I’m running a workshop with Studio Voltaire for trans folks on hand-making personal online archives of our activism, advocacy, and resilience. I’ll be joining remotely, and Studio Voltaire will provide support to folks in person.
I’m very passionate about hand-coded websites, I think it’s intrinsically a beautiful thing to just edit HTML and CSS and make things happen on a web page. I also believe it’s vital that we adopt indie web principles in marginalised online communities, because the big tech platforms are not our friends! So this is about doing something joyful and vital, rather than about being a particularly proficient programmer (which I am not). Please join, and share this with folks who might be interested.
Zoyander Street hosts a hybrid online-and-in-person workshop on coding and content. This hands-on session focuses on practical digital skills for community use, including adding, updating and amending website materials, as well as incorporating accessible formats. In this workshop, participants will learn how to share and build digital skills; centre Trans health, autonomy and community-led knowledge; increase the accessibility of handmade personal websites; and keep archives socially active and sustainable. Desperate Livin’ is an interactive digital archive of materials created by and for members of the Trans community, supporting autonomy, health and resilience. The open-source website was compiled by Raju Rage and designed by Zoyander Street in 2022.
