"Courses in Social Ecology

The Institute for Social Ecology (ISE), located amid central
Vermont's rolling mountains, has been a center for education
and action working with the ideas of social ecology since the
1970s. The ISE and its programs also serve as a forum for
serious dialog among ecological, social justice, and
anti-capitalist activists, as a laboratory for new ecological
technologies, and as a resource for community groups around
the world. For the spring and summer of 2003, the ISE is
again offering its widely acclaimed programs.

Born of Desertion: Singularity, Collectivity, Revolution

March 20-22 at the University of Florida, Gainesville


Keynote Speakers: Michael Hardt and Kristin Ross

Where is the Left now? How do we materialize collective
formations, and enact a justice in their name? How do we do this
at a moment when the world market and the right-wing body politic,
prodigiously engineering and rewriting the global imaginary, have
appeared as the frightening answer to certain strains of a
communal impulse so crucial to the Left?

exploring the multitudes of technology, society, arts, activism and culture ::
Co-presented by Select Media and the Museum of Contemporary Art


For its second annual

of economies) and Singularity (the adaptation of man to
machine), as seen, created, and debated by programmers,
artists, scientists, activists and critical thinkers.
The five-day festival, Technotopia vs. Technopacalypse,
brings together emerging and leading practitioners employing
or responding to the latest advancements in virtual reality,
robotics, biotech, and other such technology defining
our time. The roster featured in concerts, films, installation
labs, workshops, and panel discussions consists of proponents
as well as critics of the latest developments.

Although I think that activist groups using yahoo for this sort of thing is a bit insane (yahoo sells info on list members to anyone) I decided to post this anyway-- U.F.

daybrea anarchist collective writes "Write for Daybreak! #4!

Tentative Deadline: Jan 15 2003

Daybreak! is a completely volunteer-run midwestern anarchist newspaper. In order for us to keep publishing we need for you to provide articles and art that people want to look at. We've chosen not to be just another newspaper filled with theoretical gobbley-gook or radical posturing, but one that provides inspiring and useful news and information to people both in and outside radical communities. Send us local and international news, art, information, DIY, Reviews, Letters, art, comics, exciting history, fun stuff etc! Send us SOMETHING, if you don't who will?

This issue is partly focused on the twin evils of work and school (though lots of other things will be included). We're looking particularly for short (paragraph) accounts of ways that people have resisted, sabotaged, or fucked with their work or school for our column, When Wage Slaves Attack.

We prefer the articles be sent to our email with a contact address or number, and only edit for length and with writers approval. On a side note distributors in infoshops or distros in the US should get ahold of us to get copies of the next issue, and we highly suggest individual Midwesterners to get their shit together and hand them out to your friends and neighbors.

Daybreak PO Box 14007 MINNEAPOLIS MN 55404

"NewZoid is a countercultural artwork that automatically fabricates up-to-the-minute news headlines. It is a great source of relaxation and inspiration for those engaged, in one way or another, in the endless task of making the world a better place.

NewZoid has been the world's leading source of false news information since April, 2001. It proudly claims to produce more falsehood than all governments, corporations, academic institutions and artistic enterprises put together.
