Subject: 30/5 geneva: wipe out IOM, WTO and WIPO
30/5 geneva: wipe out IOM, WTO and WIPO
http://www.noborder.org
Call for a demonstration on May 30th in Geneva - Start: 11.A.M. near the
railway station (watch out for more infos)
20.May.03 - In the days preceding the mass protests of June 1st against the G8,
we hope thousands of people will converge in the region in order to take part
in the camps, conferences, workshops and help prepare the large demonstration
and mass civil disobedience of June 1st.
In the framework of these activities we call for a demonstration in
the "institutional quarter" of Geneva on Friday May 30th. Our intention is to
politically express our fundamental criticism of capitalist development and our
clear rejection of more and more transnational instruments of exploitation,
control and exclusion.
Freedom of movement is our demand when we gather in front of the International
Organisation for Migration (IOM), an intergovernmental institution, which
claims the leadership in socalled "global migration managment", which means to
combine programmes of deportation and internment of migrants, the destruction
of flightroutes and recruitment-projects for cheap labourforces.
At the World Trade Organisation (WTO), we will "reject the idea that so
called "free" trade creates employment and increases welfare, and the
assumption that it can contribute to the alleviation of poverty. But we will
also very clearly
reject the alternative of a stronger national capitalism and authoritarian
state to take over central control from corporations. Our struggles aim at
taking back control of the means of production from the hands of both
transnational and national capital, in order to create free, sustainable and
community-controlled livelihoods, with equal rights and opportunities for women
and men, based on solidarity and people's needs and not on exploitation and
greed."
Freedom of communication will be our slogan as we'll face the World
Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO). What is recently known
as "information society" appears as a wave of expansionist intellectual
property laws. Companies are able to exercise biopolitical control that takes
to new extremes the tendency of liberating capital by restricting individual
and collective freedom and rights - even the right to life itself.
IOM, WTO and WIPO symbolize three central pillars of global governance and the
three combined demonstrations in front of their respective headquarters will
highlight this context.
We refuse and reject both capitalist exploitation and racist exclusion, border
managment and digital rights managment, restrictions of freedom of movement and
constraints of the freedom of communication. This demonstration will be a
further step to strengthen an interconnected struggle of anticapitalist and
anti-racist movements, of net activists and free access campaigns to shape a
global movement of movements.
The character of the demonstration will be selfdetermined in its contents, but
peaceful in its running. We will be coloured and noisy, but we will avoid any
confrontations with the police. We will accuse the transnational agencies and
maintain our daily and longterm struggle against them. But we will not occupy
or´attack their barrickaded buildings. Two days before the beginning of the G8
summit and the announced mass protests we do not want to give the police a
pretext to start a dynamic of repression and play their logic of war.
In the evening before the demonstration, on Thursday May 29th, there will be a
public information event and debate about our approach and the topics
mentioned. It will take place in L'Usine, place des volontaires, Geneva.
- - with Frank Düvell from the anti-racists office in Bremen, related to the
noborder network, about the global migration-regime;
- - hopefully with somebody from anti-wto-struggles...;
- - with Alan Toner from Autonomedia about the demand for freedom of
communication.
L'usine will be the indymedia center during the days of protest and will offer
a livestreaming of this event in the camps in Annemasse and out to the world.
In addition to that a new video film about the role and function of the IOM
will be presented in the camps and in other public spaces in Geneva.

apple users, please note: send your texts to office@kanonmedia.com & we do
the onlining for you. SAVE / SAFE is designed for PC / IE 6.0 only.
theme & concept:
* The cultural container representing itself to society today and going to
reign the 21st century ... is characterized by substitutional relations
based on the central involvement with information technology, pursued from
a position of pseudo-autism ... With the decay of inter-personal culture
and the expansion of IT-controlled substitutes of inter-relation only one
mass container is left for and generally accepted by a borderlining
majority: the unavoidable search for the ego and for techniques allowing
the construction of identity. *
* J. Erik Mertz, in: Borderline - weder tot noch lebendig, 2000
In January 2003, SAVE / SAFE started from a research of human
states-of-being related to the impact of New Technologies on the perception
and self-consciousness of individual existence. Using the atmosphaeric
background of a journey to Oceania - a context of highly social municipal
communities still existing on many of the geographically isolated
Polynesian islands and a westernized New Zealand having integrated all
attitudes of 'modern' life - SAVE / SAFE compares Anna's individual
experience to results of the scientific research of philosophy, psychology,
ethics, sociology and new media theory.
Since then, a contemporary variety of aspects on the theme have been added
by artists / authors from different countries, thus turning the SAVE / SAFE
automat more and more into what it intends to be - a mirror - through a
spectrum of different views the structure of the reading machine SAVE /
SAFE turns into a mirror of contemporary conditioning, thus provoking the
user to consciously read without reading, understand without analyzing,
experience without touching.

Subject: ZEROGLAB_ÜBERGROUND_CALL_FOR_SACKED_NEW_MEDIA_CURATORS
[ZEROGLAB ÜBERGROUND] CALL FOR SACKED NEW MEDIA CURATORS
(we crosspost with no regret)
überground would like to invite all sacked media curators to curate/organize
programs in the city-state überground.
hereby we would like to invite steve dietz who lost his position at the
walker art center to continue his program in the rotterdam überground.
we believe that the recent wave of dropping new media programs at leading
cultural institutions all around the world, and here in rotterdam as well,
or cutting their budgets, seriously endangers the positive achievements, the
networked cultural community has been made in the past years. we want to
canalize this positive energy that has been accumulated by this community.
we want to take our responsibility. we want to preserve and prolong this
impact on our global and local culture and and develop to new levels.
we are in an economic, and not in a cultural recession.
we don't believe in the modernist dogma that less is more.
less = less
more = more
enough = enough
überground has no budget to cut.
überground is a new independent art space, city-state and transcultural
playground for new media in rotterdam, open for the public on a regular base
for shows and salon events. überground events deal with new media,
architecture and design, experimental art, theory, performance, music,
social issues, things on or over the edge.
überground algorithm:
control of position = movement
control of movement = irritability (simple reflex)
control of irritability = (complex) reflex
control of reflex = associating (conditional reflex)
control of associating = human thinking
control of human thinking = culture
überground is organized by zeroglab, an independent artlab in rotterdam.
zeroglab is in an evolving process of exchange with initiatives of
individuals and institutions, based on mutual sympathy.

Story Streams is a networked digital film, created in real-time by
collaborating filmmakers around the world. Story Streams weaves digital
networked technologies with the ancient tradition of oral storytelling to
create a new cinematic genre: real-time cinema. Working from a common
narrative, each filmmaker created his or her own version of the story and
then uploaded the files to a centralized artist who mixed the streams of the
story together in real-time to create yet another version of the narrative.
Story Streams was first presented at the Streaming Cinema media festival in
Philadelphia in February, 2003. The narrative we used was based on the
classic hero¹s journey: Our hero/heroine sets off on a short errand in the
city. There he encounters 2 or 3 perils or challenges. With the help of an
enchanted person, the hero/heroine reaches deep within himself and finds the
strength and resourcefulness to face down the perils. You could also say
that what he learns about his inner self helps him conquer the perils.
Having faced down the challenges the hero/heroine leaves the enchanted area
and finds him/herself back on the original road he was traveling on ----
only much further along the path. A few steps more, and he reaches the end
of his journey. This is a classical mythological frame such as the one
employed in Ulysses. The narrative was chosen because we wanted it to be
easily recognizable to the audience.
