An In-ternal workshop I organised for In-grid and as part of my PhD research and In-grids annual in-ternal residency. In this workshop, we worked together to (con)figure out and manifest our new server infrastructure together through questioning how the norms of these processes rubbed up against our collective ways of relating. This was an In-ternal edition of the workshop run earlier in the year at our combined panel at 4S/EASST and builds on this work and modified it to action are infrastructures together.
We also had the pleasure to formalise this work into the Femfester manifesto that was published as part of the first edition of Artists Runing Datacentres journal published by Servus.

A combined panel and workshop I organised and chaired with members of In-grid collective.
This panel took a critical look at digital "cloud" infrastructures and how to counter their centralised corporate models. We look to how collectives and communities are making transformations in infrastructures as system admins, forming protocols and ways of doing otherwise.

A series of workshops I ran with Batool Desouky for PhD students at the Critical Media Lab (CML) around forming and maintaining a knowledge base for your research in obsidian. In this workshop we took them through basic concepts and approaches to the software, as well as how to implement different research methods within the knowledge base to collect and organise your notes, outcomes and artefacts.

Servpub is an autonomous publishing infrastructure that I helped to make as part of In-grid, and in collaboration with Creative Crowds, SysterServer, CCI, UCL, CSNI, Shape, and more. Here I helped set up a VPN and autonomous servers that hosted a wiki-to-print instance, which enabled us to form a writing and publishing infrastructure that could move around. I also collaborated here to produce a number of workshops and presentations around the project, as well as a critical set of accessible docs.
This project is also working toward publication in Oct 2025 with Minor compositions.
