A
event
held at Watershed
on Tuesday 20th February. The event starts at 18:00.
What would a feminist server look like?
How could we create infrastructure that serves queer communities?
Is it possible to separate capitalism/the patriarchy from the systems that build, run and maintain the internet?
Join us for a discussion on the topic of feminist DevOps (DevOps = the practice of software development and operations). After a short presentation on the topic from Julia Hawkes-Reed, we'll talk about our own practices and theories, and come together to create our own QueerTech manifesto for developers.
This is open to people of all backgrounds and skill levels. Whether you're a sysadmin or you've never touched code in your life, we all use the internet and we can all have an opinion on it!
// Location //
We'll be in the PM Studio at the Watershed. It’s accessible by stairs or lift, but is a bit hidden away in the building, so here’s some directions - if you get stuck ask a member of staff where the PM Studio is:
* Go to the cafe/bar
* When looking at the bar, you’ll see some double doors to the left of it
* Go through these double doors, past the toilets. Follow the corridor further along and there will be a doorbell to ring for the PM Studio
We will email out a contact email before the event so please check your spam folder!
There is water and tea-making facilities at the studio. You're welcome to bring your own food and drink or buy them at the bar.
