Hello ex-((i)) and ex-N5M3 folks, Just like to point out that https://www.indymedia.nl/ is still very much alive! I haven't been involved for many years now, but perhaps we could do something in Amsterdam, or barring that something in Berlin together with the Dutch ((i)) folks? I'd be happy to be involved somehow too!
Cheers, Ingrid. ________________________________ From: nettime-l-boun...@mail.kein.org <nettime-l-boun...@mail.kein.org> on behalf of podinski <podin...@mailbox.org> Sent: 06 September 2019 15:42 To: nettime-l@mail.kein.org <nettime-l@mail.kein.org> Subject: <nettime> 20 years of Indymedia: Where are we now ?! hello N-time, This November INDYMEDIA – (( i )) – will be 20 years old !! April Glaser writes a good short history of the pioneering network/platform/newsfeed … for Logic Magazine ( here ). But there’s probably many more things that need to be analyzed in the history of the Internet and digital culture to understand and assess whether “Another Network Is Possible“… and where + how tactical media can unite communities tomorrow… https://logicmag.io/bodies/another-network-is-possible/ ... XLterrestrials are working on an expanded post about ALL that… http://xlterrestrials.org/plog/?p=19424 excerpt from Part 1: Where are we now ? > ( that haunting + sad final-years-Bowie tune is playing back in our heads as we write… ) This is an extremely complicated discussion, and it will take more than a short essay to sort through all the angles and dilemmas we find ourselves soaking in with the cybernetic technodystopias + technospherical spectrum +/or rectal probes of the military/corporate communication industries, now oozing ubiquitous through all the tissues and orifices of human + social organization like electro-shock + doctrines + disruption therapies to cure our inherited already-anthropocene-driven madness… by accelerating it … like: Here take this, it’s another anthropo-scenic downloading spiral into Stephen-Pinker-esque "tech-n-progress” Inc. > ... On a tangent note, it would be nice to put on some Indy-inspired type tactical media event... perhaps in the Btropolis ( Berlin ) for this anniversary date... Any ((i)) and N5Minutes veterans wanna play with us on that ? get in touch ! There is already something planned in Houston hosted by IMC folks there ( at Rice U. ?) ... but nothing in the EU territories yet, as far as we know... and WHY Btropolis? One of its IMC sites is still active, and its more radical sibling offshoot, got the crackdown + kicked off the webz 2 years ago. ( Linksunten )... And there's been heated discussions here about WHAT'S NEXT !! ... liebegreetz ! podinski 0~~~~O-----o www.xlterrestrials.org/plog<http://www.xlterrestrials.org/plog> arts + praxis organisms o-----O~~~~~0 # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: http://mx.kein.org/mailman/listinfo/nettime-l # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nett...@kein.org # @nettime_bot tweets mail w/ sender unless #ANON is in Subject:
