"goals": "Research is increasingly reliant on a wide variety of skills ranging from data analysis, programming, and other contributor roles. Unfortunately, the current reward system in academia often fails to give credit for contributions beyond authorship. Recently, there has been work to move toward a system that both recognises the diversity of roles in a research group as well as reward openness and sharing in the sciences. On the technical side, the Mozilla Open Badge Infrastructure is a system to recognise expertise or demonstrate accomplishments without traditional means of recognition. In terms of taxonomy, Digital Science, the Wellcome Trust and others have developed a working taxonomy of research contributorship. A prototype is needed to put this in action. With the new Badges Pathways/Discovery, a way to better visualise the usefulness of badges not just in reward but career progression for researchers is now available. With ORCiD , we have another essential building block to integrate into this award mechanism.\n\nThe aim of a badges session would be to begin to craft badges using the above-mentioned taxonomy, to build Research Pathways using these badges, and to work with essential partners (Mozilla Badge Community and Science Lab, ORCiD, Digital Science, Center for Open Science, BMC, and PLoS) to map out an implementable prototype for integrating such badges into the journal article.",
"agenda": "The session would begin with a presentation on the badges—how they have been used thus far (case studies), their infrastructure, and how one might imagine them being used in research. Then we would split up into 3 working groups: a crafting station, a Pathways station, and a prototyping station. \n\n•\tBadges Crafting. Using the existing contributorship taxonomy, we would begin to craft/design actual badges. If we were using badges to recognise all activities in research science, what would they be? Before MozFest we could set up an Etherpad to get this going and solicit some community feedback via Twitter and blogs. \n•\tScience hack of Pathways. Let’s create researcher pathways. This would include developing use cases using the taxonomy and applying it to your own career as a researcher. \n•\tCodesprint for the contributorship badges journal workflow. There has already been some discussion between BMC and Mozilla Science Lab as to how this would integrate into the journal article via a “PaperBadger”, a third party site where authors of a paper would complete a matrix on contributorship and iterate until they all had agreed. The authors would then, in agreement as a collaboration, issue their own badges. This would integrate with the publisher site via API. This working group would depend on finding dev resource willing to create and host this third party site. Depending on resources, this group could further discuss the workflow/storyboards just described or it could actually get to work and begin building the site. Hopefully the latter!",

"goals": "This ongoing exhibit, part of the Art of the Web gallery, will be an economic and social experiment where people can sell their physical (or digital) art. For example, posters drawn with code by a drawbot. \n\nOnly people present at MozFest can buy and sell. \n\nMozFest Art Bazaar will be a really really free market. Bids can be made in-person or online. Currency is an open field -- dogecoin, gold, hugs, haircuts, whatever. Closing bids percolate to top of site so others can make an offer. Mixing ideas, goods, services in a physical space augmented with a web software layer.",
"agenda": "1. A certain area of the festival designated as the bazaar for people to meet and make the final decision to trade. I think the area should be in a central natural gathering place. \n2. A website that shows what people are offering to trade and the top bid. The details are still fuzzy. I don't want to build ebay, but don't think we have to.\n3. Projecting the closing bids and some random items on the wall to browse.",

"description": "This day-long session (join us at any time!) will connect the digital cultural heritage offered by Europeana to communities of designers, artists and curators who want to try using open cultural content, from data to pictures to sound, as an inspiration and as content in their own works. Come create your own openly-licensed pieces with us, to be shared on a digital gallery for all to re-use, and learn more about what open cultural heritage on the web can mean. Details about this day-long session and all you can make with us can be found here: http://redesignyourculture.tumblr.com/",
