Hi again
At the meeting this week, Serenity and I mentioned the upcoming visit to Australia of this chap who we think is awesome and will no doubt be of interest to many of you (it's not just free software, it's a revolution ;)
Bio attached, links below and more info on Melbourne events, including potential speaker for Software Freedom Day . .
*Links*
My favourite quick and compelling summary - http://www.masternewmedia.org/peer-to-peer-politics-and-its-vision-for-the-f..., especially for those who prefer video to reading
More recent writing re. emerging peer-to-peer common-ist political economy is outlined in "The Coming of the Commons" published on Red Pepper - see article link - http://www.redpepper.org.uk/the-coming-of-the-commons/
Note also Michel's excellent synthesis report on the Collaborative Economy, see link - http://p2pfoundation.net/Synthetic_Overview_of_the_Collaborative_Economy
*Melbourne Events
*As well as participating in Gathering '12http://gathering12.wegatherhere.net/, Michel will be providing 3 public presentations and discussions in Melbourne in September 2012 on:
Peer-to-Peer, Relationality and the Emergence of the Commons Wednesday 12 September 2012 Monday 17 September 2012 Tuesday18 September 2012 More info to follow
We're also planning a 'working session' for people doing P2P food software projects in Melbourne, probably on September 29th.
*Software Freedom Day? * It looks like he will be in Melbourne on Sat 15th September and isn't booked up for anything else. I have put in a tentative morning booking for Software Freedom day to put it on his radar (with a note that there is no money). I'll pass his email onto Alex (and/or whoever else is organising) so you can see if he might do it for free.
If you're not interested just let me know and we'll remove the booking
Cheers Kirsten
