[oldboys] linux and free software freak |
Dear OldBoys, Hello there I am looking for an Old Boy linux and free software freak to come to Brussels (15-16-17 November) at the occasion of a workshop/meeting/symposium we organise. Weč are 3 non profit organisations: one is network for womenčstudies (SOPHIA), one is a place where women without degrees are trained to work with new technologies to find a job (INTERFACE3, www.interface3.be), and the third one is a " media and art " organisation (Constantvzw, www.constantvzw.com and www.constantvzw.com/cyberf. After the Cyberfeminist working days we organised in October 2000, we decide to bring together as you see: academic people, technicians, artists, workers, people responsible for training program to think on: women and new technology, great but in which condition, and what for. There will be here campaigns to attract women to science and technology, we have to be ready to demand not for the equality they prepare for us, but ask for something different, technology can be used for something else that enter the capitalist system as a petite mainč, an old story for Oldboys, but we are desperate for you to come here to tell that story. There will be during these 3 days: workshops on technobiographies, and on freesoftwares and linux, on hardware and software, on constructions and analysing of images and data, there will be lectures, workshops and short presentations, we ll try to exchange experiment, words, strategies, stories, knowledge between theses audiences (workers, technicians, artists, academics), we will exchange learning and teaching. In this perspective, we are looking for someone, to give workshop on linux and free softwares, to explain that a politic point of view can begin from the moment you enter a system, to talk about the issues of the market now, who will be in contact with the teachers working at Interface 3 to define the workshop. Well if one of you is interested to come, we can talk longer on the way to collaborate. And if you know a woman who please send me the information.
