constructed with meaningful organization [thus important to be there at beginning]<br /> - Was planning to do it in French, can manage to translate it. It will be better to have a common language<br /> - She then puts the postcard up<br /> - &quot;It will be here&quot; Anne writes out an &quot;A&quot; space card for it<br /> <br /> Angie presents her and Sara's workshop<br /> &quot;Playing with epistemic power&quot;<br /> About their collaboration after the last 10-11 years. A process they are trying to articulate how they think about critical science literacy. Thinking about the different kinds of power that different kinds of knowledges<br /> - Have some activities plan, an exerciese that is used in class for learning a speicific methodology for understanding basic science articles<br /> - Create new examples or new working models<br /> - Put it this afternoon, but good to have internet for it, so need to see if there will be internet<br /> - Can shift, can move it<br /> <br /> Maggie presents her idea for a workshop<br /> - Discussion about cycle of menstruation and embroidery<br /> - There was a time it was really powerful, the woman was gathering around the full moon, it was a really powerful moment<br /> - But in these times it's seen as a burden, there's an erasure, a covering up, feeling embarrassed<br /> - Other workshop is creating a survival kit and discussion about autonomous space and infrastructure, started a book on houses, but wants to complete the book of houses, what are other houses we could think about<br /> - The truck is here today and tomorrow, saturday she has to go, so trying to figure out timing<br /> <br /> M. presents the visit to the anaracha server, there is no location yet on the agenda, so let's call this the G-spot. <br /> - we will go together to the G spot, if it you want to join of course<br /> - 200 de sue spot, it's where occupy Montreal happened -- it's a huge tower<br /> - It's not a physical body G-spot, but it's a virtualization. The G-spot of a virtual machine. Which we thought was located in Montreal, but it might be shifting from Montreal. We tried to visit the physical space of the anarcha server -- so at 4 pm we are supposed to be there<br /> - We can not take photos, but we can take live drawings -- it's netelligence -- the Cumbit servers are there there -- we could look at the machine<br /> - You need a valid ID the visit is very short. It's about 10 minutes<br /> - At 3:30 we need to take the Metro in order to get there. <br /> <br /> M. then presents the Cryptodance workshop<br /> - Cryptography and collective embodiment, the performance or doing on Saturday<br /> - And then another meeting/discussion about it on Thursday<br /> <br /> I present soldering/sound. M. gets annoyed that we are not following the exact scheduling of what people are following on-line -- it should have been Saturday morning, but Anne intimated that it should happen Friday evening. I go with what she suggest without thinking of the original schedule or intents. As I realize what is going on, I realize I am doing my workshop after the very long workshop that might be emotionally draining. Maybe it <br /> <br /> Then we sign up for the small daily tasks to help keep things going and flowing:<br /> coffee/tea, trash, facilitation, cleaning dishes, light/sound<br /> <br /> Sara asking a question -- how do people feel about being photographed<br /> - Everyone fine except for M. :: wanting it to be non-identificatiable [hands, back of head OK]<br /> <br /> We launch off into the fixing morning!<br /> - House gets made with the help of someone on the street with a ladder<br /> - Printer is hooked up, drivers downloaded, working<br /> - Router retrieved from Anne's house and hooked up to fix the Internet that is down due to power outages</div>
