Are not we doing that i.e. "self organizing", already?
One of the problems is to have distant houses and buildings on route
spread across the globe to be visited in a free and open way and to be
able to maintain these places of gathering with a minimum "personal"
dependencies on financial and/ or tax burdens
One of these places is "Art Residency Walkenried, Germany" see:

I wonder if our money is not better spent organizing a
counter-conference that does not discriminate based on ability to pay.
Perhaps we would then be able to have a real "international symposium
on electronic art".
Electronic art has always been the bastard child of corporate
sponsorship -- sometimes disguised through the dodgy mediation of
academic prestige. Yet electronic art is one of the most important set
of lenses/vehicles that we have for the perception of global systems.
