- What Is The Fediverse | FourthPortal
< Back What Is The Fediverse The Fediverse is the buzziest new thing in social networking is a big deal. It’s also very confusing. And it’s not actually new. It’s an interconnected social platform ecosystem based on an open protocol called ActivityPub, which allows sharing of content, data, and follower graph between networks. The Verge 21 Apr 2024 "The fediverse is as if you took X, TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook and made them all interoperable so you could post anything from anywhere, and all your followers would be guaranteed to see it. And if you wanted to leave one platform for another, you could bring all your content, all your followers, all your everything with you. Oh, so it’s a new social network! Why didn’t you just say that? It’s actually lots of new social networks ! A bunch in the fediverse already exist, and lots more are coming. But the interconnection is the thing: instead of having all your Facebook stuff on Facebook and all your X stuff on X, the fediverse allows them to interoperate. That’s really the big shift here."

James Brandell, aka Funki Porcini, is a British music provocateur and humorist of the early Ninja Tunes period. Mixing together surreal jazz, found noise, synthetic strangeness and dream logic. "Funki Porcini" is a twist on "Funghi Porcini", the Italian name of the mushroom Boletus edulis, commonly known as "penny bun". He spent ten years in Italy making music for film and television.[ Thereafter, he returned to England. In 1994, he signed to independent record label Ninja Tune and set up his own studio, The Uterus Goldmine.

- Alternative Gravesham
An experimental all-day open event to showcase some of Gravesham's more unusual goings-on. Performance and presentations were tilted towards new technology, although they were not essential. Alternative Gravesham < Back 12 August 2023 An experimental all-day open event to showcase some of Gravesham's more unusual goings-on. Performance and presentations were tilted towards new technology, although they were not essential. Previous Next About the event Alternative Gravesham was an all-day experimental Saturday open house event, inviting artists, technologists, writers, and inventors to bring in their latest idea, performance, art or innovation. This event was lightly curated, on a first-come, first-served approach. Focused on being a relaxing and fun day, the day was to encourage residents of Gravesham to show the stuff they are creating in their bedrooms, shed or studio - we were pretty open to showing almost anything. Visitors to the Fourth Portal were encouraged to engage with the work, enjoy a beer or a coffee and see what is inspiring the local underground.

- Fourth Portal
Portal B transforms a traditional English pub into a futuristic cafe bar shared workspace offering light locally sourced food, soundart and electronic performances and talks. Portal B | St John's Head Portal B status updated June 2021 Pandemic Lockdown and Restrictions Portal B opened in June 2020 with many restrictions following the first UK Covid-19 lockdown. A licensed premises, Portal B was unable to host live gigs, workshops or exhibitions. Customers could only enter the premises with people within their own household and were not allowed to stand or move around. A further lockdown in November 2020 and the ongoing restriction from May 2021 when guests were again allowed with table seating only inside made the project unviable. Learning and Virtual Portals Although Portal B was an exceptionally difficult situation, the learning from creating the space and how it engaged those who visited did provide useful insights that contributed to the thinking behind Portal D and particularly Portal C. This will be written up and posted on the journal pages on this website and the Haphazard.Business blog, which is documenting the portal's creation process. 20 June 2021. Original Text and Plan for Portal B pre-pandemic March 2020 Portal B transforms a traditional English pub into a futuristic cafe bar shared workspace offering light locally sourced food, soundart and electronic performances and talks. Work Lounge Surrounded by challenging art, this comfortable conceptual oasis encourages discovery of fascinating innovations and facilitates discussion on the wider impact of technology, climate change and the implications for work and business. Garden Front and rear seating areas offer alternative, relaxed spaces to work, study, meet friends and develop new ideas and while away time. Gigs Live soundart and audio performances, invited talks and discussions celebrates sound, audio and acoustics and offers information on careers and entrepreneurial opportunities available in the field.
