Great! How long will you be here and where are you staying? You are more than welcome to come work from Blivande while you are in Stockholm. We always make room for guests in Edgeryders projects.

Hi, I am really interested in such an event! I think the ambition of the project is great and really glad to have found a forum to discuss this. I’ve recently opened a startup with the goal of building a consumer-centered portal that focuses on data integrity. We are building a safe portal for the web, for stopping the sell of data and the tracking. The alpha version of our work can be seen here: NoNoRank. Hopefully a new Internet is possible. I would really appreciate to participate and discuss!

I arrive Friday and return to Paris on Monday, but I’ll be visit Linkoping on Sunday. I booked an airbnb a walkable distance from the location.
I’ll probably come and check out the space on Friday just so I know how to get there.

Hello @Engstrom_PP, welcome! I read and greatly enjoyed your book – in fact, some of your insights are embedded into the fabric of how Edgeryders is organized. We even briefly met in Stockholm once, though you probably do not remember me.
Thing is, I am working on the mathematics of detecting and interpreting “swarming” in the context of an online conversation. It is several levels of abstraction removed from *Swarmwise", but I think you will resonate. I am giving a presentation of it, just before the main event, and you are more than welcome to attend.
Looking forward to seeing you at Blivande!

Hei @rasmus, I’m intrigued by your Human Network - I’m not sure which of the resources online are accurate, as a google search returns results for groups in both the Netherlands and Sweden… Do you have a link? How is it going… and more importantly, what do you expect to come out of it? Asking because there’s many groups out there talking about more collaboration and better interoperability - we ourselves got into plenty of discussions with other networks over the years, but a path was never clear, and covering the costs for coordination is very expensive, as we see every day in our own network. Thanks!

This is shaping up to be quite an auspicious gathering. Every one of you has a fascinating story to tell. I hope you will elaborate more on your projects and ideas in other parts of this forum.

Hello Alberto,
I look forward to meeting you (again) at the event.
Which book are you talking about, is it Swarmwise? If so, I should point out that it is not written by me, but by Rick Falkvinge (who founded the Swedish Pirate Party).
I like his book a lot, however, and I agree with more or less everything it says. I look forward to listening to your presentation of it and discussing it.
See you at Blivande!

Yes, Christian. I confused people: you and I met not in Stockholm but in Brussels, in the very early days of your mandate as MEP. The book is indeed Swarmwise. Apologies, and see you at the event!
Thanks for the invitation, I’ll come. I work with open science/open access to scholarly literature.

Let’s try to get the ball rolling on a few other interesting conversations like this before the event, and we’ll really hit the ground running.

I got an invitation from @hugi and I intend to be there. I’m mostly interested in the human side of technology in general, and internet in particular, and there’s more information about me at http://kazarnowi.cz

Oh I was so excited to see Hugi’s post about this, it seems right up my alley. In fact, that could be my presentation - “Excitable”.
I haven’t had the attention to scrutinize all the conversation, perhaps not even register in proper time, but if you’ll have me I’ll be delighted to attend the extended event on Saturday!
Best regards
