Announcing The Open Source Community Collider!

Can’t make it to all the open source events? Wish that hallway track lasted forever? Looking to meet and collaborate with more of the community?

OSSci’s Open Source Community Collider is for you! This event is designed to foster connections and spark collaboration within the NumFOCUS and broader open source and open science communities.

Date: August 9th

Time: 12:00 PM ET — 1:00 PM ET

Register to Attend: https://numfocus-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYpf-utrjojHNHR2XRRyBtOrb_X0BKLSQzi

Event Format

Our collider runs in three stages

• Stage 1: We’ll enter the main acceleration chamber for a 5 minute break-down of the event.
• Stage 2: After the introduction, we’ll inject ourselves into the collision chamber for multiple one-on-one calls of 4-minute intervals, switching targets after each block.
• Stage 3: We’ll reconvene in the main room for a group discussion and sharing session, analyzing the identified particles of conversation to inform future runs.

Open to All

Everyone in the community is welcome! We’ll provide several prompt questions to guide conversations, but feel free to talk about anything you’d like. The 4 minutes are yours to use as you and your companion see fit.

Future Events

If folks enjoy this use of time, we’ll look into organizing these collider sessions monthly.

Code of Conduct

We will be operating under the NumFOCUS Code of Conduct.

Don’t miss this opportunity to connect, share, and collaborate with fellow community members.

Who knows who you’ll bump into.
