When did terms such as "warp speed" or "transporter" or even "robot" first enter common use? Thanks to passionate lexicographer, Jesse Sheidlower, the answers are just a click away. On Thursday at 10 AM PT, in this Facebook Live event, come meet the Editor of the new Historical Dictionary of Science Fiction. (https://sfdictionary.com/) He'll take us on a tour of this new online lexicon of science fiction terms, some 1,800 entries, from “actifan” to “zine.”...

Proof of Attendence Protocol (POAP) is a way to create fun event badges on Ethereum. But, there are some downsides: a centralized server holds the images and event info, minting on-chain costs money, and we can't tell if someone actually attended the event. But, we can change this - we can already create off-chain, peer-to-peer event badges for free, using tools like MetaMask!

Participants will learn about the connection between the cultural-psycho-somatic spaces we occupy, and what we create. How our desires shape the worlds we build.

Web archiving is the practice of temporal versioning and preservation of representations of resources on the web. An archival replay is the practice of the playback of the archived historical representation of web resources while maintaining the essence and fidelity. Decentralized content-addressable file systems such as InterPlanetary Filesystem (IPFS) and decentralized naming systems such as InterPlanetary Name System (IPNS) can offer the opportunity to preserve all the historical versions of...

Only a quarter of the Internet’s users today have complete, open access to it. Most worryingly, internet shutdowns are on the rise, with oppressive regimes controlling access to freedom of speech, the press and information online. This censorship threatens democracy, denies human rights and fuels global inequality. Mysterium is an open-source protocol making a borderless, censorship-resistant layer of the internet. The global and permissionless network functions similarly to Tor, but with...

By utilizing a decentralized network of users that track and interact with physical objects, can autonomous systems be granted agency in the real world? In this talk, I explore novel forms of interaction between humans, artificial users, objects, and places, as well as the dangers and benefits of emergence in decentralized systems. Participants will leave with new ideas about how virtual or net native entities can connect with the physical world.

Why is it that on the internet the best information is often locked behind paywalls? Brewster Kahle, founder of The Internet Archive, believes it’s time to turn that scarcity model upside down and build an internet based on abundance. Here he'll share a new project — Democracy’s Library — a free, open, online compendium of government research and publications from around the world. Why? Because democracies need an educated citizenry to thrive. How we can start to abandon the...

This session will cover what network organizations are, how they are different from other organizations and the vision of how we think this will change the nature of how people work together and what Socialroots is doing to support this transition to a less hierarchical way of self organizing.

Networked Autonomous Organisms combine Trust Networks, Liquid Democracy, and Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). DAOs continue to have issues with governance that Trust Networks address well. Trust Networks are social graphs whose links represent how the source node trusts the target node. They are akin to cryptographic webs of trust . They have a unique inherent capacity for agile, efficient collective decision-making, sometimes called Liquid Democracy (see...

In addition to introducing two projects people can get involved in, this talk will invite participants to rethink their assumptions about how power should flow in online spaces, and how to design interfaces accordingly. By exploring two experimental prototypes for online governance, CommunityRule and Modpol, this talk will pose questions about what kinds of assumptions we should integrate into tools for self-governing communities.
