Meeting summary

things) in its programmes (mchua,

group they work with - they're involved with a bunch of
FOSS-friendly groups in the Netherlands like GenderChangers)
(mchua,

into the local FOSS/hacker/maker community. (mchua,

- Presentation focuses on the Masters program at
the Piet Zwart institute within Willem de Kooning. (mchua,

(mchua,

- "We offer a Master programme focused on a
critical engagement with the culture of the Internet and computer
media, their artistic design, technology and theory. It is a small
course with a highly international community of students and
teachers, and a strong emphasis on personal contact and
collaboration." (mchua,
17:19:23)
- Right from the program description: "...Free
and Open Source Software and do-it-yourself ethic play a key role in
the programme. Aside from its obvious benefit of giving you...
toolchains at zero cost, Open Source software tends to be extremely
modular, open to DIY and custom applications. It gives value to
seemingly outmoded hardware, and provides you with building blocks
for your own projects rather than solutions that strongly

(mchua,

- A lot of their projects seem to deal with nifty
social hacks - "what if you could delete your entire web 2.0
presence by the click of a button?" ("web suicide") etc.
