Episode 5: Remote

Candid Contributions

This week we are talking about what it means and how it feels to be remote! Contextually recorded during the first wave of Coronavirus social-distancing measures in the UK, we talk about the challenges and benefits of online communities, and finding new ways to express ourselves using virtual presences. Thanks go to Janae Cram, Nathan Woulfe, Mark McDonald and Ewa Grabowiecka for their wonderful input into this episode.
We also discuss an upcoming virtual hackathon taking place on April 10 - April 11th (Easter weekend). This will run over the course of at least 24 hours and move through various time-zones allowing anyone to join regardless of where they are. Participants are encouraged to do everything from make their first open source contribution, to getting help finding new issues to work on, to just dropping in to say hi! We will be adding more details to the Candid Contributions site but in the meantime if you have any questions please don't hesitate to drop us a line.
Next episode will be : Change
