The University of Openess (Uo) is a framework in which individuals and organisations can pursue their shared interest in emerging forms of cultural production and critical reflection such as unix, cartography, taxonomy, physical and collaborative research. Any member may start a faculty to socialise their research with the Uo.
The Uo
* is a user led facility of learning and research with many temporary physical campuses, and one less temporary one at Limehouse Town Hall, London, and many online presences.
* runs a core curriculum and regular classes, and at present has several faculties listed and linked to from one of it's wikis at http://uo.twenteenthcentury.com.
* is administered by an orgiastic board with a floating Chairperson, Secretary, Treasurer and self-elected members of various denominations.
* is open to solicitation for prospective classes, faculties, symposia and more than you can possibly imagine.
Uo facilities include a media-lab, map room, library, wikis, a wireless industrial unit, and other distributed campus services. Research at the Uo can be any activity, the Uo is a mechanism for valorizing and building on or breaking down that activity. Although individual operations are useful for some purposes, the Uo provides an opportunity for socializing research activity - sharing results and engaging with others in the assessment and representation of research.
