[open-science] "HackYourPhD aux States" : a web documentary about OpenScience

Fri Jun 14 16:12:09 UTC 2013

Thank you  Brian

I realy appreciate your help and the great support of OpenScience
Federation since the beginning of HackYourPhD.

To facilitate the organisation, I've just created a
spreadsheet<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkQhh7Y8VYCQdEZJYUF1S2dacGdfRzI3eXdyU1pSc0E#gid=7>,
where you can add your name and your avaibility in order to meet me for an
interview.
It's a great idea to have a public event in each city with OKFN, Science
Online or Spot.on.  If you want to help me to organize it, feel free to
propose a date, a place...

Thanks again. And I'm looking forward to meeting all of you.

PS : we 've reached 65% of our crowdfunding campaign in 14 days.
If you want to give a hand, don't hesistate to share it and/or back it !

>
> It is a great idea to have a public event in each city you visit, and to
> combine Open Science events with broader OKF meetup groups.
>
> I know all of those cities have regular tweetups, hackdays, and panel
> events that intersect with Open Science, except Charlottesville. They are
> a college town, where all the Open Science activity I know of is associated
> with the University of Virginia, including the new Center for Open Science
> .
>
> In the cities, many Open Science related events are organized by
> ScienceOnline <http://scienceonline.com/near-you/>, in New York that plus
> SpotOn <http://www.nature.com/spoton/in/new-york/>, or  by nonprofits, or
> each city also has more than one university. There are fewer Summer
> events in general, but by combining groups who do not normally organize
> together, such as ScienceOnline, a university, and a local biohackerspace,
> there will be enough people and a good mix of Open Science.
>
> In addition to San Diego's, there are community wet labs in New York,
> Boston, San Francisco, and Seattle, and all of those cities have more than
> a few general hackerspaces that do some science. I'll talk to you soon
> with more specifics, let's see what anyone else adds. BG

>> *What is HackYourPhD ?
>>
>> *"Hack your Phd" launched in December 2012 in France, brings together a
>> diverse community around the issues of Open Science and Open Knowledge. It
>> gathers mostly *young scientists* (PhD students; post-docs; researchers)
>> but also *other profiles* like designers and social entrepreneurs.
>>
>> For 6 months, we have constituted a *daily collaborative curation* about
>> Open Science with a Facebook group<https://www.facebook.com/groups/499463776745202/>of more than 400 members (in French and English). We also organize
>> workshops about the new practices in research. The central idea is to use
>> the collective intelligence emerging from the different horizons
>> represented in our community through the new tools from science and open
>> education. HackYourPhd wants to show that new ways of doing research exist,
>> and can both benefit research itself but the relationship between science
>> and society as well.
>>
>> We already have organized *6 events in Paris* about specific topics (e.g
>> peer-review & scientific evaluation, new data representation with
>> mindmaping, etc.), and are planning to organize other workshops soon about intellectual
>> property & license in research, and how to write collaboratively a
>> thesis. Each time, a young researcher (PhD student or post-doc) proposes a
>> topic. HackYourPhD helps him to organize the event, connect people with
>> diverse profile and write a post in our website after. Most of the article
>> are in French right now but we will translate it in English soon.
>>
>> *Project of web documentary about Open Knowledge and Science:
>> “HackYourPhD aux States”: *
>>
>>
>> Open Science starts to have more visibility in France, most notably with
>> the work of OKFN France. But it stays something totally new for a lot of
>> researchers, media etc. It is important for *HackYourPhD to meet
>> existing Open Knowledge and Open Science* actors to bring all these good
>> inspirations in the French community.
>>
>> We thus launched a crowd-funding campaign that is still running. It's
>> about funding a trip to meet as many as possible actors of the* Open
>> Knowledge and Science field to show the diversity of initiatives and point
>> of views about those new practices.* My wish is to inspire and impact
>> our communities in France.
>> You can find there the detail of the trip and the purpose of this
>> project: *HackYourPhD.org/USA*
>>
>> *I contacted you to help me organizing this travel.* I would like* to do
>> several interviews of open science advocator from academic research,
>> startups etc.* I would like also to visit some innovative space as
>> bio-hackerspace, design school, Fablab, etc.
>> Then I would like to organize one local events in each city to meet you
>> around a drink. I know that OKFN is organizing a lot of meet up and *I
>> am keen of to be part of it or even organize one.* I have already
>> subscribed to the OKFN Boston and San Francisco meet up.
>>
>> Here is the global schedule with all the cities I will visit:
>>
>> *July 12th:* San Diego (a biohackerspace is opening soon, Joseph Jackson
>> contact)
>> *July 16th:* Los Angeles (We already have a meet up with a HackYourPhD
>> connector let me know if you live there or if you have some contact)
>> *July 19th to 26th:* San Francisco bay area (I am sure you have a lot of
>> contact there)
>> *July 28th to August 2nd:* transit to Seattle
>> *August 2nd to 8th:* Seattle (I am in contact with the Open Science
>> Federation)
>> *August 9th to 13th:* Montreal (I will organize a workshop about a
>> crowdfuning project with some friends there)
>> *August 14th to 20th:* Boston (I have some contacts there but I am sure
>> you can help me)
>> *August 21th to 26th:* NYC
>> *August 27th to early September:* Charlotesville (Open Science center)
>>
>>  Don't hesitate to contact me to share contacts of open
>> knowledge/science actors or even couchsurfers’.
>> We would of course greatly appreciate if you can spread the link of our
>> crowdfunding campaign in your social networks: HackYourPhD.org/USA
