Arquitecta urbanista, me flipan los mapas, adoro la ficción especulativa y hago investigación sobre comunes urbanos, escenarios de futuro y planificación disruptiva.

Me mudo a Bluesky porque si podemos ir de las plazas a la nube (como decía Bookcamping), también del cielo azul a las calles.

doi.org/10.5281/zeno...

We unpick the tech industry’s marketing, hype, & harm; and we argue for safeguarding higher education, critical
thinking, expertise, academic freedom, & scientific integrity.

Países como Alemania ni siquiera han firmado esta declaración inconsecuente que se limita a mendigar unos mínimos insultantes frente a un genocidio. Europa es un pozo oscuro.
This joint statement, which just asks Israel to ensure access of humanitarian aid and let NGOs work, has not been signed by Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania. Their governments are not even willing to request this. Appalling.

La UE es el MAYOR socio comercial de Israel.

Decir “no al genocidio” pero no sancionar ni suspender relaciones y acuerdos preferenciales es cosmética.

Es urgente poner fin a la complicidad europea⬇️
Nos ha dejado Osfa Veladoz, aka José Pérez de Lama, y el mundo es un poco menos luminoso.

Rest in power, Osfa, las máquinas rebeldes te echarán de menos.
I love this screenshot! Thanks for sharing it :)

🔴 #TheTechPeopleWant is on!

We are discussing why people want #OpenData with the authors of Towards a Sustainable Data Commons Ecosystem.

It's key to keep in mind that "Without sustainability there is no sovereignty" says @anamandes.bsky.social

Join the discussion today and tomorrow.
A conversation with:
Solana Larsen
Merrin Muhammed Ashraf - @itforchange.bsky.social
Jugal Mahabir [email protected]
Arturo Sánchez Pineda - Cevale2VE & LA-CoNGA physics
and Constanza Figueroa - amigashacker.club
Tomorrow, we are presenting some insights from the study on Sustainable Data Commons Ecosystems Semra Sonmez and I have done for @okfn.bsky.social

The commons are the perfect framework to rethink openness: communities, co-governance and care will make sharing data and content sustainable again :)
The Tech People Want Online Summit – Open Knowledge Foudation
We’re bringing together advocates, civil society organisations, government officials and forward-thinking creators to reimagine technology from the ground up.

Our last collective endeavour was the Urban Comons Handbook.

Now, we seek to expand contemporary debates around urban commons with a pluriversal perspective, engaging the diversity of people, places, cultures, and knowledge involved in sharing practices.

If you're critical of the US government and you are planning to cross the US border any time soon, today is a good day to review EFF's border search pocket guide: www.eff.org/document/eff...

¡Felicidades! Lo leeremos cuidadosamente ❤️
Un abrazo fuerte. Y mucho ánimo a todxs.
Me flipa la desincronía de Nación Rotonda! Sus posts son verdaderamente intemporales :)
Cambiar de comunidades digitales es como cambiar de piel. Ser parte de una historia colectiva que a partir de hoy no existirá más. Ayer discutíamos con @aleacion.bsky.social si preservar la memoria digital de las redes tiene sentido o lo suyo es que se pierda en el tiempo como lágrimas en la lluvia.
