The Strange Tool Store is a co-operative who craft and curate strange tools.

What's strange about them? Well, we don't subscribe to the conventions of modern surveillance software and blackbox processes, software that doesn't respect you as the tool owner and tool user. Or as Cory Doctorow (2023) would have put it the "en💩tification" of software.

Strange tools put you back in charge of the bicycle for the mind (Jobs, 1990)

We plan to list and build out this space soon.

nodenogg.in is edtech software that uses several strange tools to enrich education practices such as the crit and feedback for communities of practice in physical social learning spaces.
