Welcome to the CC server!
Welcome to CC, a shared server infrastructure where tools, cultures and practices can cross, currently maintained by Simon, Manetta and Doriane from Rotterdam/Brussels.


Welcome to CC, a collective research on the entanglements of web-to-print practices with tools, cultures and infrastructure. Together, we run a server as part of this research, as a place where we can meet to reflect on these entanglements while participating in them. With CC we continuously try to find time to slow down, take care of the maintenance of the server, and to spend time together to think outside of the speed and temporality of sprints, commissions, projects, teaching and public programme activities. It is a space for pausing, digestion and reflection on web-to-print practices facilitated by invitations.
CC is currently hosting the following things:

Welcome to CC, a shared server infrastructure where tools, cultures and practices can cross, currently maintained by Simon, Manetta and Doriane from Rotterdam/Brussels.

CC is currently hosting the following things:

We propose to sign the collective calendar (on the right) when using any of these tools (which in practice is most often the octomode instance).

Below the calendar you can find the CC-collective conditions for use we formulated, which is something we would like to come back to revisit.
