Timothy McKeon

From New York to Chengdu, Vancouver to Berlin, Timothy has spent his life in pursuit of languages. After working as a doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine for ten years, his recent return to translation work has been a homecoming back to his passion for the subtleties of language and nuances of communication. Inspired by language revitalization movements, Timothy is dedicated to the spreading and sharing of information, using Guerilla Translation’s Open Cooperative Governance Model to inspire other grassroots organizations to self-mobilize. Timothy also volunteers with Wikitongues and is a member of the International Association of Hyperpolyglots.

DisCOS

Tales of a DisCO

DisCOs are a commons-oriented, feminist, cooperative way for people to work together. A set of ideals and criteria for ensuring that patterns of oppression and violence that permeate our society are not replicated within intentional, cooperative spaces. DisCOs systematize fairness and the recognition of care work.
