>World-Information.Org is a trans-national cultural intelligence provider: 
>a collaborative effort of cultural workers, artists, scientists and
>technicians. 
>
>Cultural intelligence gathers, evaluates and processes meta-information:
>information
>about the foundations of Information Society. This includes clear analysis
>and
>investigation of its societal, cultural, economic and political potentials
>and dangers. 
>
>Cultural intelligence acts as a balance to traditional military or economic
>intelligence
>services that gather information to increase control, and serves the public
>interest
>through citizen's empowerment and independence. As accurate information is
>essential to optimal decisions, cultural intelligence services compensate
>the
>public's lack of meta-information as socio-political and cultural foundation
>for
>decision-making. 
>
>To meet the public's need for high quality and accessible cultural
>information and
>content, cultural intelligence provides information on developments and
>probable
>courses of action in the infosphere. In the tradition of the Enlightenment,
>cultural
>intelligence is an advocate of citizen's rights of cultural freedom, freedom
>of opinion
>and expression, communication and privacy. 
>
>The services provided are designed to foster and protect the public sphere
>and
>discourse as well as the variety and richness of cultural expressions in a
>society
>increasingly determined by information and communication technologies. 
>
>By observing and analyzing enlightening cultural, socio-political,
>technological and
>economical trends, culture intelligence counters indoctrination and
>propaganda.

>"SIMPLE SECURITY FOR COMPLEX NETWORKS"
>Implementing Secure TCP/IP Networks with IPSEC & Linux FreeS/WAN 
>
>Hugh Daniel 
>The Linux FreeS/WAN Project 
>hugh@road.toad.com
>www.freeswan.org
>
>The tutorial will introduce various secure data-transmission technologies
>and their implementation. IPSEC and related protocols provide a basis for
>secure TCP/IP based networking and VPN's from the very simple to the
>mind-bogglingly complex. Introducing IPSEC, IKE, DNS Secure and related
>technology's both describing how they are different from current networking
>practice and what systems they do (and don't) secure. We will then move on
>to describing how to design, setup, debug and monitor such systems on the
>'wild' Internet based on real world examples from the Linux FreeS/WAN
>Project implementation of IPSEC/IKE and possible visions of future usage in
>systems like Insular Technologies and similar. The session will last
>approximately 4 hours and will be very labor intensive. The main aim of this
>presentation is the advocacy of secure internet protocol usage as the sole
>future standard of the matrix communication. 
>Presented by Projekt Atol-PACT SYSTEMS and World-Information.Org.

>ISSUES" 
>Keywords: satellite design, launch issues, space policy, independent
>communications
>
>Marko Peljhan
>Projekt Atol
>http://makrolab.ljudmila.org
>
>This presentation will look into the historical and political roots of
>satellite development, design, launch and policy issues. An overview from
>the first satellite designs and their purposes to their most advanced
>contemporary counterparts will be accompanied with visual materials and
>extensive documentation. After that specific attention will be given to
>pico, nano and micro satellite design, focusing on already finished and
>successful projects and possible new solutions. A sample process system will
>be presented and a plan for the system implementation and design will be
>unveiled. After this, launch issues will be discussed, with current and
>future world's launch capabilities and policies presented. Focus will be
>given to conversion launchers and new products on the market. As the last
>point, satellite conversion and re-use projects will be discussed, focusing
>on the Iridium case. At the end, the participants will be encouraged to work
>in a workshop form to produce a JFDILD (joint finance design implementation
>and launch document).

>"SATELLITE TRACKING & RECEPTION: POLICY, PRACTICE, HISTORY"
>Keywords: monitoring, tracking interception, communications policy,
>military space, civilian space, broadcasting
>
>Marko Peljhan
>Projekt Atol
>http://makrolab.ljudmila.org
>
>
>This presentation will look into the current DIY capabilities of satellite
>interception and tracking technologies and their implementations. With
>historical material, from the first Sputnik, to the Iridium constellation
>and the current Spy-Sats, the different tracking and observation techniques
>will be discussed case by case and their signals and visual signatures
>presented where possible. Special attention will be given to little known
>Soviet and Russian projects. Relevant software and hardware combinations for
>the purpose will be presented, together with decoding software for telemetry
>and sample digital signal processing, tracking software solutions and
>tracking hardware combinations. Further the presentation will focus on the
>use of tracking for practical communication purposes in the amateur field.
>After this, geo-stationary earth orbit satellite interception and reception
>issues will be presented, together with the known current world
>constellation. Sample material of investigative work in the field will be
>shown, ending with the projection of Brian Springer's award winning SPIN
>documentary. Presented by Projekt Atol-PACT SYSTEMS and
>World-Information.Org.
