Winter Camp is an event, organized by the Institute of Network Cultures and will take place 3-7 March 2009 in Amsterdam. Network Cultures Winter Camp will be a mix of presentations and work spaces with an emphasis on getting things done. It will be a four-day program of work spaces and plenary presentations, in which a dozen networks (each of which has 5-15 people) can work on their specific current topics.

GOTO10 has been invited to get things done, and we like it. We also plan to have several group hugs, to eat tons of stroopwaffels, to gossip about every networks and drink beers. No, it’s not easy to be a network.

FLOSS+Art is the first book to cover Free and Open Source software (FLOSS) for artists and designers not just as a technical tool, but as an artistic medium that works differently and has its own philosophy, politics and aesthetics.

Thu, 29.1.2009 - 15:30-17:30
Location: Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin

Hosted by: Aymeric Mansoux, with Gisle Frøysland (Piksel), Massimo Banzi (tinker.it, arduino), Martin Howse (XXXXX), Matthew Ratto (critical making), Reto Wettach (Fritzing) and Adam Somlai-Fischer (kitchen budapest).

Unlike software possible to build hardware that is not just a collection of simple primitive electrical systems, or on the other hand, an assemblage of industry built low level components. So what is open about open source hardware? Many embraced Open Source for political reasons, and do the same now with open source hardware. But isn’t that too simple? It is time to shed some light onto the dark side of Open Source hardware.

new release, leek and potato!
