[Nettime-bold] announcement: a "user-driven" alternative



------------------------------

For Immediate Release <restlessculture.net/discourse>

http://www.restlessculture.net/discourse

------------------------------

<restlessculture.net/discourse> is an international network for critical
dialogue of issues that affect the global community.

*The focus & issues of the site will shift because it is a "user-driven",
collaborative media environment.*

In its conception this project is and will continue to be:

*a platform for creative, intellectual response and meditation.

*a "user-driven" alternative to the prescribed, sensational feeds of
accelerated mass media and governments which abandon thought in their haste
to implement the rhetoric of war for political, economic and/or religious
gain.

*a collective opposition to all forms of fundamentalism everywhere.

*a web-based initiative that questions patriotism, anti-Arabism, and all
forms of racism and indifference toward others in our precious and
increasingly inter-dependent global community.

*a collaborative media platform of informed responses to and careful
analysis of a world in crisis.

------------------------------

All content for this project is generated by users/collaborators to the site
and is slightly moderated sometimes by a small pool of editors and other
times by a user moderated voting system.  To take part in this collaborative
media environment go to <restlessculture.net/discourse> and click on the
link "Make a New Account."
