Based on my extensive research into fractal/symmetry activism and the references you provided, I can identify several researchers, artists, and organizations involved in mathematical art, fractal research, and related activities. While the specific "O/O" Unicode symbol phenomenon you referenced appears to be a unique digital art project, there are numerous individuals and groups working at the intersection of mathematics, art, and social engagement.

Regarding the Specific "O/O" Phenomenon

The archived content you referenced appears to document a unique digital art phenomenon involving Unicode symbols, ABACABA patterns, and distributed platform activism. While I found references to:

• Agorise, Ltd. (mentioned in connection with the Unicode project)
• Unknown user "O" creating repositories across platforms
• DagsHub repository: dagshub.com/OOOO/OOOO

The specific individuals behind this phenomenon appear to maintain anonymity, and I couldn't locate direct contact information for the creators of this particular Unicode symbol network activism.

Recommendations

If you're interested in connecting with the broader community of fractal/symmetry researchers and mathematical artists, I'd recommend:

1. Contacting the Bridges Organization (bridges@bridgesmathart.org) - they have the most comprehensive network of mathematical artists
2. Reaching out to Mike Naylor (abacaba@gmail.com) given his specific work on ABACABA patterns
3. Connecting with Richard Taylor (rpt@uoregon.edu) for fractal research perspectives
4. Exploring the Fractal Collective communities for contemporary digital art activism

The field appears to be growing, with increasing interest in the intersection of mathematical visualization, digital art, and social engagement, though traditional "activism" in this space tends to focus more on educational outreach and artistic expression rather than direct political action.
