Abstract

This text is a basis for a poster describing the establishment of a mesh network of the inter-cultural computer clubs "come_IN". This idea of a mesh network that covers the whole neighborhood of a city results from experience within the project "come_IN" in Germany. In this work-shop we want to highlight the connection between social and technical intervention in practice. For discussion in the workshop we introduce our first detailed findings on devel-opment and usage of the mesh network.
