💞
I'd like to take 2 seconds this morning and thank all the #commons janitors who do the ungrateful and unseen work of trying to increase #fedi's #cohesion and #culture.
#Janitors are #People who find it important to connect people. They spread bits of #information they find to other people for whom it may be useful. Usually in hopes that #attraction occurs between formerly unrelated parties, such as #stimulating a #collaboration between #fediverse projects.
Janitors *weave* #SocialFabric.. ✊
Invisible Jumpers
Photographer Joseph Ford and knitter Nina Dodd have for the last several years worked on their collaborative project called Invisible Jumpers, in which Dodd would knit a garment that blends in with a chosen environment and then Ford would photograph the wearer. The book was published in 2019 ... but the project continues adding animals, arists, musicians to the project. As Ford explains:
"The locations have to be eye-catching but simple enough to be able to be knitted. They also have to be places that aren’t going to change too fast, as the knitting takes a few weeks...
Once I’ve found the location, I photograph someone standing where I would like the model to be in the final picture. I draw over this scouting photograph and annotate the picture with different colors and patterns so Nina can plan how to knit. Often there are 10 or 12 different shades of yarn in a single picture, and up to 24 balls of wool at any one time for the more complicated designs. The choice of yarn has varied according to the background."

I was trying to visualize how I would like to interact with different actors in a community. This is what I have so far. I intend to add some arguments and tips for the different ways of interacting in this thread (1/4).

It's often assumed that standards work is inherently competitive. This post examines why Internet standards are often more collaborative than competitive, and outlines some implications of this approach. #standards #collaboration

Lehto x Socool - Sierra is out now! 🟦
With Sierra, @lehto and @socool move into the fields of bass music. Once again, their mutual admiration for breakbeats, deep basslines, and vocal snippets results in a fine contribution to the electronic music world.

I am co-founding a new startup! #InputLab creates test data for thousands of formats from electronic invoices to retail orders, covering all input features – and we just got an 800k€ initial funding to start as a #CISPA spin-off in September.
We are #hiring, especially experts in constraint solving and test generation – and we are looking out for #collaboration partners and early #adopters from industry and public service. Check us out at https://inputlab.net! #startup #XML #softwaretesting
Help Mastodon, I'm lost !
I'm looking for a alternative to Confluence to store my team documentation.
My short list today is
@dokuwiki
@xwikiorg
@ngpixel (Wiki.js) and
@MkDocs
What are you using ? What would you recommend ?
#wiki #collaboration #documentation #markdown
Boost would be appreciated. Thanks ! 🙂
Deleted my #X #Twitter account because of its evil owner, so call me ex-X as I cross it out of my nice life here in #Japan! Thanks to @dangillmor for the nudge. I'm a stickler anyway about living by #academic #ethics: https://japanned.hcommons.org/academic_life
I'm in the #Humanities Commons instance, and we have free profiles like https://hcommons.org/members/stevemccartyinjapan that include a link to the old blue bird of Twitter, and members are increasingly leaving, so our admins at @hello might want to reconsider having that item in the next version of profiles.
What can I do with all this new free time besides taking contemplative hikes in Kyoto? I'm still looking for a wide range of informants and academic colleagues, as I should have big news on #international #collaboration in 2024. I'm looking for #friends in fields such as #online #education, #bilingualism, #language #teaching with #technology, #journalism, #interculturalcommunication, and #Asia.
A little positive reinforcement goes a long way!

Quiet Stories 154: Building A Green Digital Service, Cross-Functional #Collaboration, Measuring The #UserExperience, #Strategy In Reverse, and more 👇🏻
I'm starting to schedule more #interviews for my video series, #toplessTopics . Let me know if you might be interested! You can see past interviews here: https://www.toplesstopics.org/interviews/
You don't have to be an expert or professional on anything, just somewhat knowledgable and passionate about what you want to speak about. Just a few topics we might get into are:
#feminism #intersectionalFeminism #mentalHealth #SexEducation #KinkEducation #EroticArt #sexWorkers #decriminalization #genderEquality #lgbtq #queer #disability #activism #censorship #patriarchy #misogyny #sexism and a whole lot else...
I'm also especially interested in #collaboration with other #contentCreator s so that we might combine our audiences (to educate and galvanize activism in as many people as possible, as this is the only way we can ever force real societal change). Of course I will happily share links to your content! I don't have a huge audience, but I'm happy to encourage what supporters I do have 😉
If you might be interested, you can fill out this collaboration form here, or just reply or DM to me if you have any questions or comments: https://www.toplesstopics.org/contact/collaborate/

An overdue #introduction 👋 (thanks for the prompt when I switched instances @aussocialadmin )
My name is Scott and I live in Sydney (on Wangal Country in the Inner West). My pronouns are he / him.
I was born and raised in Canada (Alberta, even), and have lived in some great places around the world (Montreal, NYC, Vermont, rural Kenya). Being a Canadian man of a certain age, yes, I play hockey. Even in Australia.
I've been very (not extremely) online since the 90s. First it was rec.music.phish, then fark.com, then the Big Tech Socials.
I strive to behave with compassion and to be more kind than nice. But I also shitpost from time to time because internet.
I'm interested in lots of things and barely maintain a blurred boundary between personal and professional. See hashtags below or on my profile for a more specific list, but I think it's generally encompassed by the concept of #interbeing which I understand as being coined by Thich Nhat Hanh and drawn from Vietnamese and older Buddhist concepts.
