WHO ARE WE?
Dissatisfied with what we see as the one-sided reports produced by the
mainstream media, several organisations and persons have set up an
alternative: Organic Chaos Network. With this non-profit and copyleft
network we intend to report, spread and exchange information on the
undercurrents in society, and show what the mainstream media prefer not to
broadcast.

OUR AIMS


Throughout the world people, groups and organisations videotape actions and
campaigns around issues such as environmental protection, social justice,
human rights, animal rights, squatting and anti-fascism. The idea of this
video network is to link up with existing and create new initiatives to
broaden the opportunity for (subversive) organisations and activists to
report on their activities in their own words and images. To enable a free
and widespread flow of information, which is one of our main aims, we want
to overcome barriers such as money by working on a voluntarily basis.

“United We Stand Against War: Voices for Peace and Justice”

New Video Documentary Release From Iconmedia

Austin, TX -- Iconmedia has produced a new video called “United We Stand
Against War: Voices for Peace and Justice” which documents a series of
national demonstrations and events in Washington, DC between April 19 and
22, 2002.


Nearly 100 voices are represented in the one-hour program, which covers the
April 19 Global Intifada Conference, the April 20 national anti-war march
and rally, the April 21 and 22 Colombia Mobilization festival and civil
disobedience action, and the April 22 demonstration against U.S. support for
Israel.

A new web site on the history of Southern California anarchism has been posted.
It's still in progess. anarchy

Louis Lingg writes "cryptome.org has posted a translation of Some thoughts on the idea of 'hacker culture' by Patrice Riemens, originally published in the French journal Multitudes.

An excerpt: '...the points of convergence between the activities of hackers and those of (political) activists are many, and they increase by the day. It is becoming more and more
evident that both groups face the same threats, and the same adversaries. As expert technological knowledge - especially of ITC - that sits outside the formally structured (and
shielded) domains of corporate or political power gets evermore vilified in the shape of '(cyber-)terrorist' fantasies, paranoia, and finally, repression, while at the same time this very
expertise is increasingly being mastered and put to use by the enemies of the neo-liberal 'One Idea System', stronger, if circumstantial, links are being welded between hackers
and activists.'"

http://www.ecocam.com/politics/

This is page with links to online political articles. For now there are only two (some more in the Dutch language version). A call for political thinking in the Movement, and comments on the assassination of Pim Fortuyn, the populist ultra-rightwing leader in Holland."
