## Winnie: Interested in Computational Culture
I am interested in the cultural implications of digital infrastructure that addresses wider power asymmetries with a particular interest in computational publishing, code and software. My artistic and scholarly works engage with themes such as Free and Open Source Culture, Coding Otherwise, artistic/technical manuals, digital censorship and minor technology in the area of Art and Technology.

## Tzu Tung: Indigenous Land Dispute
<img src="https://hackmd.io/_uploads/r14YOkVLA.png" width="700">
<small> Many Indigenous movements occurred due to the injustice inheritance of colonial history as many governments had appropriated Indigenous traditional territory through its legal and contractual systems. The dispute between the government, the company, and the local communities has never ceased. For the recent case of Katratipur Solar Farm dispute and Asian Cement company are in such case.</small>

## Why Forknomy🌎🚢🌊

==Decolonize the Land==
Forkonomy() was initially developed in Taipei, Taiwan, the ancestral land of the indigenous Kavalan people. Historically, colonial powers such as Japan and the Republic of China (ROC) government have sought to pacify the island's inhabitants. Much like Ireland's experience with British colonization, Taiwan's land has been heavily influenced by these colonial structures and requires reform.

## South China Sea Geopolitics
<!--Winnie -->
<div style="float:left; width:50%">
<img src="https://www.graphicnews.com/media/GN/34488/W/jpg/EN" width="300">
<small>boundaries are constructed only in relation to land: three-mile zone and the two 12 miles international boundaries follow the coast line (UNCLOS 10 December 1982).</small>
</div>
<div style="float:right; width:50%">
</br></br>
- One of the world’s most heavily trafficked waterways for international trade
- Geopolitical site: one of the most disputable sea areas in the world over the territorial claims
- Multiple Asian governments assert sovereignty over rocks, reefs, as well as other geographic features and undersea natural resources.
</div>

## South China Sea Politics
<!--Winnie-->
==Why choosing South China Sea as a figurative and pirated object (of study) to think about forkonomy, digital commons and piracy?==
- Geopolitical site & colonial power (not only about the sea but natural resources e.g huge oil and gas reserves, economic trade, international relations, space, rights/power struggles)
- the sea gives an enormous trade value, military value, and world power.
- Indigenous territory issues (land/Sea/rights/ownership/contract)
- Buying/Owning (contract/licensing)
- Commoning (beyond privatized and state-owned property)
- resource for the communities
- grassroots
- code of conduct: how to operate in a fair, open, diverse, and more equal fashion

## Pirated water

## Forkonomy() Versioning
<!--Winnie-->
Forkonomy = Forking + Economy
> In the project Forkonomy(), we are interested in rethinking the politics of our contemporary economic and technical-cultural systems. By employing free and open source software and decentralized protocols, we set the participatory project as a commoning ship for people of the pacific who want to queer and care the matters of hierarchies, ownership, gendered labour division, as well as to fight against the constant threats of maintaining a high degree of autonomy regarding the land and the sea. Forkonomy() shall sail the economy and autonomy into a queer ocean of freedom and the sea of commonwealth.
Goal: How can the South China Sea be co-managed by the people around the world(beyond nations)?
