Each sessions is conducted by two second-years' who organize the session around a topic and format related to their graduation projects and will function as an opportunity to develop, experiment, test and discuss prototypes collectively.
=== Tuesday 27th of Oct ===


==Prototyping planning document==
{{ IRL }}
Each session you will need a Prototyping planning document, which includes:
* title:
* who:
* format: workshop?hackthon?test session?book sprint?
* short description:
** what will happen?
** why (relevance)?
** outcome: what will be goal of the session
* prerequisites: reading list, preliminary research, software installs


'''Deadline for prototyping planning document''': Wednesday evening of the previous week.
10:00 - 13:00 Preparations & Feedback


Do not overload the participants with prerequisites  PLEASE. The idea of these planning documents, is that the sessions can start quickly and be productive and fun, rather than a tedious 2hours' install session.
Hotline location: https://hotline.xpub.nl/py.rate.chnic


==Format==
=== Tuesday 10th of Nov ===
'''The format of sessions''' can range from a
* hackthon: where you ask the participants to explore a subject, through the development of a prototypes, from  give a starting point.
* workshop: where you bring in a certain technology/prototype/... and ask others to develop or explore it. More focused on a approach and see what that approach can lead to
* (book) sprints: where the group writes collaboratively a manual / research text / book / and produces a wbesite/pdf/...
* test session: where a given procedure/methods is tested on the participants and at the end feedback is given
* ...others or combinations of these

Edition 1 is a workshop about web scraping: extracting data from websites and exploring applications of it within an artistic practice.Workshop leaders Tash and Joca will share how they use scraping in their graduation projects: from analyzing self-censorship in Indonesia to remixing the design of your daily news. Then it's time for you to collect data, and experiment with ways to present it.
 
Please read the information below, to make sure you are ready to scrape, rinse and repeat!

Tash
The format of a session can be anything!
possible topics to explore:
    anonymity
    creating safe, temporary, local networks (freedom of speech - freedom of connection!) http://rhizome.org/editorial/2018/sep/11/rest-in-peace-ethira-an-interview-with-amalia-ulman/
    censorship
    for research part: scraping, archiving
    steganography?
    meme culture
   
Joca
Possible topics


    - Scraping and packing in a different interface
A few examples:


    - Language analysis, visualize results
* '''hack-a-thon''': where you ask the participants to explore a subject, by making prototypes together (open-ended, technical, DIY)
* '''workshop''': departing from a specific question / technology / prototype / ... inviting others to engage with it in a ''specific'' way (methodology, how-to, tools)
* '''(book) sprint''': where the group writes collaboratively a manual / research text / book / and produce a website / pdf /... (collective practices, workflows, reading/writing)
* '''test session''': where a given procedure / methods is tested on the participants and at the end feedback is given (feedback, testing the limits)
* ... or '''any other form of activation''' :--)


    - Form art competition https://anthology.rhizome.org/form-art  // https://userinyerface.com/
===Preparations===
These could include for example: a text, software installations, material to bring, ...


Using a preparation list is useful, as it will make it easier to start quickly, be a bit productive (installing things often eat up a lot of time!) and have more fun.

General description

Under the name of .py.rate.chnic sessions, the second-year students from the Experimental Publishing Master program invite you to participate in a series of hands-on workshops, related to the topics of their graduation projects. Each workshop offers the participants an opportunity to engage with the students' research by partaking in their processes, experiments, and discussions.

.py.rate.chnic sessions are a series of collective work-sessions organized by the XPUB second-year's students and attended by first-years.

Each sessions is conducted by two second-years who organize the session around a topic or format related to their graduation projects. The session will function as an opportunity to develop, experiment, test and discuss their processes collectively.

.py.rate.chnic planning document

To prepare the sessions we will work on a small planning document.

Making this document will be helpful for announcing the .py.rate.chnic sessions to XPUB1.

This document includes:

maximum amount of participants:

Formats

The format of a session can be anything!

A few examples:

  • hack-a-thon: where you ask the participants to explore a subject, by making prototypes together (open-ended, technical, DIY)
  • workshop: departing from a specific question / technology / prototype / ... inviting others to engage with it in a specific way (methodology, how-to, tools)
  • (book) sprint: where the group writes collaboratively a manual / research text / book / and produce a website / pdf /... (collective practices, workflows, reading/writing)
  • test session: where a given procedure / methods is tested on the participants and at the end feedback is given (feedback, testing the limits)
  • ... or any other form of activation :--)

Preparations

These could include for example: a text, software installations, material to bring, ...

Using a preparation list is useful, as it will make it easier to start quickly, be a bit productive (installing things often eat up a lot of time!) and have more fun.

TIP: Do not overload the participants with too many preparations.
