In 2022, 6 organisations came together in 6 different sessions in the project A Traversal Networks of Feminist Servers (ATNOFS) to think and work collaboratively on notions around feminist servers, experimental publishing, convivial server administration, alternative social media, secure modes of sharing digital knowledge, all while sharing collective practices that each organisation has been developing. All sessions were connected through rosa, a traveling trans*feminist server that hosted the documentation for each session.

|
Continuing these threads, Sometimes Not Available considers the need for interrelation and support for existing feminist server efforts, and for connecting around collective practices of developing, hosting and implementing tools and methods that reflect local needs, interests and conditions.

How can the labour behind hosting be made inclusive, convivial, shared, visible not only in moments when things go wrong? In what ways does the language embedded in server administration influence the practices and interactions around it? How can servers be pedagogical spaces for experimentation for those with different knowledges?

On the 23rd of November, Inés and Martu from la_bekka will join us in discussing these matters.
