Against the Panopticon, Strategies for Resisting Computer Surveillance: 
This workshop covers the basics of computer security from a hands-on perspective, including using encrypted e-mail with public key encryption (GPG),  
hiding your IP address (Tor), and using beginning to use free software such as GNU/Linux. Very basic introduction to Internet and Web architecture will  
also be given, as well as general guidance for radicals producing media and communications in this era of surveillance. No previous expertise with  
computers assumed, so do come!
Talking About Total Freedom: 
Multi media poetical lecture for the arising of a Cosmo-Political Consciousness. Philosophical backround, thoughts, visions and struggle plans for the  
liberation of all humanity from Ignorance, Suffering and Exploitation.

15 h: Radioworkshop

Collectivity Through Insurrection: 
This discussion will investigate the central political question of radical autonomous and anarchists - how do we go beyond ourselves to create  
political agency? How can we distinguish our radical politics from the increasing social nature of capitalist politics, where collaboration and  
decentralization are encouraged? In the face of global ecological crisis, how can we create collective politics without falling into either the  
politics of subcultural identity, or any version of totalitarian and eco-fascist politics?


friday 1st of june

Re-igniting an Anarchist Network between North America and Europe: 
This is an open discussion about the current relatively poor state of communication between North American and European autonomous and anarchist  
revolutionaries. During the heyday of the "anti-globalization" movement in the USA, autonomists anarchists were at the forefront of the global struggle  
against capitalism, but the movement in the USA lost its momentum after Sept. 11th. Recently, at the Zapatista>Encuentro, anarchists from across  
Mexico, including anarchists involved with APPO in Oaxaca, declared their desire for a network for solidarity, mutual aid, and direct action. Advice  
from European comrades is sorely needed.
