The notion of going Open Source, is conquering the world. It seems to be a completely new concept which goes against the general current. But, is it in reality something new, or a re-emergence? This speech will through the lense of anthropology explore the history of Open Source from pre-history to the present. This tale will revolve around, and embed itself, in the essential practice of cultural circulation. The form will be both entertaining and informative.
Gregers Petersen is an anthropologist who presently researches the intersections between Open Source Software and the market. He is a prior board-member of BSD-DK and his sparetime is spend in company with wireless networks. Gregers Petersen lives with his wife and children in Copenhagen.
