Here we develop a mapping of relationships between capability-building practices in activist formations (formaciĆ²n) and a digital toolstack.
Here we bring up a framework about tools, arising from a decade or so of experimentation. It has three phases: trinity, stack and 'specials'.
There is a basic proposition here: In constructing learning space, diving into a specialised bundle of tools for delivering content to an audience might not be the move to make. There might be a bundle of more generic tools, for P2P collaborating and coproduction, that will do a large part of the work involved in researching, communicating understandings and making discoveries. In a collective.
Here we explore the practice of commons of running code - relationships of folks who develop (code), folks who maintain (code, servers) and folks who 'just use', in truly plural ways. This includes the matter of wiki-farm hosting.
Here we explore the practical relationships between specialised digital tools for provisioning and the generic stack of digital tools for activist practice.
Here we explore what it takes for wiki to become widely used by people who need to collaborate, distributed across diverse locations, in producing, mobilising and stewarding radical understandings and practical capabilities, as distinct from (but mobilising) radical capabilities in code.
