Almost done with Spanish translation of our survey
itsmisscs
00:51:48
ping @darshana can yo clarify what we are trying to say in this question
itsmisscs
00:51:54
> People in this community are also at the mercy of predatory landlords and the threshold for rent-regulation is too low
itsmisscs
00:52:13
specifically the rent regulation threshold
dzn
00:52:21
that is the statement that carlina submitted
itsmisscs
00:52:28
ah!
dzn
00:52:36
should have been two statements I think
itsmisscs
00:52:39
yup!
itsmisscs
00:52:42
we are making it two in spanish
dzn
00:52:53
sounds good
dzn
00:53:15
actually, leave it as one in soanish too
dzn
00:53:19
spanish too
itsmisscs
00:53:20
still doesn’t make sense…threshold for rent regulation is too low
dzn
00:53:30
will be easier to match up the 2 results
itsmisscs
00:53:50
it is too complicated to put them both together in spanish
dzn
00:54:11
then let’s split it in the english one too
itsmisscs
00:54:23
this is a confusing quetion
itsmisscs
00:54:41
we can split but i still dont’ understand what she is trying to say in the second part
dzn
00:54:46
that will come out in the pass statements
dzn
00:54:50
I don’t either
dzn
00:54:57
don’t want to translate for her
dzn
00:55:09
translate as in interpret
itsmisscs
00:55:12
we don’t have a lot of responses on it
itsmisscs
00:55:17
let’s reject and split out into just the first part
dzn
00:55:19
if people don’t understand it they will pass
dzn
00:55:23
yep!
dzn
00:55:28
that is best I think
dzn
00:55:35
split into 2 statements for both
itsmisscs
00:55:48
done
itsmisscs
00:55:54
i split out the first part only
itsmisscs
00:57:59
ugh annoying more polis errors
dzn
01:19:49

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
10:52:17
the online system is supplemented with various offline forms and traditional mediums
itsmisscs
10:52:33
they also have a set voting time (~1 week).
itsmisscs
10:53:06

^^ 2 new events that came in. I just registered
itsmisscs
00:57:01
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
00:57:45
But yes on flier. Got a bit of it started but was rather useless Friday and Saturday

@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: 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.![]()

dzn
03:18:46
we can group them some other way (but category of idea or something but pretty neat)
dzn
03:20:11
for the candidates it can be set up this way
itsmisscs
03:20:16
yes i got the reply
dzn
03:20:25

itsmisscs
03:20:30

itsmisscs
04:13:22
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
04:13:38
harlem would be rad bc you live there and i have past connections there.
itsmisscs
04:14:04
more manhattan pilots also gives us ammo with the BP office
dzn
04:16:10
yep!
dzn
04:16:34
and laundromat project will be such a great partner!!
dzn
04:16:44
I would love to get something going in Harlem
dzn
04:16:59
took a look at the trello OPT thing. Thanks!!
dzn
04:17:23
I’ll fill in the rest after we chat and then all set 🙂
dzn
04:18:01
on separate note, let’s try to use tripod for filming
dzn
04:19:25
we have nice content patches that lose focus or get shaky, particularly when the person behind the camera gets in on the conversation
dzn
04:19:38
also, I seem to have unsteady hands in general 😕
dzn
04:34:28
OMG premiere is amazing… it stabilizes camera shaking
dzn
04:34:35
god I love technology
dzn
04:34:42
some of it
dzn
04:34:47
I hate social media
dzn
04:49:16
lol. we’ve been using trello as a chat channel
itsmisscs
04:49:25
oooo amazing
itsmisscs
04:49:50
tripod is so clunky
itsmisscs
04:49:55
meh
itsmisscs
04:50:22
so much to cart around
dzn
04:50:22
yeah!
dzn
04:50:32
I’ll check how good the stabilization is with the videos we have but so far so good
itsmisscs
04:50:43
tripod is good for long interviews i feel
dzn
04:50:47
did you use the cc email to register?
itsmisscs
04:50:50
yes
dzn
04:50:53

dzn
04:51:08

dzn
04:51:43

itsmisscs
04:52:02
i wonder if they would be willing to beam us on via hangouts?
dzn
04:53:15

dzn
04:53:34
it’s in the evening here so conference time there
dzn
04:53:38

dzn
04:53:43

itsmisscs
05:52:42
so many exciting people going!!
itsmisscs
05:53:06

itsmisscs
06:11:46
i think we should remove the district survey’s maybe?
itsmisscs
06:13:18
very cool. i think we have something going with the housing survey. more people would be great
dzn
06:13:43
we do need short snippets, also analytics…
dzn
06:13:50

itsmisscs
06:15:27
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
02:00:13
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!

itsmisscs
08:26:38
Other news, @darshana, I got some premiere training tips and a good book on the art of editing. We can chat at our morning checkin. I’m just finishing breakfast but will still sit with you.
itsmisscs
08:27:44
Also adjusted our video settings. He recommends that we shoot in 4k. Not because we will use 4k, but because we can zoom in and crop our videos. I’m going to head out pretty soon after we sync to grab a bunch of SD cards.
itsmisscs
08:28:56
The only downside is we may find 4k video difficult to edit due to large filesize. There are some workarounds. I’d like to try today’s shoots in higher quality and we can decide from there.

applied to systemswe.love but was rejected

00:48:16
but a lot of conferences are great at being inward-looking, but not as good at looking out? (like self-care and inclusive community) but very few care about “let’s think about how we can positively contribute to the bigger system.”

RDU! flying back to Boston—I spoke at data & democracy on saturday
itsmisscs
00:49:46
yesss to your last point…perhaps that is what is generating this echo chamber feeling i’m getting
itsmisscs
00:49:52
how did it go?
thebestsophist
00:50:14
i kinda forgot to tell them to put me last—luckily they did it anyway 😂
itsmisscs
00:51:03
noice 🙂
thebestsophist
00:51:55
but also, several teams in NC are building their own statistical models to figure out which state house seats they can flip—when did statistical forecasting become a thing that random people could do on a whim?!
thebestsophist
00:53:22
(i mean—not random people—but seriously random middle class people putting together PACs and figuring out how to generate seed funding for candidates outside the normal party system?
itsmisscs
00:54:00
that’s dope
itsmisscs
00:54:06
anyone you remember?
itsmisscs
00:54:17
we are looking at a PAC in nyc for next local round

merci
thebestsophist

thebestsophist
00:56:00
they both have their own models, but also are collaborating and comparing models
itsmisscs
00:59:16
collaboration ++
itsmisscs
00:59:35
will look into what they are doing and reach on about basics of PAC formation
thebestsophist

thebestsophist
01:04:33
yeah…my next major trip is going to be an extended research trip across taiwan

thebestsophist
01:10:52
Chatted a bit with Nicole Fenton and she said similar things
itsmisscs

itsmisscs

happy to share any contacts with you
itsmisscs
01:19:06

thebestsophist
01:27:30
exactly!
itsmisscs
01:37:25
would be nice to have trainings, too. was really lucky to get to witness the work of Chia Hua in 臺北

20:46:59
cool. i can make do
itsmisscs
21:02:03
in terms of domain properties, i don’t think `talkto.nyc` should be a subdomain. the reason behind making it stand-alone was so it could be its own project. about page should include mention of parent company though.
dzn
21:04:10
yeah. agree
dzn
21:04:21
it is meant to be a community run thing
itsmisscs
21:04:24
yup

what view are you using?
itsmisscs
21:37:04
scale zoom down to 25%
dzn
21:50:12
that’s not the issue. The side panel shows that they are different sizes

> The City Planning meeting went on for five hours, and most of the people who testified spoke in opposition to the project, according to City Limits. Local residents’ primary complaints have to do with the fact that the current plan would allow for buildings as tall as 35-stories along Park and Third Avenue, a scale of development unheard of in East Harlem.
> Residents expressed concerns that the new projects would rapidly escalate rents and eventually displace them from the neighborhood. Others argued that the rezoning did not build on the East Harlem Neighborhood Plan, which locals had spent two years crafting.

i’m curious to know how these neighborhood plans happen. there seems to be a trend here between two opposing plans.

I’ll put it in

02:59:48
ty!
dzn
02:59:55
also, ‘govt’ not ‘legal’ I think
dzn
03:00:04
(like the picture by the way!!)
itsmisscs

hmm?
itsmisscs
03:00:19
govt no legal?
itsmisscs
03:00:25
i’m finding an image for 8
itsmisscs
03:00:52
and i will replace 16 since i used it already. have plenty of deliberation
itsmisscs
03:01:08
not sure i got the layout of the room correctly. i remember you took notes, right?
dzn
03:03:34
yeah
dzn
03:03:35
🙂
dzn
03:03:47
That was what my cryptic comment was about
itsmisscs
03:04:02
oh! replace 🙂
itsmisscs
03:04:09
change all you want
dzn
03:04:11
I’ll replace
itsmisscs
03:04:18
i will adjust colors in one go
itsmisscs
03:04:30
thinking our lighter pink or something
itsmisscs
03:04:45
colors and fonts and layout/positioning tweaks once everything is in
itsmisscs
03:04:55
that way i can save the styles and then use this as a base for our theme
itsmisscs
03:05:27
i propose we spot in a couple hours to run through the talk
itsmisscs
03:05:36
couple times tonight will make tomorrow much smoother
dzn
03:17:26
yeah
dzn
03:17:38
let’s run through a few times today
dzn
03:18:07
was changing colors around to differentiate organizers from attendees
itsmisscs
03:18:35
i think they look really funny when the comment pointer is long
itsmisscs
03:18:39
tech crew
itsmisscs
03:18:51
my recommendation is one of our lighter pinks
itsmisscs
03:19:03
shouldn’t use same pink as the label…it detracts
itsmisscs
03:19:17
let’s finish slides first 🙂
itsmisscs
03:19:33
then we can work on colors and adjustments calmly
dzn
03:22:56
I moved it all to white and blue
dzn
03:23:08
much better than pink
dzn
03:25:21
Getting icons for stakeholders
dzn
03:25:49
hard to squeeze everything in with no long pointers
itsmisscs
03:26:08
move the pointer to the side
itsmisscs
03:26:21
or move it above and place the label below
dzn
03:27:03
fixed it
itsmisscs
03:53:41

was thinking it should be really somber either way…lots of opacity if we go for an image
itsmisscs
03:54:50
there are also the ones of youth on the streets or playing in fountains that i like
dzn
03:56:27
Like the images a lot but don’t think they go with the quote
dzn
03:56:36
the quote looks nice plain too
dzn
03:56:40
just pink and black
itsmisscs
03:56:44
yeah, i was thinking of living it plain
itsmisscs
03:57:13
the juxtaposition was that the 70s/80s was nyc’s first big change to dwelling…buildings sold etc
itsmisscs
03:57:16
but i think plain is nice

yeah, i like ++

dzn
04:31:12
take a look at dropbox?
the two video options are in the Taiwan folder
housing-protest-height-restrictions —— excellent audio but bad video
^^ if you like this one much better then we can put in a picture and audio

the stakeholder icons are in here https://pad.riseup.net/p/icons
dzn
04:48:20
I’ll continue
itsmisscs
04:48:33
are you not building the slide?
dzn
04:48:41
get back from the bank and we touch base again
itsmisscs
04:48:58
watching video first then will leave
dzn
04:50:29
ah. I thought you wanted to build it which is why I moved to watchout
dzn
04:50:38
either way is fine with me
itsmisscs
04:50:45
ah. no thought you were taking that slide
dzn
04:50:49
cool
itsmisscs
04:50:50
through to finish
dzn
04:51:07
I added one more image to the watchout thing
itsmisscs
04:51:13
yup ++
dzn
04:51:16
I like their metric thing
itsmisscs
04:51:34
yup wanted to add that! thank you!
itsmisscs
04:53:07
they are both good
itsmisscs
04:53:12
think they both need to be trimmed though
itsmisscs
04:53:16
whichever you want to go with
dzn
04:53:32
the videos?
dzn
04:53:35
yes
itsmisscs
04:53:38
yeah
dzn
04:53:42
I know
itsmisscs
04:53:51
i’m fine with either, just need to be tightened in places
dzn
04:54:04
I like the content for the one with shitty video
dzn
04:54:07
which is sad
dzn
04:54:09
so…
itsmisscs
04:54:11
i don’t think it so bad
dzn
04:54:15
audio with better content
dzn
04:54:20
or audio+video
itsmisscs
04:54:38
it has a couple moments where the video jumps that we can either use a still or just let it be
itsmisscs
04:54:50
are you watching at full res on your machine?
itsmisscs
04:55:19
i like the content from both…strong points at the end of protest
itsmisscs
04:55:25
and the story of the other is good
itsmisscs
04:55:28
why not merge?
itsmisscs
04:55:47
we can also swap…happy to wrap up editing if you want to take the presentation over
dzn
04:58:20
I’ll take care of the video
dzn
04:58:24
shouldn’t be long
dzn
04:58:41
I think merging will be too long, but will see
dzn
04:58:56
there are some chunks in the middle that need to go (redundant)
dzn
04:59:27
mixing stills in will be too much I think, it takes a while to get it smooth
dzn
04:59:38
I’ll do our usual icon page
dzn
04:59:49
and then switch to video
itsmisscs
05:00:07
okay
itsmisscs
06:16:36
I’m back @darshana
itsmisscs
06:16:41
i like the icons you chose
itsmisscs
06:17:35
not so sold on image for #23. what were you going for image wise/what were your thoughts on what the image should convey?
dzn
06:21:59
i know
dzn
06:22:06
found a new artist
dzn
06:22:14
that’s a picture from metropolis
dzn
06:22:21
was looking for a sci-fi feel
itsmisscs
06:22:25
yup. i recognized it
dzn
06:22:56
what about a sci-fi city pic ^^
itsmisscs
06:23:22
doesn’t fit
dzn
06:23:53
none of them??
itsmisscs
06:23:56
i think it needs to be more modern in tone…can be futuristic, which i like your idea, but needs to feel attainable
dzn
06:24:01
there are some more muted ones
itsmisscs
06:24:15
they don’t feel real
dzn
06:24:22
modern is tons of buildings like NYC on steroids
itsmisscs
06:24:36
not hard modern
itsmisscs
06:24:48
like…modern playground or something
itsmisscs
06:25:04
cities that are liveable…new approaches to housing and play areas
dzn
06:26:40
I like the concept, depends on picture though…
dzn
06:26:50
would be nice to have it a bit out there
dzn
06:26:54
I think
itsmisscs
06:27:14
i feel like it needs to feel attainable
itsmisscs
06:27:25
these are not things that are impossible
dzn
06:30:28
sure. poke around and see what comes up
itsmisscs
06:30:55
i’ll give it a look. may be hard to find something. haven’t been following any architects
itsmisscs
06:31:03
do you wanna go through this a couple times?
itsmisscs
06:31:19
need to run out for 5 min to find mitra’s toy but ready to run through otherwise
dzn
06:31:25
tadao ando’s buildings might actually be good
itsmisscs
06:31:45
i’ll take a look..not a bad idea
itsmisscs
06:32:11
brb then let’s run through
itsmisscs
06:33:55
not quite this but something like this type of thought…not a fan of the renders. to low fidelity

> Taiwan has been experimenting with bringing citizens and government together in a civic deliberation process for crafting digital legislation. Our process, vTaiwan, brings people directly into governance and helps lawmakers implement decisions with a greater degree of legitimacy. We see our project as an adaptable and reproducible prototype for future democracy.
