intention-review
We facilitate an online workshop on “Paragogy and Ubuntu.” It doesn’t go well. We want to understand why.
what-happened
Participants have trouble installing the open source voice chat software Mumble that we suggested they use. There is little activity on the shared Etherpad.
what-happened-perspectives
We briefly discuss trade-offs between community and individual projects. Conference organizers suggest a “good outcome” is just increased awareness of the discourse around peer learning and peer production.
learnings-changes
We strengthen our shared skills at working with risk by devising the PAR.
what-else-should-change-going-forward
We hope to establish a distributed “mutual aid society”—but we need to work harder to make sure that it’s really mutual.
