Re: Barcelona: nationalism, municipalism?
Cheers to Catalunya! Hello friends, before any expecting concept please leave me remind the singular cloud in which the history of Catalunya sits. The one of self organization since a while. They think their country like a large and multiple soviets, bakouninists + kroprotkinists, a topos better than a country for dancing on the borders inside/outside and make masterpieces. They are hard workers and free humans thinking visionnary. But they were too the Durruti column. Even if we cannot state what happens to and from them nowaday that will play sense. Plus this: First They were not in a secession protocol but a retrocession of their autonomous status as a nation confederated with Spain they had recovered in 1978 as a reparation for their martyr and their confiscated autonomy by Franco, of which the last Aznar government thanks to the Rajoy pressure and the PP pressure had deprived them in 2008 (like Franco did it far long before). Wait and see and then we'll know more about us all. All is experimented in Catalunya. It is a peaceful laboratory. Country is not nationalism for them but their singular and exclusive work tool available to experiment. They need it but they need to have freedom so that they can create what they (and we) better appreciate. I trust them. Sorry for my english version.

Re: nottime: the end of nettime
Hello friends and comrades! Interesting thread... first I was threatened since reading told us that something beautiful could stop once again, like so much beautiful things lost nowadays. But I understood what and why Felix and Ted called us to think and discuss. I do not publish mostly time because I write hard and wrong into english but I read the posts, it is important to feel what the redactors resent and think in matter of analysis and as projects, in this chaotic moment. This free server list since so much year it is a chance. A chance so much universal and so much singular a track from the late XXth century. Mostly a chance such as criticical acts at the moment the social networks are not anymore our media. Please do not put it in the trash bin... Let it live if you can dear mods, and with us too. I pay tribute to Geert, Pit, Felix, and Ted.

Re: 'fuck europe!' then what?
Europe presents a fake into a new nation which does not really exist but a coopted oligarchy far from the direct democracy. And not to discuss on exclusion more on "security" which makes disappear the judiciary power. Such as discussing a good or bad entity reduced to Europe cannot appear to me as a relevant question for all, when Europe is not at all ours all. Please Europe let open the doors or leave us be in our traditonnal popular critical context. Europe is as well the contrary of "we the people" as the rcontrary of the res publica. Treaties are not constitutions founded by/on the rights of the people. Cheers.

2002-2012 Ten years after the electoral acclaim in France
2002-2012 Paul Voise, Minor Current Affair, Insecurity & Politics: ten years after the electoral acclaim in France (editorial) After a long silence of the publication over the the internet, here is www.criticalsecret.com #16. So, what’s new since podcasts and 3G phones ? At this point, the passe-partout of the digital world, in synchronicity with the urban society, is the open sesame of internet tablet devices : html5. The reason why this issue is digitally relevant to the html5 version of an hour long movie is so that it can be watched on any computer or tablet screen, without consideration for the browser used to watch it.* The subject of this current issue of criticalsecret is shedding a peculiar diachronic light on the renewal of the french presidential electoral campaign. - It finds itself at the crossroads of the European supranational orientation in a financial crisis that obliterates currencies. Thus, after the signing of the stability pact that forces national economies upon deserting economic growth, involving the ruin of societies to ensure the hegemony of financial markets. - April 2012 comes after the Lisbon treaty, a text that abused the consulted people over the European constitution and that, among other things, militarizes the police and binds Justice to the raison d’état. To fully understand the current french presidential electoral campaign, and the subversion of the civic consciousness by the opinion and particularly by the press since the last decade, one needs to go back to the infamous 2002 presidential campaign and the Paul Voise case. This episode inaugurated the end of the republican representation of the chief of state as elected through ballots. French citizens critical of the government, not having at their disposal blank votes which are deducted from the ballots obtained, (nor do they have proportional representation during legislative elections) for the most part abstained from voting altogether, with the remaining part casting a vote of defiance towards the socialist government and the outgoing president by voting for Jean-Marie Le Pen, particularly ironic, even comical and omnipresent in the medias at the time. He crystallized the vote of people frightened by the Paul Voise beating and house fire, widely publicized by the TV and radio during the first turn of the electoral campaign. The movie that deconstructs the 2002 elections point-by-point exists. It is entitled ‘Paul Voise, […]’ and is directed by Simon Guibert, Documentary Journalist and radio author, and Arthur Guibert, director, cinematographer and editor with Alexandre Heraud, investigative journalist, playing his own character. Throughout a 57 minute prospective story, this piece presents the conclusions of a two-year investigation and summarizes a deviance in the electoral communication around the notion of security that characterized the radical turn that brought democracy into an oligarchic autocracy in France. The movie, shot between 2002 and 2004 was edited in 2005, and then published in four parts on dailymotion.com in 2006. Criticalsecret published it in extenso for the first time exclusively on the web and tablets. It is now 2012. The country is mourning because of an event of blind murderous violence that interrupted the current electoral campaign, giving back its media omnipresence to the outgoing president and its government. A president who has himself been elected in 2007 in exceptional circumstances of mediatization of its autocratic character and way of life, glorifying the reign of money. Without any connection except in the timing, an isolated gunman, mass serial killer, caused seven deaths over three different days: in Toulouse, the murder of a soldier of West Indian origin, in Montauban three soldiers of North African origin, all belonging to the same paratrooper unit, the 17th, back from Afghanistan. Then several days later, again in Toulouse, at the entrance to a Jewish religious school, three school children and a rabbi. The young man, an unemployed mechanic, "allegedly" guilty, will never be investigated, tried or convicted, because he was shot down by the RAID, a special task force of the French national police. Then the revelations made by the highest official of the DCRI, French intelligence agency, imply that the man could have been a rogue agent, with whom he had had direct communication and a meeting - this would imply more than a security watch, according to the former head of the DST, the French security service agency. If Islamists recruit in prison, is it possible that so can the DCRI? No one has seen the survey of his arsenal, or his camera, after the attack, and everyone is wondering how his films all edited into one film and put to music could reach the offices of Al Jazeera in Paris after his death, when his mother, his brother and his sister-in-law had been arrested. Besides, no one will show this film. Once again it is a case of declarations made without any pro
