Documentation

Here’s an update on the documentation process and what decisions have been made. I know in certain cases there has been disagreement, but we’ve been working on this for a while and I think we all need to trust each other. We haven’t always been able to come to a perfect, explicit consensus on every issue - it’s difficult given people's limited availability. But I’ve been listening to everyone and am confident that this mix represents a fair and realistic way to proceed.

-3k ECF proposal was submitted by Commons Network on Tuesday, to cover a graphic reporter and video capacity (scripting and post-production) by Zemos 98. The idea is that they will work with the technical capacity from MediaLabPrado to script interview questions that are useful both for the longer video of interviews that MediaLab will produce, and for Zemos to post-produce three short thematic videos using the same material.

-The money (900 euro) required for matrix overlay work from Media Lab Prado/ Ana (post-producing the matrix into a shareable, professional resource) can come from the OSIFE budget.

-There will be space for participants from the workshops to create their own documentation in a decentralized manner - e.g. if people want to do a textual blog post, podcast, etc. in the service of the ECA and the commons movement: these forms will be varied and open and aren’t in the budget. Hopefully this can be worked into the facilitation – and perhaps collected as traces through the semantic wiki process Remix the Commons is proposing.

-There are resources to support the travel and accommodation needed for Remix the Commons. As suggested in a recent email, there’s been some misunderstanding of this proposal. I apologize if I’ve contributed to that. But I really don’t think there is a conflict. We just need to consider this with the facilitation and haven’t had the opportunity to really dig into it yet since we’re working at a distance.

Dear Nicole and all

The issue is not : do we have a conflict or not ? It is what are the expectations of the meeting and how the coherency of the methology will give us the capacity to meet these expectations ? In term of production/documentation, I understand that the main process is oriented for doing a diagnostic on the limits commoners meet in their action, that will be done by creating the matrix and its final representation, the "shareable, professional resource". I am curious to know more about what it will look like concretly and how it will be used as a tool by commoners. The other work decided is the video prod that will be done by ZEMOS/Medialab. All that does not respond to the proposal we have made.And both, to preserve the coherency of the methodology decided, and to not lost energy in diverse parallele processes, it is preferable to withdraw it. I am sure that we will have orther opportunities to explore different approaches of documentation another time.

Lets go ahead with the preparation of the meeting.

Just letting you know that I'm only seeing this now. It's unfortunate we couldn't work together to figure out how to incorporate the semantic wiki because I think many people agree that it's useful. But I understand what you mean about the dynamic and energy.

Hi @nicoleleonard - #RomaLifesMatter - Detox Dance workshop would need assistance for technical support, space and documentation. I am looking for persons being able to give some support in organisation. Thank you for mailing to [email protected] for details, specific contacts, tips, links.

I don’t know where to ask, but I can’t find the form for repayment of tickets? Can somebody help me out?
