_RICHAIR wireless workshop_ time: 2pm Monday 10th May, 2004 venue: CCA, 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow entrance: FREE (places limited)
In conjunction with RICHAIR2030's performance at MACHINISTA in Glasgow, TAKE2030 will hold a freenetwork-DIY antenna workshop at Center for Contemporary Arts (CCA) on Monday, May 10, 2pm-5pm.
RICHAIR2030 calls for public participation in freenetwork movement - its ideas of open distributed wireless network and its DIY and open source application in hardware and software construct. Recalling early days of freenetworkers' handmade antenna building session, we will take the opportunity of the workshop get together to review the current state of freenetwork movement. In this time of Telecom's expansion of city hotspots and the accessibility of inexpensive consumer wifi products, RICHAIR2030 calls for sustainable local and self-organized network building - share and consume, be engaged, be involved.
We encourage your participation with your laptops and wifi cards.
