> tilde.team is a shared system that provides an inclusive, non-commercial space
|
|
> for teaching, learning, practicing and enjoying the social medium of unix.
|
|
|
|
|
|
here are some of our most important values:
|
|
|
|
1. tilde.team is an alternative social environment for the technically-inclined;
|
|
specifically, a non-commercial alternative to the mainstream, corporate-owned
|
|
media and social media. we aim to put the users in control of the tools of
|
|
communication that are currently being neutered by corporate commodification
|
|
of the www.
|
|
|
|
2. provide tools, resources and encouragement for users to develop ideas and
|
|
best practices for the next generation of public access unix systems. the
|
|
"next generation" is always ahead of the present, so this implies that the
|
|
system is in a constant state of development and self-improvement, with a
|
|
continually rolling set of goals, and regular testing and evaluation of
|
|
experimental projects. --all of which is powered by user involvement in a
|
|
brainstorming/experimenting/teaching/learning/doing model.
|
|
|
|
3. serve partly as a meta-community among other tildes and pubnixes, both
|
|
sharing best practices and learning from their experiences.
|
|
|
|
4. last but absolutely not least --> MAKE IT FUN! it should not be a bitter
|
|
place to sulk or rant about mainstream culture. it should be a social
|
|
environment in which users can go wild and push their creative skills to the
|
|
limit. it should be a place to appreciate what does not exist in other
|
|
exploitative commercial environments.
