📻 Quand peut-on rédiger une biographie de scientifique sur #Wikipédia ? A l'occasion de l'éditathon de La Casemate sur les femmes et l'énergie, ma résidence a eu les honneurs de RCF Radio.

Un beau (et long !) reportage polyphonique qui reflète bien l'intensité de l'événement grenoblois de la semaine dernière

www.rcf.frUn éditathon Wikipédia pour rendre visibles les femmes scientifiques | Le magazine des sciencesCette semaine, on s’intéresse à un chiffre : 20 %. C’est le faible pourcentage de biographies de femmes scientifiques sur Wikipédia en français. Alors pour le faire augmenter, un “éditathon” était organisé jeudi 10 avril à la Casemate de Grenoble. Une sorte de marathon d’édition pour créer, traduire, ou améliorer des pages sur l’encyclopédie libre. Pour cette 8e édition, le thème était l’hydroélectricité, en lien avec le centenaire de la Houille blanche. Près de 50 volontaires ont donc tenté de mettre en avant les femmes scientifiques et réduire les biais de genre.Au total, 20 biographies ont été créées ou éditées et 8 portraits ont été dessinés tout au long de cette soirée, placée sous le signe des énergies. Helen Thom Edwards, responsable scientifique dans la conception et la construction d’un accélérateur à particule aux Etats-Unis, Janet Zaph Briggs, experte du molybdène, Maryse François-Xausa, ingénieure hydraulicienne et dirigeante d'entreprise, Salinee Tavaranan, ingénieure thaïlandaise spécialiste des énergies solaires... Toutes ces biographies sont à retrouver en ligne sur Wikipédia.

"Who Owns Free Knowledge? Examining Power, Platformization, and the Promise of the #Commons"

Am Donnerstag, 10. April, findet eine interdisziplinäre Konferenz von @Weizenbaum_Institut und @wikimediaDE zu Fragen rund um die Zukunft Freien Wissens statt.

Es wird beleuchtet, wer in Zeiten wachsender Abhängigkeiten auf #Wissen zugreift, es produziert und kontrolliert, und was dies für verschiedene Akteur*innen bedeutet.

“The real antidote to exclusion isn’t inclusion, it’s commoning.”

Said Dan McQuillan. (Because: “Adjusting the boundaries between the included and the excluded does nothing to challenge the fundamental premise on which exclusionary solutions are based.”)

Am just re-reading the end of Resisting AI for a talk tmrw.

Friends who are interested in #cooperatives, #commons, and #solidarityeconomy, please make a donation to GEO.coop. I found GEO when I was first learning about solidarity economy, submitted an article or two, and ended up joining the collective. A look at the website shows what a unique independent resource GEO is, covering organizing efforts around the world, sharing the work of leading theorist-practitioners like Jessica Gordon-Nembhard and @luisrazeto . :TwinPines:

#Commoms sind gemeinschaftlich regulierte wirtschaftliche Güter, die in der #Wirtschaft oft künstlich verknappt werden um der Tragik der Allmende zu entgehen. #Olstrom hat gezeigt dass mit gut designten Regularien diese Güter zum Vorteil der #Gemeinschaft organisiert werden können. Insofern würde ich tendenziell manche #Genossenschaften und das #Fediverse als #Commons einstufen, wegen der gemeinschaftlichen Regularien. @commonsnetwork

We cannot rely on the US to protect or nurture the commons. Think of the US as a giant shopping mall with guns. That’s it. That’s the whole philosophy right there.

We want to safeguard the infrastructure of civilisation, we have to do it ourselves here in the EU before it’s too late. And we can start by acknowledging our own failures and redoubling our commitment to fundamental rights and democracy (and not limit our own potential by having every single decision framed by the fucking “Single Market”).

You want to end up like the US? Then let’s keep going as we are. You want something different? We must invest in the commons, embrace our diversity, embrace equity, and move to an inclusive, post-capitalist existence.

It’s up to us. The bacteria in places we haven’t even visited yet that will survive long after we’ve made ourselves extinct – should that be the route we decide to take (because yes, it is a decision) – don’t really give two shits either way.

This is a strawman.

People are (rightly) upset at billionaries stealing both from the commons and from everybody else.

The problem is that right now #copyright (that backs #copyleft) and #dataprotection (#GDPR and so on...) are the only (weak) shield people have to fight back.

They are in fact too weak.

We need a total ridefinition of #PublicDomain, turing the default to a strongly protected #common that can be used freely but only to produce more content (#software, #art...) under the same public domain regime.

We need to turn unprotected #commons to an exception.

And we need stronger data protection and privacy laws, that grant people the right to be paid for any abuse of their data an exponentially growing amount (say 1€ for the first bit, 2€ for the second, 4€ for the third and so on).

Finally, we need to get rid of billionaries. Hopefully, without too much violence.

I think this is a really cool style, it's simplified and abstract enough to transmit a positive and childlike (?) excitement, and complex enough to celebrate the intelligence and craft, hard work and creativity of this effort.

I think the current thing with billionaires and profit sort of pisses all over the rocket scene, I don't care if they all explode over (or under) the water 😃

#art @art #commons #мир

colorful and simplified painting of an upright rocket on its launch pad held by a supporting framework. next to this are more frameworks, cranes, a few workers and trucks, and a building that probably housed the rocket as it was built, and then a crowd of people, onlookers to the impending rocket launch.

the tech people loving the pollution of local space are the same people who create and love the pacific gyre…. There is no technical solution to this, unless that is you think of the state and its institutions as social-and-political-technologies ( democracy as a social and political technology, one of many alternatives) #politics lets say then that democracy is filling the #commons with pollution…

The appropriation of the commons takes place through dirt. i read the malfeasant posts this morning on the glories of capitalism in space and the image of the plastic garbage in the pacific gyre, this is how t’ commons are appropriated, become property, “property is marked” (as Serres said so well.)…The tragedy of the commons is rather exactly this. #politics #commons

TIL via @benwerd that governments in France and Germany (through their 18F equivalents) made an #opensource alternative to Notion/an offline Google Docs docs.numerique.gouv.fr/login/

(IMHO a great publically-funded and maintained #commons project because other private models haven't succeeded… IIRC this is what Sandstorm tried to make a decade ago, before their sunset???)
