=================================
|
|
|
|
Community is what motivates.
|
|
|
|
This page is about our community, *third culture* and how it works (our collective is a bit different).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I want to make this page to explain how to use third culture, as we have a lot going on so I want to demystify that a bit!
|
|
But first we need a bit of intro so you can get an idea why things exist and why we went this approach.
|
|
|
|
## Intro
|
|
|
|
**thirdculture** is a collective that takes a *counter culture* and DIY approach.
|
|
|
|
With building this collective I actually want to honestly try to live by a counter culture and DIY ethos. To do that I see the best way is to lead by example. Therefore most of what we have built for **thirdculture** is an honest attempt to achieve that!
|
|
|
|
Part of what informs the building of the collective is *libre* and *gratis* software also known as FOSS/FLOSS software (free (libre) and open source software). I understand the importance and relevance of this may be lost on a lot of artists so I added a bit more of an in-depth explanation [here](_foss). The TL;DR is that its the DIY art analog to computing and software.

## What we run
|
|
|
|
Everything below is self hosted by us with free software. Most of it opens with one [misaki](https://misaki.thirdculture.diy) account: <span class="badge">open</span> anyone can use it, <span class="badge">misaki</span> needs an account, <span class="badge hot">invite</span> must be an ask or given out at events.

## Where we hang out
|
|
|
|
Third culture hosts a public facing [ [forum](https://forum.thirdculture.diy) ]. It is the central place where our collective (and adjacent) discuss a wide range of topics with a slightly better standard of discourse than other means. This is probably the most accessible social part of thirdculture at the moment.
|
|
|
|
We are also on the [ [fediverse](https://social.thirdculture.diy) ]. We believe in decentralized modes of communication and social networks. It's really the only true way to gain the benefits of a social platform and avoid the drawbacks of control and authority latent in centralized structures. We strive to be a more tolerant and expressive community than most, while we do only accept members that resonate with our ideals and project in some way. For access drop a line to `moridori (at) disroot (dot) org` and if you're cool I'll drop a link. It's now on [misaki](https://misaki.thirdculture.diy) so you may request that way to. We also have an instagram alternative as well if you need your grids and scrolling.

|
|
We also maintain an [irc](irc/) server for group communication and a [mumble](mumble/) server for voice chat.
