## About

Tommi Marmo is a pseudo-artist, researcher, and community weaver who focuses on political technology, digital rights awareness, and data degrowth.

Tommi’s mission is to create bridges and connections, intertwining stories and experiences through inter-disciplinary activities that explore the most diverse topics. His work spans several fronts, and they committed to different fights over time.

Currently, they are pursuing a master degree at XPUB in Rotterdam, and they are the Community Engagement Lead at DWeb.

As a teenager, they were a speaker and chief editor at Radioimmaginaria. In 2019, they co-founded a local chapter of LIBERA, an Italian network of organizations fighting mafia through cultural and educational endeavours. In 2020, they invented and co-founded _Scambi_, the Festival of Paneurethic workshops, of which they are now the president. In 2023 they graduated summa cum laude in Philosophy, International Studies, and Economics with a thesis titled _Computer Sciences Are Social Sciences_. The workshop series _Knitting Our Internet_ was born out of the research for their thesis.

Being a relentless enthusiastic and curious person, Tommi also worked with many and various organizations, including the Free Software Foundation Europe, Village One and Giffoni Film Festival. They were a scout chief, and they were a member of the Association of Internet Researchers, the Coalition for Independent Technology Research, Banca Etica, and Club Tenco. They are the administrator of _Pan_, a Fediverse instance.

If there is any time left, or in case they can find some, Tommi contributes to Free Software projects, they play table-top role-playing games (TTRPGs), they cycle and they couchsurf around the planet.
