Physical Live Demonstration of Decentralisation with Matrix

This session is facilitated by Ben Parsons, Neil Johnson

Show on schedule

About this session

We will set up 3-4 Raspberry Pis, each running a matrix server. These servers will communicate and connect between themselves and with the outside world. When a server is physically disconnected (unplugged), it will no longer be part of the network, but the rest of the network will continue to function. When it is reconnected, it will receive the historical messages it needs to function.

Goals of this session

To demonstrate and make it easy to understand the value of Decentralised communications, particularly as they are implemented and provided by Matrix
