ITS ALL GONNA BREAK on Instagram: "SCENIUS, coined by Brian Eno in 2009. is described as the phenomemon that creative people are better when working together in connection. Where creatives encorage each other with experimentation, mixing and sharing of ideas,all peppered with friendly competition to inspire. Creating a cutural scene that is fertile where genius is birthed from. Toronto in the early 2000’s is a perfect example of SCENIUS."

The Astrosky Ecosystem: An independent online platform for science communication and social networking

While almost everything that astronomers study occurs in the vacuum of space, astronomy itself does not `happen in a vacuum'. Interactions between scientists, as well as outreach to members of the public, improve extensively from access to good communication tools. Social media has become a key tool for communication in astronomy, being widely used by individuals and organizations alike for networking, outreach, and more. However, traditional social media is reliant on benevolent corporations providing a free service without compromising on quality, and the recent takeover and decline of Twitter has shown how vulnerable these platforms can be. In this proceeding, we present The Astrosky Ecosystem, which is an initiative to develop open-source tools and integrations for social media, principally the Bluesky social network. We explain how our project enables the astronomy community to operate its own social media infrastructure, independent of for-profit corporations. We also discuss some of the project's technical aspects, including its use of the AT Protocol for social networking, before concluding with ideas for the future.
