Notes on Networks with an attitude, Tuesday 9 April
[style:theme-teal][style:css-sidetoc][style:css-sidetoc-num0]
[TOC]


*** Starting the day
offline; working on pointing the antenna to connect to Wireless Antwerp, which will be connected to the etherbox.

accepting the risk of no internet [ w h ich is dead so... ]

desperately waiting for 5G internet (or not)

Setting some community guidelines:

- Watch your cappucino ordering, making sure everything can speak. 

Diversity is important
- How to make sure all voices are heard? Step-up ... step-up! This means: If you are talking a lot step up to give more time for others, if you are silent a lot step up to bring your voice to the room.
- Thermometer gestures: non-verbal moving/dancing hands together up for agreement, in the middle = so so. both won't be discussed. but moving hands down means : not agreeing then we discuss.
- No stupid questions, no stupid answers
- No racism, sexism, transphobia, goodism, capitalism
- Say yes to care (everything is ok, until somebody says no?)

Space care
- The importance of unfolding and folding the event: infrastructural support is for everyone. Proposal: stop at 17:30, organise transport.

Image taking
- Red tape means yes, ok to be photographed
- Fuzzy logic: avoid portraits, close-ups of faces
- Put your pictures on etherbox before publishing them on-line. T o remove images , y ou can log in to etherbox and erase them (commandline) :

• ssh pi@etherbox.local
• login: pi
• pass: raspberry

If not comfortable, add pictures to this list: http://etherbox.local/pad/p/remove  
- T he etherbox gallery can be accessed here http://etherbox.local/images/gallery.html

Recording Audio + video
- Public events will be recorded (video)
- No video of working processes/individuals (video on Monday was consented by speakers)
- I f for memory reasons, someone wants to record something, you check with the group .





*** Clustering / fragmentation

After that, time for fragmentation and clustering!
 Trying to note ideas per table (10m)
- Re-grouping/clustering after

Emphasis on Interconnectedness


Table 1 (11 o'clock)

Network
-Wireless Antwerp
- 5G giving to public use
- transport network
- VHF

Attitude/Points of VIew
-Advoca c y for Percentage of Public Access
- rejection: S urveillance & M onetizing Antwerp for R esearch and T rickery - S.M.A.R.T
- attitude : questioning
Caution Analysis 
-Proactive , hands-on

building an infrastructure by shipping resources to other places (eg palo alto)

how " other " cultures deal with technology ? - refusal of certain technologies; what possible attitudes

Wireless Antwerp - setting up the antenna for the boat can be a practical way to see what this means
(an afternoon activity)

interested in the cafe boat message board (at the museum, yesterday)
the ad-hoc postal network
How to implement that! << I'd like to think about that too!

table 2 :

Networks
5g and the smart world
What would a queer slicing mean
think in terms of metaphors : 
instead of refusal, an attitude of and-and
the most basic form of communication : telepathy, and all other things is augmentation
tools: storytelling, water, crystals , trees, mountains ...

Attitudes
decolonial and queer point of views (and problems within de-colonial: it is a colonial idea)  
ch 'i x i - aymara: a mixing
dividual pov : we're not separated and discrete entities, but we are interconnected and inhabited
life is in the center of the network : empathy
spirituality as empha the tic attitude
A vivid network
indigenous , cyborg
one body is a network in itself : many living entities there

table 3

http://etherbox.local/pad/p/snails
Attitudes / Points of View
snails are forming a network : slow but connected
multispecies networks :
ex rodents eat fiber cables
snail network rfc? Pigeon network rfc  

•   https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2549

Different ways to finish the kill of the internet
Finding alternative networks and meshing mobile devices together
Networks and their consequences: how network images are linked to earth/natural words/images

asynchronous/small/redistributed networks

building a new mesh network where everyone takes part equally

how do we kill the internet ?
How can we kill the internet?
- physical software attack
- social engineering attack

network vs physical environment : cutting trees for implementing 5 G 
language: taken from ecology: clouds, space...
5G affecting environment

futuropias : imaginaries that can be pushed to incluse new ones, future over 50ys > 300 ys
can be linked to storytelling, other narratives

Queering networks: other ways to keep in touch
without being force to comply

Table 4

Attitudes
what is dead? what is living? 
how can dead be also inbetween (see: internet) (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tardigrade )
notion of fermentation: dead thing is living in another way
what is the bacteria in the network? Human beings?
what is the web? is it the network of people? or the wires?
non-binary possibilities of network agents
attention, money, love - related to networks
predatory aspect of the internet - takes all attention , work, social relations

talking about topologies. Network as a verb, not an object. Thinking about networks. Gnutella!

spying as a way of relating and networking - to spy
IRC is collaboration tool - to collaborate

network ing as a verb
Other vocabularies, network topologies : graphs : nodes, knots, fabric , contact zones...

intensities, as another way of discussing networks.

TABLE 5

(david):
    resource networks <> economics (supply-demand, signalling, etc)
    "network is not good enough" ... "same problem as in p2p - What is, what constitutes a peer"
    post-liberal networks, network membership, cognitive dissonance
    "I want new comrades" and will share a manifesto
    supply and demand
    would like new comrades

(cristina):
    genealogy of server/servant , how is serving used in peer-to-peer distributed networks
    varia group:
        (self-organized artist-designer-programmer goup in rotterdam)
        * What does it mean to have own digital infrastructure (as a group)? create fabric of networks
        * How to inter-relate with other groups?:
            ->>> [:TOTALISM:intersub] ... http://totalism.org/intersub
How the term server has changed over time
book (Markus Krajewski - THE SERVER)

David: 'I have a tool to turn etherpads in more readable documents'
Define 'more readable', maybe? :
    see http://e2h.totalism.org !

martino:
    "what is a network is INFLUENCED by the recent history of internet tech"
    how much our understanding of network is linked to US history US imperialism
" " net neutrality " " for instance [is a scam]

relating politics of the network to geopolitics

* The piratebox Etherpad was last updated June 2018
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered since then


* omniscence > telepathy (no communication > communication)

* upkeep etherpad:
    install the basic plugins !
    update it !

* problems of etherpad common editing:
    defining roles (EDITOR - invoke for merging, etc)
