Welcome to the CC server!

This is a shared server for collective publishing experiments to explore how different ways of working are shaped by (and shape) different realities. CC is currently maintained by Simon Browne and Manetta Berends from Rotterdam (NL).

We think about CC as a pedagogical space in flux. It's a production environment (to produce collective publications), a (re)learning environment (to document, read, write and execute) and an explorative environment (to experiment with publishing workflows). We come from a background in design and we have made many PDFs and printed matter. From a desire to question our toolsets, training and ways of working, we felt that we needed a space to cross many types of (other) knowledges: serving, designing, publishing, tool-making, prototyping, software-studies, theory, and more.

CC is currently hosting a few things:

We propose to sign the collective calendar (on the right) when using any of these tools (which in practice is most often the octomode instance).

Below the calendar you can find the CC-collective conditions for use we formulated, which is something we would like to come back to revisit.

This wiki

We use this wiki as a working environment to produce publications with, organise the collective CC server maintenance work, and document things we do.

Octomode

Octomode is a collective editing space for PDF making, using Etherpad, Paged.js and Flask.

Inspired by the multi-centered, tentacular cognition capabilities of the octopus, we imagined a space in which the artificial boundaries of writing and design can be crossed; where writing, editing and designing can be done in one environment simultaneously, allowing the format to influence the matter and vice-versa.

The version installed on CC is open for use, it is password protected, reach out to us to ask for it, we share the password in an open ended network of trusted-peers and trusted-peers-of-peers.
