IndieWebCamp Popup: Analog Meets Online

January 22, 2022
Sat

Topics discussed:

  • Longevity of websites - printed websites
  • How to replicate unprogrammed live interactions online - status indicators
  • How we can safely and meaningfully interact online - expectations of different platforms
  • How to make pre-recorded events more useful - capturing context, transcription, commentary

How do the fun and potential of our personal websites, and the connection of online community, extend into our offline lives and spaces? How are people playing with the boundaries of virtual and offline life? How can websites enhance physical places, things and events?

Let's share our analog-virtual projects and ideas (and examples you've seen), explore what excites us about the future, discuss how online and in-person community and events interface and enhance each other, and reflect on bigger picture questions about the blending of these spheres in our lives and society.

All are welcome!

Facilitated by: Tracy Durnell (tracydurnell in chat)

What's an IndieWeb Popup? Since the pause on in-person meetups, we've done online Indie Web Camps and Homebrew Website Clubs. We've also started having a new type of event called a popup: a single IWC session as a standalone event.
