About this event

Come hang out with folks associated with DWeb principles in New York City. This month we're being hosted at Blackbird Infoshop in Kingston, NY.

We will have a presentation on peer-to-peer technology and mapping by Mauve (github) followed by a hike in the Hudson River Valley.

Mauve is an Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.

Mapping has long been a tool of coercion and control, let's take back our geography!

(We will stream the non-hike portion via https://chat.celehner.com/group/cchat)

How to get to Kingston via mass transit

Via Trailways bus from NYC port authority: trailways.com/schedules/bus-fr…

Via MetroNorth from NYC's Grand Central Station

From either of these locations, you will need a lift to Blackbird. Please contact the coordinators. There are rides available.

Come hang out with folks associated with DWeb principles in New York City. This month we're being hosted at Biotech Without Borders, a member-led community lab providing low-cost access to molecular biology facilities and other biotech-related tools.

As food for thought, members of the lab ask you to consider the question: What do you want out of a decentralized research institution and what types of projects could it enable that aren't possible in traditional institutions (industry R&D, academia) because of our current incentives?

Come up to Suite 319. Please keep the door(s) propped open and if you're unable to get in please call or text 7086371289 and someone will come down.

Hope to see you there!
