Digital Commoning Practices
Following last week lectures on "Intersecting Commons" lecture series,
this week will focus on "Commoning Education / Educating the Commons"
from 18.03 till 20.03 starting 19:00 UTC+2.
The collaborative initiative Station of Commons finds form in the
exhibition "Digital Commoning Practices" in March 2021 hosted in the
artist run gallery Oksasenkatu11 in Helsinki.

The exhibition "Digital Commoning Practices" departs from Station of
Commons; a practice of re-appropriation of technology as Commons within
public space, which stands for radical alternative strategies to the
neo-liberal system in terms of digital means of production,
communication and distribution. "Digital Commoning Practices" starts
with a question: How to think of a collaborative process embedded in
technology that can find form into new knowledge and know-hows within,
against and beyond capitalist modes of production?

"Educating the Commons and Commoning Education"
by Gregoire Rousseau and Nora Sternfeld in dialogue.
All over the world, education – which could be understood as a universal
right and public good – is facing processes of economization and
privatization. Technology – which could be understood as a common means
of production, collaboratively developed – is taken away from the public
and put into corporate hands. This conversation investigates the
question of shared and common knowledge from the perspectives of an
educator and an engineer, respectively.
