HacktionLab presents "That tech is mine!": a hacktionlab / barnCamp Reunion - featuring discussions on alt-media, radical tech collectives, right to repair, free and open source software, the maker mentality, and the old hacker ethic.

Dates - Friday 10th, Saturday 11th, and Sunday 12th June 2022

Location - https://todmordenmakery.org.uk/ and other rooms in - https://tlchub.org.uk/ and private camping nearby

Main Idea

A reunion of people and ideas that went on at BarnCamps and Hacktionlabs. Friends of Friends welcome as we can let them know the general vibe.

See HacktionCamp 20202 Workshops to propose and review the workshops.

Format

Unconference (with some organising to make sure we have enough sessions). It's a DIY event but there are some roles for coordinating this and that. See HacktionCamp 2022 Roles

Timing, accommodation

Arrive Friday 10th June from 2pm depart Sunday from 3pm? Cost: a small charge to cover some things Accommodation: A campsite central to Todmorden only 5 mins walk from the Golden Lion

Food

Food: Camp Catering and at the College is possible - There are lots of places to eat in Todmorden. How involved this is still not confirmed.

Context

If you want to know more about Hacktionlab and barncamps see this website - https://hacktionlab.org/

Workshops / Sessions

While this is an unconference and you are free to arrive with rough ideas. It is helpful to have some workshops planned and shared in advance.

See If you can please do add on to the workshops page here.

Other things we could cover:

"Free Software: A New Hope" - a operatic spectacular about the life of Richard M Stallman, the Obi Wan of the Free Software movement (although I feel he was probably a member of the Sith - RMS that is). (Mike would like to play Larry Wall if possible)

Party/Ents

Friday

- show some old classic riot porn just to show how old and classic some of us are - screen "What A Wonderful Life" - a feel good film that everyone likes, even when its not Christmas - screen an edgy film that will probably fuck with everyone's heads and send them to bed early

Saturday

The upstairs room of the Golden Lion is pretty cheap to hire if we get 20-30 people up for it it could be worth it

- raveoke - open "mike"
