About the festival: The Edgeryders festival is a co-created event, build by participants who work together in different crews.

At the Edgeryders festival you get to see what is happening, and how your own story is part of it.

You will meet people from all over Europe to share our experiences from trying to build good lives for ourselves and people we love. Everyone comes together to exchange experiences, and use the learnings to help us make better decisions. In our professional and personal lives.

Join this call to help shape the festival in a direction that interests you most.

notes from zoom chat:

From Maria@Edgeryders to Everyone: (08:08 PM)
it would be great if you guys could quickly share your topic of interest, what you would be interested in/what you might want to contribute and where you are based here in the chat for each other for orientation :slight_smile:
From Inge to Everyone: (08:10 PM)
i’m especially interested in topics related to tech&humans - focussed on disinfo, authoritarianism (abuse of tech), and ethics
From Zenna Fiscella to Everyone: (08:10 PM)

From Inge to Everyone: (08:10 PM)
What i can do: help communicate the messages
From Oliver Sauter to Everyone: (08:12 PM)
We at WorldBrain could organise a hackathon in Berlin for conscious tech.
From Me to Everyone: (08:12 PM)
awesome, oliver
From Maria@Edgeryders to Everyone: (08:13 PM)
I want to help you guys to coordinate to get together to realise events around the NGI topics and directly organise and help set up the event in Stockholm (great space) :slight_smile:
From Alberto to Everyone: (08:13 PM)
I am especially interested in the economic aspects of Internet infrastructure. Specifically, I care about how best make use of the property of information to be non-rivalrous: using it does not prevent others also using it.
From Oliver Sauter to Everyone: (08:14 PM)

From Alberto to Everyone: (08:14 PM)
I would like to explore how a new wave of Internet infrastructure can enable a commons-based economy, which is just way more efficient than the present IPR-based model.
From Oliver Sauter to Everyone: (08:14 PM)
Looking forward to talk in Helsinki :slight_smile:
From John Coate to Everyone: (08:14 PM)
I am interested in moving tech back to greater user control.
From Alberto to Everyone: (08:14 PM)
@Oliver me too, my friend.
From Zenna Fiscella to Everyone: (08:14 PM)
I’m interested in decentralisation, in all forms but my focus is on internet atm
From John Coate to Everyone: (08:16 PM)
It should be noted that Nadia is the chief organizer for the festival and she is out until later this week
From Noemi to Everyone: (08:17 PM)
Also: what is your experience with events so far?
From John Coate to Everyone: (08:18 PM)
also Zoom defaults to you being mute…so unmute before you speak.
From Noemi to Everyone: (08:22 PM)
Are there formats you have seen elsewhere which you liked?
From Chris Adams to Everyone: (08:22 PM)
Hi Folks. My current interest is in understanding the policy levers available to help decouple the use of internet tech and digital in general, from the environmental impact we associate with it, and also to see how to have. More diverse
From Alberto to Everyone: (08:23 PM)
@Chris: nice!
From Chris Adams to Everyone: (08:23 PM)
Damnit! Not finished. I’m looking for ways to promote a more diverse ecosystem that we work without such concentration of power and influence in a tiny number of actors
