| Re: <nettime> 20 years of Indymedia: Where are we now ?! |
hi pod! long time no see, hi ingrid, tatiana from abya yala :) as for a long time user and educator on free technologies for creative media production I was a bit skeptical on the article - we dont need to create one more leftist tool, but re-ocuppy with purpose and love all collective maintained tools - perhaps more influenced by intersectional poltics (I am reading Ocalan :) but the networkS are alive, dormant because NOT dispersed and very much re-creating itself all the time. free philosophy and ethics becomes just more urgent then ever! As Krenak an indigenous leader in brazil says we have been using "colored parachutes" in this fall "being able to maintain our subjectivities, our visions, our poetics about existence". we are in shock with the fire but its from the ashes that we create! here a recent ongoing work from the brazilian cyberfeminists https://midiatatica.desarquivo.org/ tactical archives from the last decade by collective perspectives. best for all! t Em 2019-09-10 08:19, podinski escreveu: > Hi Ingrid et al, > > hmm, a little shocked that so few want to discuss the indymedia > platform topic... and what it means for today's struggles... > but na ja, so it goes in the web flood of efficiently cubicled > (un-)solidarities... > > On 9/7/19 10:05 AM, Hoofd, I.M.
