Who makes WiFi? Why do different makers matter? What do barbeques and backyards have to do with the internet? This book explores how WiFi is made from the ground up, or in this case from the backyard out. Forged around barbeques, made of found, adapted and off-the-shelf materials and installed in ordinary domestic spaces, this book documents the collective work of individuals committed to making 'Ournet not the internet'. Drawing on rich ethnographic material, Jungnickel's research on community WiFi networking provides an overdue account of the innovative digital cultures and practices of ordinary people making extra-ordinary things. What make-do methods, mods and tales of resourceful ingenuity permit is another way of seeing how technologies come into being. It brings to life an Australian version of WiFi, enriching global studies of wireless technology by signalling the potential of comparative studies. Critically, the book presents the first sustained study of homebrew high-tech backyard technologists who imbue a DIY ethos but do not do it alone - they Do-It-Together (DIT). This timely critique of collective DIT innovation in an increasingly networked society will be of interest to scholars and practitioners of maker culture.
The Democratic System of Pancasila that has been chosen by Indonesian founders give several consequences. The state needs to be responsible for regulating equality policies for every citizen. Not only about the issue of equitable economic resources but also equal access to information. In the context of the country, democracy and markets equal access to information can be understood as information technology paradigm. This paradigm means that all systems that use by technology information are defined by networking sense, which is an empowering citizen to influence a wide variety of processes. Through the observation and depth of methods, this research examines the role of the Yogyakarta Provincial Education and Sports Agency for educating students and the equitable distribution of information technology. The city was chosen as a research umbrella carried out by Media Literacy Activists Network in 2017. As result of this research shows that literacy education efforts were carried out by Indonesia Broadcasting Commision of Yogyakarta Special Region were still struggling in a protectionist perspective, while The Institute of Government Education Communication Technology in Yogyakarta Province is using creative media approach as an effort to use technology as part of empowerment.Sistem Demokrasi Pancasila yang dipilih oleh para pendiri bangsa Indonesia melahirkan beberapa konsekuensi logis. Diantaranya menuntut peran negara dalam mengatur kebijakan pemerataan keadilan. Keadilan tidak hanya pada persoalan pemerataan sumber-sumber ekonomi, namun juga pemerataan akses informasi. Dalam masyarakat, akses informasi ini di sebut sebagai paradigma teknologi informasi. Paradigma ini berarti ketika semua sistem yang menggunakan teknologi informasi didefinisikan oleh 'logika jaringan' yang memungkinkan mereka memengaruhi suatu varietas luas proses-proses dan organisasi-organisasi. Ketika "logika jaringan" tersebut telah terjadi dengan melimpahnya akses informasi di dunia maya lalu langkah-langkah seperti apa yang diterapkan oleh Negara khususnya Dinas Pendidikan dan Olahraga Provinsi Yogyakarta untuk mendidik siswa dan guru sebagai bagian dari pemerataan keadilan dalam teknologi informasi? Kota ini dipilih berkaitan dengan payung riset yang dilakukan bersama-sama dengan Jaringan Pegiat Literasi Media (Japelidi) pada tahun 2017. Penelitian ini menggunakan instrumen yang telah disusun melalui pengayaan teori digital literasi berkaitan dengan tujuan penelitian yaitu, memetakan aktivitas Literasi Digital. Melalui desk study, observasi dan wawancara mendalam sebagai metode, peneliti menemukan upaya pendidikan literasi yang dilakukan KPID DIY masih berkutat dalam perspektif proteksionis sedangkan BTKP DIY lebih pada pendekatan media kreatif sebagai upaya menggunakan teknologi sebagai bagian dari pemberdayaan.
The last two decades have seen a growing literature worldwide on do-it-yourself (DiY) laboratories driving informal innovation. However, there is a limited account of the state-of-the-art DiY literature to the emergence of DiY laboratories or of the challenges, strategies for its diffusion and success. This study, therefore, aims to understand the state-of-the-art of DiY laboratories. Using the systematic literature review approach, 29 articles are analysed. The results revealed that the main purpose of publications on DiY laboratories was geared towards showcasing informal innovation. Most of the studies used the case study methodology and most were underpinned by theories from innovation literature. The success factors identified for DiY laboratories include personal motivation and the desire to create a business, whilst their emergence was driven by the need for extra income, experimenting with new ideas and the pursuit of hobbies outside formal work settings. Key challenges faced by DiY laboratories include economic and marketing factors, especially access to finance to scale up their innovations. The strategies used by DiY laboratories to diffuse their innovations are social networking, partnerships with bigger tech firms and selling off their innovations to investors. The study outlines the implications for practitioners, entrepreneurs, and government, and makes recommendations.
The public guidance of pharmaceutical services policy standard has been provided by the government throughIndonesian Health Ministrial Decree No. 1027/Menkes/SK/IX/2004. This policy, however, i still unimplementedyet, and seems need to be further evaluated. Study on the role of Indonesian Pharmacist Association (IAI) on theImplementation of pharmaceutical services standard in the pharmacy of DIY region was conducted. The study aimsto explore the IAI effort in implementing the government policy in DIY region, including services, learning andprotection. An explorative descriptive research was carried out. The data were collected through observation using passiveparticipatory model, indepth interview to the management of IAI and chemist management in DIY region. A total of17 respondents, covering chairman and secretary of DIY IAI, pharmacist and chemist management were interviewed.Triangulation was also conducted to pharmacist which manage the chemists.The study results show for service role, the policy level IAI seeks to play its role by issuing movement "NoPharmacist No Service", but the operational level this movement has not been as expected. The protection role, IAIseeks advocacy function by providing protection to its members. In contrast the networking function has not beenable to lift the pharmacist image in society. For learning role, continuing professional education activities must be continuously conducted with some notification for improvement. The awareness of pharmacist in improving theircompetency should be increased through improvement of accountability of IAI. Key words: Indonesian Health Ministrial Decree No. 1027, IAI, pharmaceutical services policy
The diffusion and democratisation of computing technologies and physical prototyping systems has supported the rise of Do-It-Yourself culture. In the context of design innovation, this shift has undoubtedly blurred the lines between the roles of amateur and professional. Crowdsourcing platforms providing easily accessible, lightweight services to promote and fund ideas for new products can potentially radically compress the timescale from new concept generation to market. However, questions are emerging around these adjustments in the roles of amateur and professional, and to what extend individual makers and their communities can participate in, and benefit from, this new landscape. This paper will examine this situation using the framing of a "toolkit design and development" approach. We discuss the toolkit approach by drawing on the work of a current cross-European, interdisciplinary, collaborative project that is developing a technology toolkit to enable creation of locally based DIY networking systems.

Rapid climate change is exposing subsistence farmers to enormous challenges, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa. Several foreign aid programs have been set up to cope with these issues, many of which have focused on technical solutions. However, there seems to be a large gap between scientific research and the needs of local communities. Besides focusing on new ways to improve the resilience of local food production, there is also an urgent need to adapt available knowledge to the local context. Based on experiences from a project to co-create community networks in Togo in 2020, we aim to empower local stakeholders, including farmers and scientists, to adapt existing knowledge of sustainable crop farming to current practices. New modes of knowledge exchange can be established with the help of participatory design. These methods may help to foster a collective approach to learning that enables people to cope with global challenges on a local level, all while valuing the traditional practices of local farmers and enriching them with scientific knowledge.

In recent years, Europe has witnessed an emergence of political activism through the irruption of new social movements –15M or Occupy–, the birth of new political platforms –5 Stelle, Pirate Party, Zyrisa, X Party– and the emergence of new direct action groups such as Anonymous, anti-eviction movements and cooperatives, to name just a few (Castells, 2012; Mason 2012; Della Porta, 2013; Micó & Casero-Ripollés, 2013). In some countries, this activism has not just led to substantial pressure upon the traditional actors of representative democracy and governments, but also seemed to open opportunities for structural changes in context and procedures of policy making. One scenario is the recognition of citizen claims and initiatives to have a bigger say in governance, or a greater deal of political participation in relevant decision-making processes (Keane, 2009; Rosanvallon, 2008; Saward, 2010, Tormey, 2014). Another scenario is the development of alternative means of access to collective services and mutual help outside the sphere of the state – possibly in the tradition of older social economy experiences (Graeber, 2013). Both scenarios may be combined in some cases. How do we interpret the rise of ngos, social networking, mass protests, diy politics and other forms of sub-politics in terms of the scenarios and perspectives of a diverse civil society and its social movements?
Those that create, promote and disseminate jazz are experiencing a period of radical change. The dwindling interest from the major labels in releasing jazz has led to a mushrooming of both traditionally imagined and virtual independent jazz labels, often musician-led by individuals or collectives. Despite the 'democratised' potentials of digital dissemination made possible through third party vendors and streaming services such as iTunes and Spotify, modest or non-existent advertising budgets and lack of coherent marketing strategies often result in independent releases being drowned in the noise of an overcrowded marketplace. Financial returns from limited sales are also modest. The commercial underpinning that in previous times afforded the jazz musician both potential apprenticeship and métier has become fractured through increasing scarcity of record company and private/public funding. Against this black backdrop, musicians have engaged in new ways of disseminating their work. DIY strategies, such as free download netlabels or interactive app-albums, have become increasingly commonplace. Fresh approaches — the need for which are highlighted in this article with reference to the European jazz scene — indicate how musicians are networking informally, often with little or no institutional support. This paper highlights to what extent market realignments have prompted individual and collective creative responses to current difficulties associated with the promotion of jazz music.
Статья открывает цикл публикаций по результатам исследовательского проекта, посвященного мероприятию «Городской пикник», которое ежегодно организует группа гражданских активистов из Омска. В рамках междисциплинарной методологии, сочетающей гетеротопологию М. Фуко с фреймовой теорией И. Гофмана, рассмотрены конкретные проявления основных признаков гетеротопии и особенности их осмысления создателями и посетителями «другого пространства» ; Foucault''s lecture "Of Other Spaces", which was delivered in 1967 and remained unpublished until 1984, was extremely influential for space and place studies and even became a manifesto of the spatial turn in the humanities and social sciences. The term "heterotopia", introduced in this lecture, has had a great impact on many different fields from urban sociology and human geography to cultural anthropology and literary theory but also has been criticized for opacity, inconsistence and incoherence. This article presents first results of the research project that tries to concretize and operationalize the concept of heterotopia and aims to demonstrate how it can be used in research on new Russian urban culture phenomena. Using interdisciplinary methodology that combines Foucauldian heterotopology with Erving Goffman''s frame theory, I undertake a case study of Omsk annual DIY urban public event called City Picnic to analyze how particular "other space" manifests itself and how it is being conceptualized by its creators and visitors. These research questions were answered by means of discourse analysis supplemented with some traditional cognitive-linguistic methods such as cognitive modelling and mapping, semantic category analysis, prototype analysis, and conceptual metaphor analysis. Data collected for discourse analysis includes various verbal and visual texts about 2012, 2013 and 2014 City Picnics: (1) posts, comments and discussions on its official website, in its group on social networking service "VKontakte", and in blogs; (2) media publications; (3) City Picnic logotypes, posters, banners, and maps; (3) photographs and photoshopped images made by City Picnic coordinators, members, visitors and journalists; (4) "spatial text" (zoning and design of the City Picnic territory). As a result, City Picnic was described as a space that exhibits the following heterotopological characteristics: otherness, alterity, and deviance; heterogeneity and diversity; contesting and inverting of the real spaces and places; compensatory intention; heterochronism; combination of eternitary and chronic heterotopias; concentration and representation of other spaces, places, practices and cultures; fractality; semi-publicness; being the other of the political and the other of the economical. The article concludes with the outline of further directions of City Picnic heterotopology that will require analysis of its para-political potential and discussion of the public space commodification problem as well as its framing / misframing mechanisms study that will shed light on the process of "reading" heterotopia.
