Email: todd.y at ieee.org

I design information systems that bridge business strategy and technical execution through rapid low-code prototyping (MBA + data engineering background)—seeking product/operations roles where speed-to-value and stakeholder collaboration matter.

I have a key for https://once.com/campfire by 37Signals.com, which is an alternative to Slack, that I could offer in-kind to Hack Club - if desired.

It's open source and you own your own data.

I love the idea of a Jazz Kissa, but I wonder if this would even work in the U.S. due to intellectual property/rights restrictions.

It was probably less of a problem when you owned physical copies, but I don’t see it working (legally) with digital rights restrictions.

I worked as a barista over a decade ago and our cafe paid a not insignificant amount of special CDs that were allowed for public retail use (Muzak?)

The public document - PLAN FOR THE ARTIST-OWNED INTERNET - zine subvert published yesterday has quite a bit of detail on the complexities and possibilities in the governance and benefit of the co-op. The team supposedly includes lawyers and economists.

I think silicon valley actually LIKES founder fiefdoms. Not really the same spirit as worker cooperatives. The cap table is the game.

You might underestimate the power games that are artist royalties agreements and the current domination by large corporates.

I assume there will be some energy within the cooperative to establish some shared means of production. It seems probable.

> > PURCHASE ZINE

> Is the only way to get a copy of the manifesto, really to purchase it (or join as a member)? How is someone supposed to even know whether they want to be involved in the project, if they aren't allowed to read the document first?

The ZINE is publicly available: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ra6r2zSkw7NCYNTAqP9923ValZi...

Mondragon is a great model demonstrating the greater possibilities within complementary-industry cooperative economy. Mondragon is partnership between and across industries.

I could see the regional distribution of industry across/within geography, as applied within Mondragon, mapping well to genre distribution across/within industry production tooling/technologies for Subvert.

They're being very open about the legal structuring too, with open source legal docs and agreements.

I could see the economics working similar to OpenCollective, but different governance. I know OC announced a restructuring recently, but I don't think it's a co-op model.

This sounds like enshittification itself, in its own way. Rotating hands to the highest bidder.

It's structured as a multi-stakeholder cooperative, from what I understand.

"Building an artist-owned platform is a complex challenge, but it’s one we are uniquely positioned to solve. Our growing coalition includes founders of Ampled, a project that helped pioneer the concept of cooperative platforms, as well as artists, music industry professionals, and specialists in cooperative law and platform economics. "

From a introductory blog post.

I'm glad to see new concepts emerge like this that challenge the governance and benefit of platforms by shareholder corporations for their own self-interested purposes.

I joined as a "Founding Supporter" of the Subvert co-op last night when I saw a post on my Twitter (X) feed.

I really hope to see more tech cooperatives in the future. The dominant paradigm of neo-fiefdom tech platforms is both tired and uninspiring.

As a founder of a SaaS company that was formed as Delaware PBC, I will say that this route does make it quite hard to follow the traditional fundraising path.

VCs are spooked by anything that’s not your run-of-the-mill C Corp. PBCs are hard to get off the ground.
