===== About me =====
I'm an transdisciplinary commoner working in the few fields where my sense is that I have most to uniquely contribute.

Having lived in a shared student house, a co-housing community for 7 years, and now since 2020 in a micro-community of four older adults, I have something to say about [[intc:intentional communities]] and [[coho:cohousing]]. I've also been a keen user of and advocate for [[foss:Open Source]] software.

For many years I've been a contributor to [[wiks:wikis]]; and I have [[https://wiki.simongrant.org/|my own (DokuWiki) wiki]]. I've written [[https://wiki.simongrant.org/doku.php/t:knowledge_commons|a lot about knowledge commons]]. This here wiki is a great example of what I see as a knowledge commons, and I'm proud to be one of the core designers of and contributors to it.

===== Involvement with Growing the Commons =====

I'm one of the pioneering commoners setting up this wiki. [[user:Katja]] and I have used our experience with wikis and particularly DokuWiki to lead the design and structure of this wiki.
I have a degree in Physics and Philosophy, so I've signed up as one of the curators for the [[phil:Philosophy]] page.
Recently, I've been working on the [[doc:start|documentation]],
and I'm helping to look for commoner curators for various topics, particularly for topics in the groups:

  * [[gt:Digital]] & media
  * [[gt:Learning]] & personal development

===== My organisations =====

I have grown out of paid work ;-) so I have no formal affiliations.
You can see my present and many past connections on [my home page](https://www.simongrant.org/).

I also have user pages at

* [P2P Foundation wiki](https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/User:Asimong)
* [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Asimong)
