Avid for Open! My name is Connor Benedict. I'm a project manager and community organizer with a background in contemporary art and cultural heritage - though i'm educated as a Kaospilot.

I've worked in open access to cultural heritage as a Project Coordinator at Creative Commons, from 2021-24.

In the wiki-world I've presented at

• Wikimania in 2024 (Open Space for Wikimedians in Residence)(Building Alliances for pro-open Legislative Reform)(Towards a Recommendation on Open Cultural Heritage)
• AI Sauna in 2024
• GLAMWiki Conference in 2023 (Open Culture on Wikipedia)(Towards a Recommendation on Open Culture - What, When, How?)
• Wikimania 2023 (Building an Initiative for a UNESCO Recommendation on Open Culture)

In 2025 I organized GLAM Wiki in Lisbon together with Wikimedia Portugal and Wiki Editoras Lx.

I'm a fan of print media, especially zines and self published books about art. I've worked on museum catalogs and various other publications. Check out more about me on my website www.seehbe.com
