Re: [Nettime-nl] Soundtransit.nl presents sounds from Lebanon [signed]

cool
and streamtime is proud to publish it at
http://streamtime.org

"People hide behind references and theories, they are also 
increasingly inclined, in our ever expanding open social order, to 
hide behind forwarding information; not taking a position one way or 
the other, just forwarding. In a world that favors forwarding 
information over personal positions, critical engagement will 
continue to wane and ultimately vanish, not just on listservs and 
blogs, but everywhere. These are the contradictions and ambiguities 
of living in a social order in which life is controlled through its 
very openness."  (Kenneth Wirbin)

I mean

You know that Beiroeth is burning
I know that most of us are busy

Yet, I wonder who of us is busy with Beirouth?

streamtime.org is posting on its metablog
that's all we can do

we are invited to join ISEA remotely
but what use is that, without direct particpation
from Lebanon and Israel?

just wondering...
