Claire L. Evans is a LA-based writer, musician and the author of Broad Band: The Untold Story of the Women Who Made the Internet. She’s also one of the most eloquent, articulate and witty people we’ve met to reflect on the state of the Internet today.

For episode 15 of The Community Podcast we talked with Claire about how she met the women who built the internet, how they translated traditional communication formats to the digital world, and what we can learn from early virtual communities about power dynamics, politics and how we connect today.

The first session of Welcome to the World Wide Web, our series of conversations with SPACE10, kicked off in Copenhagen yesterday.

We talked about how the next generation of internet users will navigate the unknown, find their way and use maps to gain power over their land.

Full recap out soon.
 

The winners of Samsung NEXT's Stack Zero Grant Program have been announced. Out of more than 100 applications 9 projects were awarded with grants between $25k and $75k to develop the internet's future infrastructure.

We've conceived and executed Stack Zero together with Samsung NEXT and are excited to be able to support projects that use decentralization technology to empower individuals and communities.
 

Thank you for reading and enjoy your day.
