Grafoscopio accepted at FOSDEM :-)... Now looking for travel funds :-/
Hi, The subject pretty much resumes the current situation: organizers at FOSDEM[1] approved my talk about Grafoscopio for the 2020 version (Feb 1 and 2). They tell me that they don't provide travel funds, but because I spoke about the voluntary and self funded nature of the project and asked for travel funds, the usual route here is trying to find an entity, located in Brussels that would be interested in some workshops about the tool and that will cover travel expenses. Ideally such entity would be related with the subjects and themes we have been working with the Grafoscopio community: civic tech, hacktivism, reproducible research, data journalism, data feminism, critical science and technology studies, open data, collective writing self publishing and book sprints. As you can see, Grafoscopio and its community are pretty versatile and diverse in their concerns and approaches, so I hope that opens possibilities for a lot of interested sponsors, located in Brussels. Even sponsors in Europe could work, as internal travel is kind of cheap and the biggest part of the expenses are inter continental travel. I don't know of any particular European entity that could sponsor my travel funds for FOSDEM, but hopefully the European pharoers know of some. The FOSDEM organizers asked me for some possible entities so, I'm all ears :-) Santiago and Phill, any particular ideas? If not, remember that we can prepare a remote talk :-) [1] https://fosdem.org/2020/ Thanks, Offray
Hi again, FOSDEM is approaching and I don't think I will get an sponsor in such brevity. Santiago, Phill, are you willing to take care of this talk? I can coach and support you, if needed. The details about the proposal are here: https://fosdem.org/2020/schedule/event/open_research_pocket_infrastructures/ Cheers, Offray On 19/12/19 4:30 p. m., Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas wrote:

I am in. I am now organizing the stand. I can participate in a skype (or what-ever-technology) to help to organize the talk. What are your constraints?? santiago El mar., 14 ene. 2020 a las 2:42, Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas (< offray.luna@mutabit.com>) escribió:

Hi, I am pretty flexible on time these days, except for next Friday afternoon/night and next Saturday (at GMT - 5). I already contacted the organizers to let them know that you may will be giving the talk (I talked about that possibility while applying). We can coordinate off-list. Just let me know your availability so we can figure out all details. Last version install instructions are here: https://mutabit.com/repos.fossil/grafoscopio/doc/tip/readme.md.html Cheers, Offray On 14/01/20 10:00 a. m., phil@highoctane.be wrote:
