You’re banned. Now what?
Has your social media account been banned? You’re not alone. In recent months, has seen a steep increase in the number of reports of Meta bans, specifically involving queer and cultural communities. Accounts and followings that may have taken years to build are gone without notice or explanation.
These bans are part of a pattern of digital censorship or digital suppression, platform practices that limit the visibility or availability of important information online. This includes content removals, account suspensions, shadowbanning, and other forms of algorithmic suppression. It is one of many arguments to move away from big tech’s social media, towards alternatives where we as users are in control.
So if you’re banned, here are five things you can do:
1️⃣ Report your ban to Repro Uncensored 
2️⃣ Challenge it! 
3️⃣ Redirect your audience 
4️⃣ Love your newsletter 
5️⃣ Experiment with alternatives
Or download the PDF, fold, and spread the word! 🗞️

More-than-Human is a perspective in which humans, nonhumans, technologies and environments are understood as entangled participants in the making of life, agency and worlds.

At Waag, a "more-than-human" perspective shapes how we research, design, and ask questions. We enter fields of relation: with communities, technologies, infrastructures, materials, environments, and nonhuman actors already involved in the situation.

We are always already ecological, sustained by microbial communities, weather systems, and soil.

Always technological, shaped by the tools and infrastructures we build.

Always relational, constituted through the beings and systems we depend on.

Last Wednesday, we unveiled Michael Pinsky’s Your Shit Smells Like Roses at the Water Bar near the Wetsus Campus in Leeuwarden.
This joyful moment marked the completion of the first phase of Michael’s residency within the AQUA MOTION S+T+ARTS programme.
Mentored by Waag and developed in collaboration with the Municipality of Leeuwarden and Wetsus, the project responds to the paradox of contemporary sewage systems, where human waste, detergents, cleaning products, pharmaceuticals, and other substances are mixed together into a complex and often toxic slurry. Through artistic research, the work imagines an alternative future in which these streams are separated and treated according to their different qualities and potentials.
The unveiling brought together representatives from the municipality, technicians, policymakers, collaborators from Wetsus, and Wetsus director Cees Buisman, among many others who contributed to the project. The work will remain on display in Leeuwarden throughout the summer before travelling to Amsterdam and Belgium later this year.

Ontmoet Marleen Stikker, een van onze ambassadeurs.⁠
Als directeur en oprichter van houdt zij zich bezig met de vraag hoe we samen de toekomst kunnen maken. Bij Waag staat technologie op basis van publieke waarden centraal. Als zoöp onderzoeken zij hoe technologie in relatie tot de omgeving kan worden ontworpen en gebruikt. De klimaattransitie speelt daarin een belangrijke rol.⁠

Maar hoe zorgen we er samen voor dat we ons niet machteloos voelen in deze grote opgave? Volgens Marleen kan cultuur daarbij helpen.⁠

Het Cultuurberaad Klimaat is een nieuw initiatief om een gezamenlijke klimaataanpak te ontwikkelen vóór en dóór de Nederlandse cultuursector. Elke cultuurmaker van kunstenaar tot directeur, van marketeer tot technicus kan deelnemen aan het beraad.⁠
