#freeculture

3 posts3 participants0 posts today

I would argue the greater mistake was rebranding #freesoftware and forming a dull corporate entity known as the #opensourceinitiative. Open source as a term* has always been poorly defined despite being legally identical to Free/Libre; and the ideas of #freeculture #cyberlibertarian and #freespeech cannot be divorced from #freelibresoftware

*(referring to how its colloquially spoken— neither word in "open source" implies or evokes freedom in any way; it sounds more like "source available" than #liberty to me.)

I thought it was enough to be apolitical, invite everybody to be part of our development community, and that everybody would continue to keep politics out of the coding. Including even my own libertarian politics. If I had known what was coming, I would have made a big deal about insisting that the open source community had to have one positive political value: free speech and opposition to censorship. That would have been justified on the object level, because we can't function when those political conditions are violated.” — @esrtweet (x.com) @esrtweet@bird.makeup #freesoftware #freeculture #foss #floss #opensource #OSI #freesoftwarefoundation #freelibre #freespeech #censorship #anticensorship #freethought #antiwoke

“On the meta-level, having that as a positively asserted community value would have made it far more difficult for the Marxists/wokies to do their entryism thing. They would have been recognized as a fundamentally toxic phenomenon sooner. Failure of leadership on my part. …on this I screwed up, and I feel bad about it.” — @esrtweet ( x.com/esrtweet/status/18868943 )

Hello! This is our #introduction !

I am producing and directing an animated series called "Lunatics!" about the first permanent settlers on the Moon, which attempts to be as realistic about this as possible, drawing on present-day technology, and much of the organizational culture around it.

It's a *free-culture* project: CC By-SA 4.0 licensed for episodes and most behind-the-scenes content. And an
open movie project in that source files from Blender, Kdenlive, etc will be released with episodes. For this to be truly meaningful, we also rely on *free/open-source* software to produce it.

There is a
#Pixelfed for the project itself:

@lunatics@px.filmfreedom.net

and of course, a website for the series:

https://lunatics.tv

and the project:

https://lunaticsproject.org

This is my "professional" account, so I focus on topics related to my project:
#Animation #Film #ScienceFiction #FreeSoftware #OpenSource #Copyright #Copyleft #Art #Blender #Kdenlive #CreativeCommons #FreeCulture #ShareAlike

I often post little progress reports and work-in-progress here.

I try to avoid partisan politics and other acrimonious subjects. Also trying to watch my language here, keeping it PG-13, let's say.

If you would like a less filtered
:monkey_see_no_evil: version of me, I do have a personal #Hometown (basically #Mastodon but not quite) account as well:

@TerryHancock@realsocial.life

NOTE:
#Misskey allows a longer post length and also up to 16 images per post, which makes it a lot more convenient for my project posts. Buy you'll only see the first 4 images on Mastodon (there are 7 on this post, for example). There are subtle differences like this between #Fediverse platforms!
#Introduction

2025 #Introduction update:

Currently finishing up what has become a 14-year project of producing an 18-minute #FreeCulture #OpenMovie #SciFi #Animation pilot episode using #FreeSoftware authoring tools like #Blender3D #Kdenlive #Audacity and more.

Hopefully episode 2 will go faster!

I have a professional account where I talk mostly about that at

The Thirteenth Annual 26 Hour New Years Eve Show is about to start.

Suggested by pokey in 2011. As podcasting tends to be a one way conversation, he thought it would be nice to get all the #FLOSS, #Linux, #FreeCulture, #podcasters and Listeners in one place to get together and chat in person. Initially it was planned to be just a few hours, but we kept missing members from other parts of the world. The show was extended to welcome ever time zone to the New Year, which actually turns out to be 26 Timezones.

The Thirteenth Annual 26 Hour New Years Eve Show
Welcome every TimeZone!

If you keep talking, we'll keep recording.

Please Boost.

For those who don't know, on New Years Eve 2024-12-31 10:00 UTC (5:00 AM EST), we will have a recording going on the HPR Mumble server for anyone to come on and say "Happy New Years" and talk about whatever they want. We will leave the recording going until at least 2025-01-01 12:00 UTC (7:00 AM EST), and keep recording until the conversation stops.

So please stop in. Say "Hi" and maybe join in the conversation with other HPR listeners and contributors. It's always a good time!!

So we will record for at least 26 Hours, but will keep the recording going for an "After Show". Some years the after show has been even longer than the show itself. While this is on the HPR Site, it is entirely a community initiative which is supported heavily by the fine folks over at the #linuxlugcast with the Mumble Server been provided by Delwin.
