> The possibility to grow local communities and economies, eliminating

> Our concern about freedom in media is serious, the current urgency

>

> actions, to weave its faith in harmony.
>
> Our plan is to keep on developing more on-site and on-line public
> space for discussion, following a **decentralised pattern** that
> grants access to most people on our planet. We created tools for
> independent media, to multiply the voices in protection of common

>
> We are aware of the limits of the present implementation of democracy:

>
> The solution we propose is simple: maximise the possibilities to

> possible, free the airwaves, let communication flow in its
> multiplicity, avoid any mono-directional use of it, give everyone the
> possibility to run a radio or TV station for it's own digital and
> physical neighbours, following an organic pattern that will modularise
> the sharing of sense and let ideas propagate in a horizontal, non
> hierarchical way.
>
> If these media architectures will be linked with education models that

>
> On the other hand, notions are rapidly becoming universally available.
> *Heuristic*, *maieutic* and *infrastructure* functions provided by

> communities **horizontally** sharing methods, experiences, working
> implementations, on distributed and versioned R&D platforms.
>
> As components can be combined and redistributed, copied and
> modified[10] students learn a knowledge that is durable, free from
> "*intellectual properties*" restricting their rights to produce and
> redistribute creations. This situation will provide an advantage for
> new generations, as it does for developing countries.
>
> Media hubs and hacker spaces constitute a great potential to activate
> cultural growth, fulfilling an educational role that is progressively
> lacking in higher schools and universities.
>
> In 1998 it was the first edition of the hackmeeting[11] in Firenze
> when its assembly launched the idea of *independent universities of
> hacking*, spawning numerous hacklabs across the networked cities, with
> annual meetings that have been taking place until today in various
> places in the south of Europe. We believe the results of these

> * Consolidation
>
> *Inverno. Come un seme il mio animo ha bisogno del lavoro nascosto
> di questa stagione.* (Giuseppe Ungaretti, 1888-1970)
>
> If you read until here and you think our plans deserve support, then
> you should know we are really struggling for better quality, which in
> our vision we didn't yet fully reached. That's what we call
> consolidation here.
>
> As our activity mostly focuses on free and open source software
> development, we have to admit we are not yet there in satisfying all
> the needs of the various communities relying on them.
>
> For example the on-line radio streaming software MuSE[12], being
> developed since 8 years now to provide an user friendly tool for
> community on-line radio streaming, being used by various radios
> worldwide, is not yet fully developed to the point it should and we
> have an hard time in keeping the pace with updating it.
>
> Another example is the popular GNU/Linux multimedia liveCD
> dyne:bolic[13] developed since 2001 which has now reached version
> 2.5.2 released last winter: it focuses on several important issues as
> supporting old hardware, implementing privacy for users, offering
> media production tools and providing all development tools on its
> single liveCD. We won't hide we are experiencing major problems in
> keeping the project alive, lacking funds to involve more developers
> for such a huge effort. In fact since more recent "phylantropic"
> startups (that, considering the nature of their funding, aren't
> grassroot at all) obscured our long-standing grassroot development we
> have been deprived of the media attention that is also necessary to
> gather support: this all follows the logic of the big fish eating the
> smaller fishes, killing variety even in the open source context.
>
> Yet another example is the FreeJ vision mixer software[14] developed
> since 2002, implementing an open platform for producing and
> broadcasting audio/video online in a completely open way, also relying
> on development done by the xiph.org foundation[15]. With FreeJ we hope
> to rehabilitate the vast knowledge about the javascript language with
> a tool that let it be used for video production, as a 100% free
> alternative to Flash and other recent commercial startups. The horizon
> for this project is very promising, as finally Ogg/Vorbis/Theora
> support is being natively integrated in Mozilla Firefox[16], and we
> are actively seeking funding support for a short term development
> sprint, which never really arrives.
>
> In economic terms all these projects have been developed with very
> little support so far and actually don't need much to go on, still
> proper expertise is needed and that in most cases requires a budget to
> keep people committed on a medium or long term.
>
> What we are seeking for  our consolidation is to develop a publication
> platform that let us modestly merchandise these products, keeping them
> still  free and  available  online, plus  eventually some  benefactors
> trusting  our  work and  investing  their  phylantropic instincts  the
> visions   hereby  described.    Anyway,   any  suggestions   regarding
> consolidations are very  welcome and of course, as  a good old Yiddish
> proverb says, a penny is a lot  of money--if you haven't  got a penny.

> We are planning (and realizing already) a decentralised structure of
> on-line and on-site facilities to be independently shared among us.
>
> On site we successfully link to squats and liminal practices among our

>
> On line we are yet more powerful, having established a redundant

>
> As we have composed a comprehensive cartography of such efforts you

> So far we are emerging two locations: the poetry hacklab[17] in

> Thanks for reading until here, in case we sparked some interest in you
> with this document, then finally let us point out some practical ways
> to get involved and collaborate with us.
>
> Being still a young phase of our evolution we need to carefully
> economise participation in our development, so we are looking for
> talented hackers wishing to contribute to software development, as
> well independent communities wanting to join our network and amplify
> our practices and dreams across the world.
>
> As we will hopefully get some funding (and this phase basically opens
> our network to such opportunities) we won't neglect to support your
> participation with money. In fact we plan to pay out fees for specific
> development tasks as the ones described in the Consolidation chapter,
> which will be progressively detailed on our websites.
>
> We also plan to open up residencies and remote stage programs, in
> collaboration with educational institutions recognising our efforts
> and the involvement of their students in them.

> Please     get     in    touch     then!      from    this     webpage
> http://dyne.org/hackers_contact.php and specifying your
> email address,
> we will reply and plan our future collaboration.
