We need a digitalisation liberating model.
The development of numerical technologies should provide us with tools to achieve the emancipation of society, but we know that this will not be the case, because we know that digital corporations will use the most used tools for data accumulation and, therefore, capital.
The uncomfortable, under-critical feeling of digitizing our lives is spreading among the population, but I'm increasingly hearing that the inertias we perceive in our daily lives are not good. In this perception, the new numerical habits that we have forcibly acquired the pandemic, which have deepened the pre-existing digital divide, or the fact of realizing the corporate digitalization of education that is becoming increasingly incomprehensible, which develops the abilities of students and teachers within the needs of Google and Microsoft, would have contributed. You will surely have to look at the development of digital bureaucracy, which supposedly come to help Ticket Yes, invoicing and digital signatures, which have hindered the daily lives of many small businesses and workers, questioning the viability of small local businesses.
"In our environment we have a wide range of organizations, tools and practices for an ethical and independent digitalisation model"
We know that digitalization based on indefinite data accumulation is not sustainable, that the cloud also consumes more and more scarce energy and metals, and so the current model has a physical limitation. But, as in other areas, why don't we politicize our daily digital? We will have to develop a digitalisation liberating model, in day-to-day and with strategic patience, politicizing focus and creating tools.
Fortunately, this need will catch us up, because in our environment we have a wide range of organizations, tools and practices for an ethical and independent digitalisation model. We can build much of the way for the organization with projects like EH Digital, the cooperative association TEKS or Librezale in Education; projects like Digital Democratic and Txikilinux for education; or hundreds of free tools that we can use for everyday life like Odoo, Nextcloud, Wordpress, Linux, Firefox...
We'll have to create more tools and projects, but if we develop the idea of another digitalization model, which is ethical and sovereign, to work relationships, to distribute care, to strengthen the community and to gain free time for enjoyment.

This weekend I've been thinking about the word 'aesthetic' in relation to a phrase said by a friend: “This work is aesthetic.” I have studied the etymology of the word aesthetic, it seems that its meaning was originally perceived through the senses, and it was later associated... [+]
