ping @darshana can yo clarify what we are trying to say in this question
itsmisscs
> People in this community are also at the mercy of predatory landlords and the threshold for rent-regulation is too low
itsmisscs
specifically the rent regulation threshold
dzn
that is the statement that carlina submitted
itsmisscs
ah!
dzn
should have been two statements I think
itsmisscs
yup!
itsmisscs
we are making it two in spanish
dzn
sounds good
dzn
actually, leave it as one in soanish too
dzn
spanish too
itsmisscs
still doesn’t make sense…threshold for rent regulation is too low
dzn
will be easier to match up the 2 results
itsmisscs
it is too complicated to put them both together in spanish
dzn
then let’s split it in the english one too
itsmisscs
this is a confusing quetion
itsmisscs
we can split but i still dont’ understand what she is trying to say in the second part
dzn
that will come out in the pass statements
dzn
I don’t either
dzn
don’t want to translate for her
dzn
translate as in interpret
itsmisscs
we don’t have a lot of responses on it
itsmisscs
let’s reject and split out into just the first part
dzn
if people don’t understand it they will pass
dzn
yep!
dzn
that is best I think
dzn
split into 2 statements for both
itsmisscs
done
itsmisscs
i split out the first part only
itsmisscs
ugh annoying more polis errors
dzn
ugh 😕

Madrid has some neat processes, a mix of off-line and on-line: 1) They mail out ballots to vote on the top ideas; 2) They setup tables in popular area of the cities during the voting periods; 3) People can go into their district office to vote; 4) voting online
itsmisscs
the online system is supplemented with various offline forms and traditional mediums
itsmisscs
they also have a set voting time (~1 week).
itsmisscs
there’s is a mix of PB + vTaiwan, more PB in a way…“‘where should money be spent?” type questions
itsmisscs
litecoin at 87$ whoa!

I'm feeling better ish. Enough so that I'm able to keep my head up and work today. Sending mom and mitra off and then crawling into bed with computer. I don't wanna push it though. Took my mom to museum yesterday and started feeling really bad: chills, headache, congested. I'm pushing vitamin c as if it were the best drug ever and letting my body sleep when it wants to.
itsmisscs
But yes on flier. Got a bit of it started but was rather useless Friday and Saturday
dzn

@darshana did you register for https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/creative-workshop-solutions-for-the-biggest-challenges-of-civic-tech-tickets-36441755271#tickets?
Eventbrite
Creative workshop: solutions for the biggest challenges of civic tech
Creative workshop: finding solutions together for the biggest challenges of civic tech This a Civic Tech Fest side event. Remember to check out the whole festival, lots of cool event during the whole week. Civic tech is still a fairly new practice, even though we all work in different socio economical and political local contexts it seems the challenges we face are similar. Be it scaling to reach more people, making accessible to every one or even sometimes just having impact on the decision that is taken, those challenges are numerous. That's why we wanted to take advantage of the global gathering that is the Civic Tech Fest to organize a creative workshop to identify those challenges and work on solutions together. Help us identify those challenges by participating in this <http://pol.is|pol.is> conversation : <https://pol.is/2bf7vrrmnbThe> event format is Barcamp which is an open, participatory workshop-event, the content of which is provided by participants. We will split up in small interdisciplinary groups and make the best use of design thinking pratices to make sure we are able to work on prototype solutions and pitch results at the end of the event.

itsmisscs
once we get talk to nyc vision nailed i feel strongly that laundromat project would be a great way to get the project to harlem, or another community
itsmisscs
harlem would be rad bc you live there and i have past connections there.
itsmisscs
more manhattan pilots also gives us ammo with the BP office
dzn
yep!
dzn

dzn
I would love to get something going in Harlem
dzn
took a look at the trello OPT thing. Thanks!!
dzn
I’ll fill in the rest after we chat and then all set 🙂
dzn
on separate note, let’s try to use tripod for filming
dzn
we have nice content patches that lose focus or get shaky, particularly when the person behind the camera gets in on the conversation
dzn
also, I seem to have unsteady hands in general 😕
dzn
OMG premiere is amazing… it stabilizes camera shaking
dzn
god I love technology
dzn
some of it
dzn
I hate social media
dzn
lol. we’ve been using trello as a chat channel
itsmisscs
oooo amazing
itsmisscs
tripod is so clunky
itsmisscs
meh
itsmisscs
so much to cart around
dzn
yeah!
dzn
I’ll check how good the stabilization is with the videos we have but so far so good
itsmisscs
tripod is good for long interviews i feel
dzn

dzn
I’ll tell Danya and we correspond using that
dzn

talkto.nyc
This survey is designed to ask citizens about their personal concerns regarding the NYC housing crisis.
itsmisscs
3 of them! so interesting
itsmisscs
we definitely need a little in real time write up
itsmisscs
i think we should remove the district survey’s maybe?
itsmisscs
very cool. i think we have something going with the housing survey. more people would be great
dzn
we do need short snippets, also analytics…
dzn
some nice figs
itsmisscs
talkto.nyc
NYC organizations are putting together nonpartisan forums in which candidates can address the issues that matter to community members. This survey is designed to inform candidates of NYC Council District 2 of the issues that matter to District 2 community members.

we should connect with Victoria from NDI and civic tech fest
dzn
Hi everyone!
My name is Victoria Welborn and I work on open government programming here at the National Democratic Institute (NDI) in Washington, D.C. Our work has a strong focus on the intersection of innovation and government, which allows us the chance to support, coalesce, and brainstorm with some really cool organizations like you guys. Before working in democracy strengthening, I worked in digital communications as a creative consultant (video editing, design, social media, constituent outreach, etc.), so if there are any Avid fans out there- come find me.
I’m really looking forward to meeting everyone and learning all about your work.
See y’all soon!
