Good news! Considering how well last years OSP Relearn Summer
School went, we're reiterating and extending the school
with all of the people and labs that make up
Variable. We're really exited to be
able to make this happen again, especially considering all the extra
people that will be joining in this year. Relearn starts on July 6th
(Sunday) and ends 11 July (Friday). You might have received some of
this info by email already, so here is an overview of what we're
attempting to do:
Relearn is a summerschool with as many teachers as it has
participants. It is about sharing and trying Free Culture practices, and
is entirely done with Free, Libre and Open Source software.
It starts from the idea that tools are increasingly mediated by software
and the algorithmic and legal dynamics that constraint and shape its
use.
Reconnecting to the physical and digital material of those tools is a
means of (re)asserting ownership and ensuring active participation in
the future of our work practices.
Relearn welcomes participants — artists, students, teachers,
practitioners — from all ages and disciplines.

To participate, please send an e-mail
to registration@relearn.be
Participation is free but the number of places is limited to 60!
We'll be in touch by the 5th of May.
This year we'd like to open up the process and let anybody submit a proposal for a worksession; we've detailed how to do so on relearn.be
