still/open
Good news!I made it into the still/open workshops being run by ANAT. A open/still group blog has been set up for the project. From the about:
Still Open will be as a series of free two-day workshops in Perth, Melbourne and Brisbane, each accompanied by a public evening forum. Facilitators will work with 15 artists, scientists, writers and developers in each city to introduce open source modes of thinking and resources for collaborative and distributed development; to provide hands on experience; and to initiate local networks and projects.
Still Open focuses on both the practice and theory of open source which can be applied through networked art and software development, print and online publishing, and in the scientific arena where the open science movement encourages a collaborative environment in which science can be pursued by anyone who is inspired to discover something new about the natural world.
The facilitators who will help run the workshops are:
Alessandro Ludovico (Italy) editor in chief Neural
Andy Nicholson (Australia) new media activist Engage Media
Beatriz da Costa (USA) interdisciplinary artist/researcher, open science
