    [...]

    The worksession is inspired by trans*feminist collective practices, anti-harassment and allyship-work, non-violent communication, score-making, #decolonial and #intersectional #activism, but also by ways of doing developed within Free Culture and Free, Libre and Open Source software. Collective Conditions focuses on a-polarizing methods, #affirmative habits that can stretch and reorient frameworks, that represent new vocabulary, gestures and forms of expression[...]"
