- Day 3 “Away from the “Internet of Ecocide”: inviting radically open participation in Internet protocols standardisation” with @becha

In this lecture, Vesna is going to both issue catastrophic warnings, and invite utopian hope; I will introduce IETF, ICANN, W3C, RIPE, DNS and many other acronyms - and invite you to “consider the squirrels”.

Less than two weeks to , and I am so looking forward to seeing @becha and @jazoza and so many others again, also to meeting @shusha and @parismarx in person.

Yet my happy anticipation is still tinged with some disappointment. We received over 150 responses to our open call, and we just couldn't fit everyone in 😢

I firmly believe that spaces expand to accommodate all the people who need to be in that space together. Maybe time needs to be persuaded to do the same.

– Dancing at the Crossroads
8th–11th May 2024, Linz (AT)

“Dancing at the crossroads” and invites its community of artists and technologists, activists and developers to focus on the consequences of work automation and data extraction, the environmental impact of pervasive and all-encompassing computing, and the social consequences of a perhaps resistible rise of total AI.
