SUMMARY:Zine Launch and Social for "Fuck a Cellicon Valley: Against the Proposed Development of Bartram's North and South"
DESCRIPTION:Join us Sunday\, February 19th at 3:30 p.m. to celebrate the launch of “Fuck a Cellicon Valley\,” a zine about a development plan that would displace residents and destroy wild space in the area around Bartam’s North and Bartam’s South. We’ll have snacks and free zines! \nRead the zine\nPrint the zine \nHere’s an excerpt: \nAfter we heard rumors about UPenn developing the land around Bartram’s North we did some research and discovered an evil plot. In 2013 a group of economists\, developers\, city planners\, and other villians came up with the Lower Schuylkill Master Plan\, a 143 page document envisioning a “21st century industrial district” in Southwest Philly along the Schuykill river corridor. The report details massive development projects to be carried out over 20-25 years. Reading the report in 2023 provided us with some answers and many many questions.  \nThe Master Plan is worth looking over carefully if you are someone who cares about environmental destruction and gentrification. You can find it online at https://www.design.upenn.edu/sites/default/files/LSMP_Small.pdf  \nThe plan breaks up the development projects into three sections. The first is a Logistics Hub\, connected to the Philadelphia Airport\, whose recent expansion destroyed wetlands to build a cargo facility. We’ve already seen how this has gone down for the FDR meadows. The second is the Energy Corridor in South Philly\, where they are currently focused on remediating decades of industrial pollution from oil infrastructure. The remediation is predicted to take years\, then they’re going build factories.  \nThe third zone\, the Innovation District\, is the focus of this zine. Because it is closest to us\, because it threatens the places we live in and love. In writing this zine\, we hope that other people will look into the master plan and oppose gentrification as they see it manifest in their contexts.  \nThe Innovation District consists of the Pennovation Center and the areas near Bartram’s North and Bartram’s South including some wild lands and spaces. We spend a lot of time in those spaces and despite what developers think\, there is already vibrant activity\, innovation\, and life\, we don’t want to see the area get paved over and built up. \n… \nThe Lower Schuylkill Biotech Campus is part of what people at the University of Pennsylvania are calling “Cellicon Valley”. It’s an attempt to brand Philly as the next hi-tech hotspot for pharmaceutical companies and research institutions. Like Silicon Valley\, Cellicon Valley is a bad and annoying idea that should never come to fruition. It’s literally a scheme to capture\, commodify\, and sell us ways to live\, by destroying and locking us out of the ways we live.

SUMMARY:💾🌾 Permacomputing Meetup
DESCRIPTION:Our next permacomputing meetup is on Sunday\, February 12th at 1:00 PM EST. You can join us in person at Iffy Books (319 N. 11th St. #2I\, PHL) or via Jitsi audio stream. \n\n\n\n➡️ Jitsi Stream Link\nFrom Permacomputing.net: \nPermacomputing is a more sustainable approach to computer and network technology inspired by permaculture. Permacomputing is both a concept and a community of practice oriented around issues of resilience and regenerativity in digital technology. \nIn a time where computing epitomizes industrial waste\, permacomputing encourages a more sustainable approach\, maximizing hardware lifespans\, minimizing energy use and focussing on the use of already available computational resources. We do this because humans are part of nature and technology is an extension of humans\, and we acknowledge that technology has been used to harm nature. We want to find out how we can practice good relations with the Earth by learning from ecological systems to leverage and re-center existing technologies and practices. We are also interested in investigating what a permacomputing way of life could be\, and what sort of transformative computational culture and aesthetics it could bring forward. \nIf you want to know more\, please start reading about what is permacomputing in essence\, and then dive into its principles. \n

SUMMARY:Philly ABC Letter Writing for Alex Stokes
DESCRIPTION:Philly ABC is back with our regular letter-writing events this month featuring Alex Stokes\, an antifascist prisoner sentenced to 20 years for defending himself and others from armed Proud Boys at the New York State Capitol on January 6th. \nAlex is a journalist and artist from Albany\, NY. He began documenting social unrest in 2014\, and was arrested with over 200 protestors and independent journalists during #DisruptJ20 in Washington DC. He was injured during the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville\, VA\, and has routinely attended Black Lives Matter protests in Albany throughout 2020. He also regularly exposed local white supremacist groups and members. \nOn January 6\, 2021\, multiple members of the Proud Boys—a nationwide far-right gang—gathered outside the New York State Capitol in Albany\, NY in support of the larger “Stop the Steal” rally in Washington DC. A fight broke out with counter-protestors as one Proud Boy tased a Black man who had his hands in his pockets\, and another beating a woman over the head with a flag pole. Alex was watching from the sidelines and ran to help those being attacked\, at which point he was also assaulted and managed to fend off multiple attackers\, injuring two of them\, and helped get other victims away from the fray. The Proud Boys involved did not receive any charges. Alex was charged with first-degree assault\, among other charges. \nIn November 2022\, despite video evidence from multiple angles showing this very clear cut case of self defense\, and despite the fact that no one died or received life-altering injuries\, Alex was found guilty and sentenced to 20 years in prison. His previous work and experience with exposing dangerous hate groups was inadmissible for his defense. The prosecution picked apart his social media accounts and portrayed his actions as premeditated. Alex is currently appealing the sentence. A fundraiser has been launched by the International Anti-Fascist Defence Fund to ensure that his appeal case does not lack financial resources. \nJoin us this Monday at 6:30pm\, at Iffy Books (319 N. 11th St. #3E). Snacks and letter-writing supplies will be provided. If you cannot make the event\, please send Alex some love at: \nAlex Contompasis #22B5028\nElmira Correctional Facility\nPO Box 500\nElmira\, New York 14901 \nWe’ll also be signing birthday cards for political prisoners with birthdays in February: Veronza Bowers (February 4th)\, Kamau Sadiki (February 19th)\, and Oso Blanco (February 25th). \nfrom the Philly ABC blog

SUMMARY:🔊 Make your own MP3 boombox
DESCRIPTION:Join us at 3:30 p.m. on Sunday\, February 5th and make your own MP3 boombox! We’ll use the DFPlayer Mini MP3 player board (below)\, which has an SD card slot and a built-in 3-watt amplifier. You’ll set up the MP3 player controls on a breadboard\, connect speakers and a battery\, and mount everything in a cardboard enclosure. \nWe’ll have a kit available for $15. The kit includes a DFPlayer Mini board\, two small breadboards\, an 18650 battery\, and several other parts you’ll need. (If you can’t afford the kit\, you can still join us for the project.) \nPlease bring scavenged speakers if you have them! (We’ll have speakers to share\, but we aren’t 100% sure we’ll have enough for everyone.) Old computers speakers\, speakers from broken CD players\, and over-the-ear headphones are likely to work well. 3-Watt speakers are ideal\, but you can experiment with other sizes. \nYou’ll also need a Micro SD card (32GB or smaller).
