Fellowship interview with Smári McCarthy
,----[ Quote ]
| Smári McCarthy is a thoughtful anarchist and practical chaos technician -
| with a deep interest in Free Software and democracy. Currently serving as
| project manager for the Icelandic Innovation Center, Smári works on digital
| fabrication and peer-to-peer education, while spending his spare time
| breaking the fundamental assumptions of how we organise society. I sat down
| for an interesting interview with Smári, in which he explained his projects
| and how they can contribute towards a more sustainable world.

Changes in FSFE: Time to pass on the torch
,----[ Quote ]
| Karsten Gerloff, FSFE’s new President, spent the past years at the UNU-MERIT,
| working with people such as Rishab Ghosh to provide the scientific basis for
| the political change around Free Software. Before that he was an intern at
| FSFE, working with me at the United Nations, specifically the World
| Intellectual property Organisation (WIPO), he is familiar with FSFE’s policy
| work and I have no doubt that he will be able to represent Free Software
| effectively on all levels.

The smallest unit of freedom: a Fellow
,----[ Quote ]
| Stian Rødven Eide: Your involvement with GNU/Linux started while you were
| active in the demoscene, which was rather huge in Finland during the
| nineties. Were you already familiar with the philosophy of Free Software at
| that time? Was the culture of studying, sharing and improving each other’s
| code relevant to the demoscene?
|
| Timo Jyrinki: I don’t think I was really familiar with the Free Software
| philosophy at all at that time, and not even for some time after starting to
| use GNU/Linux. The demoscene did have an atmosphere of improving on other’s
| ideas, but actually seeing code was mostly totally out of the question,
| except for maybe some snippets. My real introduction to Free Software came
| from my involvement with Wikipedia.

| September 2003.
