Hi Carlos, all,
It went very well. We managed to establish a link with NYCMesh, which
had a very nice impact I think.
We called this first effort "CN Encounter #1" and now we are waiting for
another CN to attempt #2 :-)
We have recorded everything but I will not have time to process the
material before the end of August.
At this stage there is only the description of the event, including a
few photos by George Klissiaris at the end:

Notice that Joly (ISOC NY) tricked most of us with a fake background of
a NYCMesh roof antenna:

When I realized, I felt a little embarrassed that I was running around
in the village square saying to people to come in quickly because there
is someone waiting on a roof of a skyscraper :-)
Despite this spectacular visual effect of Encounter #1, I think there is
a lot of room for improvement regarding the set-up which can have a
stronger impact (both visual and social) if there are many people
gathered on both sides.
Here is some brainstorming text on the concept (that needs to be updated
based on our first real experience):

Best,
Panos.

Contratulations Panos for going forward with this initiative.
Regretably I will not be in any community tomorrow (CDMX), but would
love to watch the stream if you plan to share it!
Have a great day tomorrow!

Dear all,
This Saturday, July 7, there will be a great opportunity to
establish a
live streaming link between two CNs across the
world.
See
https://www.netcommons.eu/?q=content/sarantaporo-conference-building-commun…
<https://www.netcommons.eu/?q=content/sarantaporo-conference-building-community-community-networks>
The netCommons project hosts many special guests from our community,
like Jane Coffin, Steve Song, Ramon Roca, and many more, who
will be all
together at the cultural center of the
Sarantaporo village with very
good Internet connection.
I have bought some affordable but of good quality live streaming
equipment (a good web camera and "room" microphone) to test how this
scenario could work in practice.
If any of you happens to be in a place which would make sense to
"connect" with Sarantaporo let me know to try something ad-hoc,
and
some
time in the future we organize it better.
Best,
Panos.
