Anarsistanbul Calls Your Imagination To Aaction
Have you ever thought bombs dropping on your head while you are sitting at home peacefully? Or the soldiers experimenting the latest military technology on you while you are walking in the street?

Massacres like these happen every day, every moment, every where in the world. And the main actors of these massacres are meeting in Istanbul. The army of capitalism’s global dominance projects, NATO, global torturers and murderers will be in Istanbul on the 28-29th of June. They will gather to prepare a scenario of exploitation, massacre, humiliation, migration and ecological destruction. In the name of “war against terrorism”, they will try to spread their bloody plans all around our region and seize our lives.

We shall not let the torturer murderers' usurpation scenarios towards our region which they are planning to declare in Istanbul. They weren’t welcomed in Iraq, let’s show them they will not be welcomed in Istanbul too. Let’s show them that our region will be not the home of military bases of NATO but the home of the struggle of bread, justice and freedom!

Camp Theme: Eleusinian Mysteries

 

For over a thousand years, the ancient mysteries of Demeter and Persephone were practiced in the Greek city of Eleusis. The Eleusinian Mysteries were once considered so potent, that the fate of the entire world depended on them. We will spend a week in the Berkshires of New York exploring these ancient mysteries and how they inter-relate with our lives, the state of the world and the cycles of nature.

Reclaim the Commons

San Francisco, June 3-9, 2004

Initially formed to oppose Bio2004, RECLAIM THE COMMONS has quickly grown from a single mobilization into a movement. Within this movement, we want to teach and demonstrate sustainable, life-affirming alternatives to biotechnology and corporate power in general: organic food, community gardens, water reclamation, urban transformation, a gift economy, and so much more. We do this hoping to inform, enrage, and inspire, as we spread the skills and tools we need to bring our visions to fruition.

System-77 Civil Counter-Reconnaissance

S-77CCR

S-77CCR is a tactical urban counter-surveillance systems for ground controlled UAV's (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) and airborne drones to monitor public space.


The violence of classical theatres of battle is overshadowed by the rise of low intensity conflicts in highly developed societies of capitalist democracies. The increasing privatization of security in this all-pervading omni directional new style of confrontation asks for solutions towards transparency and a balance of power.


To allow for equilibrium of skills in surveillance and a broad education of the public in control technologies, access to a technology for the people seems necessary.
