The project particularly focused upon the role of hacking and read-writing as a characteristic of contemporary online practices and how this is mirrored in aspects of actual life within and across communities.<br \/>\nThe project was largely based within the Wester Hailes area of Western Edinburgh, where a network of residents and community based organisations worked alongside the academic team to establish design methods that put into practice the theoretical framework that had been developed through the project.<\/p>\n<p>Using storytelling as an initial method with which to investigate social practices, the team identified the principle of \u2018writing back\u2019 to a subject as a form of hacking. Subsequently the team ran a series of workshops that encouraged community members to \u2018write\u2019 their memories of the area on to photographs that were taken from the archives of a local newspaper. As a result of this formative work, the team (including the community partners) developed two design interventions for the area that would offer \u2018write back\u2019 facilities as constructive hacking platforms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Community Web2.0: creative control through hacking Sharon Baurley, Martin Phillips, Chris Speed, Amadu Khan and Jane Macdonald Three AHRC funded Connected Communities projects 2011, 2012 &amp; 2014 The Community Web2.0: creative control through hacking project sought to explore whether concepts and vocabularies emerging in relation to the Internet could usefully be applied to understandings of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":75,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-wide.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-797","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=797"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/797\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2349,"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/797\/revisions\/2349"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/75"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chrisspeed.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
