SUMMARY:otherWise: Autonomous communications and Dash Chat\, with Eric B
 ear
DESCRIPTION:otherWise invites you to a conversation about Dash Chat with
  Eric Bear of darksoil studio. Dash Chat is a secure messenger designed 
 to work when the internet goes down — like Signal when connectivity is
  normal\, switching to local networks (WiFi\, Bluetooth\, LoRa) during s
 hutdowns\, and bridging between disconnected areas and the global intern
 et when possible. Authoritarianism is rising globally\, and internet shu
 tdowns are one of its tools. Access Now documented 296 shutdowns across 
 54 countries in 2024.\n\nThe gathering will be half informational\, half
  workshop: we'll share our approach and roadmap\, then explore together 
 where else shutdown-resilient communication matters\, what frames and na
 rratives move people\, and why — leaving with sharper ways to talk abo
 ut this work and a deeper shared stake in it.
