Hi there,

I'm curating openhere, a 4 day festival in Dublin at the end of this month
all about the digital commons.
*Open*here  www.openhere.data.ie will bring together a transdisciplinary
community of
critical theorists, engineers, artists, designers and industry
professionals to expand debates surrounding the digital commons. Key
points of discussion will include the conflictive spaces of the
digital commons, digital policy, disruptive
wireless practices, alternative spectrum ownership models,
next-generation networks and the political economy of infrastructure.

I'm really hoping you could forward this might be of interest to you and
that you might take a moment to forward this information to your
 respective networks. I'm also attaching a flyer.

Kind Regards,

Rachel O'Dwyer

What does it mean to be open today?

CTVR / The Telecommunications Research Centre, in collaboration with
the Dublin Art and Technology Association (D.A.T.A) present Openhere,
a free four day festival that addresses social, technological and
cultural issues surrounding the notion of the digital commons.

If we speak of ‘the commons’ today as a general phenomenon, this has
much to do with the modes of production, consumption and distribution
that have emerged over the last two decades around information and
communication technologies. This period has seen a growing emphasis on
the social and juridical implications of sharing in the online domain,
where a range of nonmarket and non-proprietary activities such as open
source software, remix cultures and commons-based peer-production have
lead some to propose the advent of a ‘digital socialism’. However, as
sharing and openness become the watchwords of the new corporation - as
the commons is increasingly central to capitalism - such positions are
no longer straightforward.

Open Here will bring together a transdisciplinary community of
critical theorists, engineers, artists, designers and industry
professionals to expand debates surrounding the digital commons.  Key
points of discussion will include the conflictive spaces of the
digital commons, tactical media, net-art, digital policy, disruptive
wireless practices, alternative spectrum ownership models,
next-generation networks and the political economy of infrastructure.

This festival takes the form of talks, presentations, workshops,
discussions and screenings. It will be held in The Science Gallery and
in CTVR headquarters in Trinity College from June 28th to July 1st,
2012.
