WEBCAST FRI/SAT/SUN – #OurNetworks 2019 > RE: Infrastructures #CommunityNetworks #ournetworks #switchiton #keepiton
RE: Infrastructures is a 3-day conference in Toronto,, from September20-23 2019, exploring the collective care and maintenance of alternative networking practices—new protocols, peer-to-peer connections, offline-first computing, and community-based governance.
How can these emerging Infrastructures of Repair provide spaces to imagine radically different futures, resist easy co-option by the forces of late-stage capitalism, and work in solidarity as plural networks seeking emancipatory change? To answer this we draw on insights from organizers, technologists, artists, and scholars to ensure the focus is not only on the technical aspects of infrastructure, but also the social and cultural. Their diverse perspectives suggest ways we can make space for livelihoods, solidarity, and survival; draw on history and place to bring our fullest imaginations to this moment; and open ways to think these questions together as we build transitional forms. The event will be simulcast on the Internet Society Livestream Channel.
