🗣 Do you like to chat? 🗣

Come join us on Matrix chat!

It’s not overly active. There are days when it’s quiet. It’s more like having friends in your pocket all the time. When you have something to say, there’s always someone willing to chime in. It’s also good if you just need someone to talk to.

If you want you can join via the web or your own Matrix app. Come join us! (please boost for visibility.)

Three common mistakes I’ve seen #FOSS people and other #introverted geeks make in #PublicSpeaking…well, as an introverted #FreeSoftware geek myself, these also things I have to keep in mind when I speak.

Slow…down. Speak at a consistent, slow speed. This ensures people don’t miss things, you get time to think, and people get time to absorb the information.

Speak loudly. There’s a limit to how much the microphone will do for you. Sometimes you won’t even have a microphone (e.g. when hosting outdoor #OpenStreetMap mapping parties) - learn to make yourself heard without one.

Don’t trail off. End your sentences with a consistent volume and pitch.

So how slow, and how loud? In a lot of cases I’d say WAY slower than what you call slow, and WAY louder than what you call loud 😅

There’s more, but this is the foundation of any talk. The best content in the world means nothing if it doesn’t actually reach your audience.

A lot of this is useful in everyday life too. Start practicing! 🙂

“Fascist AI” talk at LOOPS

The New Practice space at TU Berlin runs a series of talks called LOOPS. Together with my friend Malte I was invited to talk a bit about “Fascist AI”. How capitalism, fascism and AI narratives are very closely aligned and (re)produce one another.

I enjoyed giving the talk (I rarely do those together with others) and the Q&A and conversations afterwards immensely. You can check out a recording of the event here:
