Call for participation -- FSCONS 2017
4-5 November 2017, Oslo, Norway
The Free Society Conference and Nordic Summit (FSCONS) is a meeting place
for social change, focused on the intersection between technology, culture
and society. FSCONS is organised according to the principles laid out in
our Manifesto, a living document accepted by the society's members at the yearly meeting.
The conference brings together people from a wide range of fields, and
merges the technical with the social, seeking both to activate and
challenge. Open discussion and brainstorming are as important as the talks given during the conference.
Invitation
We're looking for proposals that relate to Free Software, Free Culture or
Free Society generally, as well as those which are at the crossroads of the three or which take the philosophy and brings them to a whole new field. To give you a hint of the scope of the conference here are some topics already planned:
* Changing society: Redefining social structures for resilience.
* Art: Digital and physical forms in modern culture.
* Open Technology: Infrastructure of the Future?
But don't let this restrict your thinking: you can submit a proposal even
if it doesn't quite fit into any of the above topics.
The deadline for your proposal is July 15th.

Free Society Conference and Nordic Summit FSCONS exists to provide a
meeting place where subjects covering society, culture and technology can
be discussed and brought to lifee in peer discussions, without being
confined to each particular subject area. It should provide both the
physical and virtual space where people, organisations and governments,
with interest in the three subject areas can meet in a participatory and constructive dialogue. The unique combination of topics creates a platform where cross-pollination between the areas can occur, and where new co-operations and thoughts can emerge which allows the participants to find
new inspiration even from areas outside of their own.
