Beyond surveillance capitalism: alternatives, stopgaps, Small Web, and Site.js.

Details

This is the talk on moving beyond surveillance capitalism with alternatives, stopgaps, and the Small Web that Aral gave at Creative Mornings Istanbul on 26 June, 2020.

The recording of the live stream has been edited to:

• Fix the 3-frame audio/video sync (live and learn: all HDMI output has a delay and if you are bringing in your microphone separately, you need to delay it while streaming/recording it).

• Reduce audio levels (like a rookie, I didn’t check my levels before starting the live stream so the audio is clipped. Can’t fix that but I lowered the audio track so at least now it’s not booming in your ears.)

• Cut out a part of my bumbling conclusion where I forgot the switcher on my screen instead of switching to my camera and then did a second awkward conclusion to camera when I realised.

We’ve also added closed captions (made using thisten.co), chapters (so you can skim/jump to relevant sections), and links to the tools mentioned in the talk.

All in all, not terrible for a first live stream with our new live stream setup.
