Can Digital Culture ( in a Hyper-Krapitalist world ) be sustainable?!!… Seems like a false nerd dichotomy for those who have realized way too late that we went down the wrong path, and yet still wishing there are ways to repair the damage, without fully unpacking all the baggage and exploitations of the technotopian ruse.
Well, let’s give them Some credit for trying to save whatever’s left of the living … and/or the next wave of start-up culture ;) …. Or perhaps just nailing down the dead horse of Globalized Miscommunications Inc …
In any case, some good-intentioned and very sharp people can probably be found in the mix !

But alas, there are green elves and ninjas to be found everywhere… and actions and organizing that needs to happen…

Stay tune for more …
Oh and Btw…
< Dec. 27-30 > Plans are being made for 35c3 – the 35th Chaos Congress – the 2nd year at the new Leipzig Messe Halle location…
And we have a strange idea …
We would like to create a “B-side” event to gather people who will NOT be attending … and watch the live streams together. This could be in Btropolis, Leipzig, Hamburg… or ?? … suggestions welcome ! Invitations welcome ! A host space needed !
We imagine a scenario somewhat like Mystery Science 3000… watching and trolling and psycho-media analyzing… But also in a serious vein, we would like to discuss with people who are NOT necessarily of the technotopian persuasions ( and industries ) to discuss what they think about these obtuse digital culture adepts scheming better tech once again in 2018 for all our futures.
Perhaps even documenting these outsiders, maybe in some anonymous or costumed form, and as a feedback letter to those who have been our digital infrastructure ( and/ or “structural adjustment” ) guides through… all of Dante’s Infernal Machines…
…
Suggestions and collaborators welcome !!
