== About Us ==


==== Who was Anarcha? ====
=== ENG ===
AnarchaServer is a feminist server which contributes to the maintenance of autonomous infrastructure on the Internet for feminists projects.


Anarcha was an African American slave woman. She was one of the seventy-five slaves who worked the Wescott plantation, just on the outskirts of Montgomery, Alabama.
It is an open project, even though moderated where we privilege trust, consensus, autonomy and feminist collaboration for deciding our next adventures in inhabiting this feminist infrastructure, in synchronicity with other feminist servers initiatives.  


Anarcha went into labor one day. Three days later, she was still in labor. Dr Marion Sims was called in to assist the delivery. He writes in his autobiography that he used forceps on the fetus’s head but that he really didn’t know what he was doing since he’d had so little experience with the device. We don’t know whether the baby survived the ordeal. We do know that the mother experienced several vaginal tears from the birthing. She became incontinent afterwards due to the damage.
AnarchaServer has some kind of presence in different locations around the world such as calafou, belgium, france, germany, greece, iceland, the netherlands,  mexico, sweeden, uruguay ...


A few days later, the master of the plantation sent Anarcha to Dr Sims hoping he could repair the damage to his slave, as she could not hold her bowls or bladder. As her master’s chattel, her condition reduced her value considerably.
Our politics are transfeminists, anticapitalist, decolonialist and aim at creating interspecies solidarity with other bodies, nature and machines. Our group of sysadmin is currently composed by different non-binaries, cis women and one cis men. We use English and Spanish (even-tough those are not always our first languages) for our internal communications.  


Sims took in the patient reluctantly. He put her up on his examination table, on her hands and knees and, using a modified pewter spoon to expand the walls of her vagina, he accidentally released the pressure that held her uterus in an awkward position. Anarcha felt immediate relief as the change in air pressure helped her uterus to relocate back into its proper position.
AnarchaServer can provide to other feminists the following infrastructure: Blogs in the wordpress farm, Encrypted files sending, Encrypted pastebin, Standard polls and events scheduling, Online surveys, Archiving online a feminist website that will close soon, Uploading pictures and videos about cyberfeminism in our repository of collective memories....  


Through an agreement with her master, Anarcha became Dr Sims's guinea pig. She regularly underwent surgical experiments, while positioned on Sims’s table, squatting on all fours, and fully awake without the comfort of any anesthesia. It was commonly accepted that African Americans had a higher tolerance for pain than their white counterparts. Commonly accepted but utterly wrong.  
If you are interested in any of these options, please contact us at anarchaserver@autistiche.org and we will see what we can do. Please take into account that we can not always answer. To coordinate among ourselves, we privilege the no pressure policy for advancing tasks that are freely chosen based on the energy, dreams and availability of AnarchaServer inhabitants.


Anarcha’s fistula (from her vaginal tears) was repaired by Sims. Sims thus became the leading expert in repairing this damage that seemed to occur in a good number of births by slave women. Though Sims was sent many slave women with fistulas, we know from his biography that he experimented repeatedly on Anarcha, as well as two other slaves, Betsy and Lucy.
=== CAST ===


Anarcha was experimented upon, and drugged up later, not to ease her pain as much as to stifle her moans. It has been calculated that she had been operated on, perhaps, 34 times. She, Betsy, Lucy, and countless others helped Dr Sims hone his techniques and create his gynecological tools. Though on display in museums, many of Dr Sims’s tools have modern counterparts that are used today.


Anarcha, Betsy, and Lucy left no written legacy. Slaves were forbidden to read and write, a crime punishable by death. 
AnarchaServer es un servidor feminista que contribuye al mantenimiento de una infraestructura autónoma en Internet para proyectos feministas.


And though science today looks back on Sims’s work ambiguously, truly unsure as to his level of success, or whether he should be credited as the father of gynecology, we now know who the mothers of modern gynecology were: they were the nameless and faceless slave women upon whom Dr Sims experimented.
Es un proyecto abierto, aunque moderado, en el que privilegiamos la confianza, el consenso, la autonomía y la colaboración para decidir nuestras próximas aventuras al habitar esta infraestructura feminista, en sincronía con otras iniciativas de servidores feministas.


Today we have just three names: Anarcha, Betsy, and Lucy. It is our hope that these names will never be.

=== Transitional data container ===
 
We talk about transitional data when data needs to remain available only for a while and then should be erased properly. We have set up specific services such as:
* Encrypted files sending (Jirafeau https://transitional.anarchaserver.org/jirafeau/)
* Encrypted pastebin where the server has zero knowledge of pasted data. (Zerobin https://transitional.anarchaserver.org/zerobin/). Data is encrypted/decrypted in the browser using 256 bits AES.
* Standard polls and events scheduling (Open Sondage https://transitional.anarchaserver.org/date/)
* Online surveys (LimeSurvey https://transitional.anarchaserver.org/poll/). Only available to inhabitants.
* Next Cloud (Upload documents, pictures, decks, surveys https://transitional.anarchaserver.org/cloud/apps/forms/). Only available to inhabitants.
 
=== Nekrocemetery container ===
 
We talk about dead data when data has gone offline and it needs to be archived in a way that it remains possible to bring it back to life again.  Our nekrocemetery is oriented at feminist websites and projects that are offline and could become zombie data.

==== Why a feminist server? ====
=== Repository container ===


----
Collective memories, a [https://repository.anarchaserver.org/ cyberfeminist repository] for archiving images, sounds and videos set up with piwigo [[Repository|Container repository]].


Feminist servers have been a topic of discussion, a partially-achieved aim and a set of slow-political practices among an informal group of transfeminists interested in creating a more autonomous infrastructure to ensure that data, projects and memory of feminist groups are properly accessible, preserved and managed.  The need for feminist servers is a response to: the unethical practices of multinational ICT companies acting as moral and hypocrite censors;  gender based online violence in the form of trolling and hateful machoists harassing feminist or women activists online and offline; the centralization of the internet and its transformation into a consumption sanctuary and a space of surveillance, control and tracking of dissent voices by government agencies among others. All these factors have led to a situation where the internet is not a safe space and where it is common to see feminist and activist work being deleted, censored, and/or prevented from being seen, heard or read. Freedom of expression is part of the feminist struggle and TransFeminists can contribute by providing collectively the knowledge and means to ensure their right to speak up remains accessible online, offline and wherever and under any format expression emerges. There will be no feminist internet without properly managed autonomous feminist servers. This is about regaining control and gaining autonomy in the access and management of our data and collective memories. It is also about being able to have feminist mailing lists, pads, wikis, content management systems, social networks and any other online services managed by feminist tech collectives. It is also of course about continuing to argue that social justice in technologically driven environments needs a more gender and culturally diverse presence in general. To achieve those objectives, many sessions during the THF discussed questions such as: what are the purposes of a Feminist Server? What  makes a server autonomous and feminist? Where are possible (socially sustainable) models for those servers? How do we create trust among us to develop cooperative approaches to the management of those spaces of resistance and transformation?
=== Sonification ===


Two feminist servers projects were rebooted during the THF!: the Systerserver [http://systerserver.net] project which was originally launched by Genderchangers and the Eclectic Tech Carnival (/etc) and which will focus on hosting online services; and this Anarchaserver which was launched by Calafou inhabitants and people involved in the organisation of the THF! and will focus on hosting data.  
If you want to listen to AnarchaServer please [http://anarchaserver.org:8000/ connect here and you will ear a sonification of the server]. We have a icecast2 streaming tool installed in AS.


Anarchaserver currently hosts a mediawiki for the documentation of the THF! and a WordPress farm. Anarchaserver is an open project, even though moderated, and we are using the THF mailing lists and an IRC channel to coordinate the several tasks that need to be achieved.
