BarnCamp: Tech activism gathering next weekend.

hacktionlab | 03.06.2011 16:23 | Education | Free Spaces | Technology

Brought to you by HacktionLab, BarnCamp 2011 will be three days of workshops on topics ranging from renewable energy to foraging for food to citizen journalism to using free software for activism, up to four nights of camping, open space sessions, evening entertainment, great food on a beautiful farm co-op high in the Wye Valley.



BarnCamp takes place on the 10, 11 and 12 June this year, so for full effect best to turn up on Thursday 9th. There is a charge of £30 in advance for the event to cover costs, but this includes camping for up to four nights and food for the entire three days of the event.

2011 will mark the forth BarnCamp convergence at Highbury Farm in the Wye Valley (Wales) where people interested and/or working in the areas of alternative media, renewable energy, on-line video distribution, free software and any other form of activism that utilises technology came together to share and discuss. Based on feedback from the previous years, we are deliberately continuing to keep this year's camp less geeky than the previous years by having a more open range of workshops and open space sessions, but we are also inserting an extra day to allow for more, longer workshops - some of which might be geeky!
