Screen is very powerful. In fact, it's so powerful, I've had a friend show me, remotely, how-to do certain task in a screen session. He created the session, I joined it and I could see what he was typing. Like a mutli-user screen session, that's also interactive.

A graphic designer by trade and a musician in his spare time, Andrew heads up the UK Pirate party - a political party - registered with the electoral register with "Reform copyright and patent law" as one of it's core aims. He is going to be speaking at the launch event of Manchester Free Culture Society[2], a newly formed group to encourage discussion and debate about free culture and copyright with relation to creative works. ----- I'm told that the launch night will also feature: John Harris, Director of the ISEI (Institute for Science, Ethics and Innovation)[3] Creative Commons licenced band: I am Ten Ninja[4] A short film by Lawrence Lessig[5] Plus art, music, literature and software etc. ------ As I mentioned, the event is this Thursday evening, in the council chambers at at Manchester University Student Union. The event is due to start at 6.30pm and go on until about 8pm. How to Get to the SU (Manchester Academy!): http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=m13+9PR http://www.umsu.manchester.ac.uk/contact_location/steve_biko_building_academy ------ On a personal note, I'm not totally convinced that Mr Robinson has got it right, however I think that discussion and public debate about these issues is the only way of coming to a general consensus.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: OggCamp is a free software / free culture unconference organised by the presenters of the Ubuntu UK Podcastand Linux Outlaws . This year's OggCamp will take place at *The Black-E in Liverpool, UK* on the *1st and 2nd of May 2010*, *10am - 5pm*. It'll be 2 full days of Free Software, Free Culture and Free Thinking. We have a large venue booked and expect 200-300 people. If you want a chance to meet others who are passionate about technology and share ideas this is it. We have many top FOSS developers from around the world joining us to give talks and attend sessions. *ENTRY TO OGGCAMP IS COMPLETELY FREE! NO TICKETS REQUIRED* If you want to get a feel for the event, have a look at our recap of OggCamp 2009 . *What is an Barcamp / unconference?* More formal conferences have the usual people speaking every time; an unconference is an opportunity to interact with new and interesting people. There won't be a published list of speakers or set schedule before the event, everyone generates content on the day. That can include you! The schedule is decided by the attendees and we'll have a voting system for that. See what others are already proposing - http://ideas.oggcamp.org/talks *What Is An Ogg?* Ogg Vorbis is a completely open, patent-free, professional audio encoding and streaming technology with all the benefits of Open Source. OggCamp is about technology, Open Source and Freedom, but also about music, art, politics, community, creativity and much more. We chose to use the term Ogg because for us it reflects all these things neatly. *Get Involved: *Please add your own ideas for talks and activities to our public wiki– help make the event what you want it to be! It doesn't even have to be about technology strictly, it could be anything. We have about 60 slots available and all are welcome - ideas.oggcamp.org You can meet other attendees on IRC in *#oggcamp* on the Freenode network. irc.freenode.net If you have a project that you'd like to promote or exhibit about you can email the organising team - oggcamp at ubuntu-uk.org Come and join us, it's going to be a great weekend. There's travel information and much more at* http://oggcamp.org* * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Also See The Rathole Roadshow* OggCamp10 is preceded by a special free culture gig on* Friday April 30th at 8pm*. It'll be at the Bad Format Social Club in Liverpool. Kick off the weekend in style with live music from David Rovics, Attila The Stockbroker and Rathole Radiohost (and Linux Outlaw) Dan Lynch , among other guests. Tickets are £5 in advance and can be bought from the website right now. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
