I was active at a hackerspace. I never managed to participate. I felt always the assistant... In a project, I had to document their work but without being explained what it was about. Can you help me?? Why? It was not a collaborative process.

They were never engaging me. They wanted to collaborate with artists... but they are not artists, so they wanted me to be a mediator with the artist...

It is difficult, the role of the assistant and mediator. I was perceived as a woman. Oh wow, you know how to do this! In a culture of nerds, I was alone.
