##Situated Publishing: Writing with and for machines
February 2017: In the framework of Transmediale, Michael Murtaugh, Sarah Garcin and An Mertens presented how publishing activities – collective writing, editing and lay-out – lead to a pdf or a printed brochure as a reminder that digital creation can also exist without the cloud.

##Etherbox at Diversions worksession
December 2016: Over the years, Constant experimented with a local server and later a Raspberry Pi, as a temporary documentation space for collective work. The device is now called 'The Etherbox' and is a default participant of Constant worksessions and more. This feed proposes to read up on the history of Etherbox, and observe how some ideas can develop into projects and more ideas and more projects.

##2084: Rise of the botnet
July 2014: The first attempt of a social reading/writing space as part of Relearn 2014.
It is a beautiful week in the summer of the year 2084. The sun still shines and the stars do still sparkle. As mr. Orwell predicted a dystopic world in 1984, a group of people in 2014 did predict another dystopia to be realized in 2084: the internet as we knew it, collapsed. But: "There is a life after Google & the Cloud!"
Welcome to the Botnet and welcome to the year 2084. We communicate through IRC, a chatting programm based on Written Speech. How are you doing? Are you already connected to the internet again? There are multiple servers around here that will bring you back in touch with your friends and the rest of the world.

##Relearn 2014
Relearn is a summerschool with as many teachers as it has participants. It is about sharing and trying Free Culture practices, and is entirely done with Free, Libre and Open Source software. This Relearn took place in Variable, a collectively run F/LOSS Arts Lab from 2011-2014 in Brussels.
