How citizen science and open-source tech can create change
Citizen science often gets a bad rap, but a new short film shows how people who take research and data collection into their own hands can influence local environmental policies.

What if…public libraries could anchor a platform cooperative?
Supporting the disrupted going forward….
We recently published our submission to the Libraries Taskforce consultation about its draft strategy – Libraries Deliver: An Ambition for Public Libraries in England 2016-21. Today, we want to say a bit more about our having called upon the Taskforce to explore the opportunities for public libraries that could flow from the growth of the ‘sharing economy’ and, in particular, moves to establish Platform Cooperatives.
Robert Steele: An Open Letter to All European Ministers on Peace Through Open Everything
#OSE Open Source Everything, Data, Design, Economics/True Cost, Governance, Innovation, Knowledge, P2P / Panarchy, Politics, Resilience, Science, Software, Sources (Info/Intel), TransparencyAn Open Letter to All European Ministers
Esteemed Ministers,
On 27 May the Competitiveness Council in Brussels announced a European decision to achieve Open Access to all scientific research data by 2020. This decision, and the implementing European framework programme for research and innovation Horizon 2020, will be recognized by future generations as the first serious step toward the creation of a prosperous world at peace. With this one decision Europe is turning away from centuries of war and waste; away from scientific reductionism, away from corporate ownership of public knowledge, away from legal barriers to innovation, and away from government neglect of the public interest.

All European scientific articles to be freely accessible by 2020
All scientific articles in Europe must be freely accessible as of 2020. EU member states want to achieve optimal reuse of research data. They are also looking into a European visa for foreign start-up founders.

The Future: Recent “Core” Work by Robert Steele
Marcin Jakubowski: Open Source Imaging — $10K Instead of $1M
Crowd-Sourcing, Design, Materials, Science
Welcome to Open Source Medical Imaging. A prototype machine will be $10k in materials instead of $1M off the shelf, and first images are expected next year. Lukas has received a Shuttleworth Foundation Flash Grant for this work, and just presented this at the world’s largest MR conference.Berto Jongman: Open Science – the Future?

Open science: the future of research?
If we want to eradicate diseases in the developing world, increase innovation in the pharmaceutical industry and speed up the discovery of new medicines we need to share research, writes Alice Williamson.
…the ‘six laws’ of open research:
- All data are open and all ideas are shared for others to use, modify and share
- Anyone can take part at any level
- There will be no patents
- Suggestions are the best form of criticism
- Public discussion is much more valuable than private email
- An open project is bigger than, and is not owned by, any given lab
