Everything Open 2026 - Day Three

By kattekrab, 28 January, 2026

EO2026 recap - part III - part I and part II
Emma Davidson - Open Source can have friends everywhere.
Entranced.  That's how I felt as Emma took us on a narrative journey weaving together First Nations storytelling, economic critique, and personal leadership lessons to argue that the sustainability of open source depends on diversity, institutional funding, and radical kindness. 

Vik Oliver - The Rep Rap Chap - has turned his 3D printing expertise toward the creation of tiny tiny things. 

And I spoke too.

Steve Da Costa - This was a mind warp. I'm still not entirely sure what to make of it. Everything Open Everywhere All At Once - the machine suggested it may be a plea for the open-source community to move beyond just writing code and start co-constructing a more observable, communicable, and honest reality. 

Lightning Talks - a blur - so many, so good.   I'll just mention one. Fraser Tweedale is taking his long running Freedom of Information request for access to the MyGov app source code to the Administrative Review Tribunal.  He needs our help to fund the case.
