Hi LUG,

This is the shorter version of the Knowledge Lab call for contributions.
Martyn is helping out with a LTSP set up - and everyone else interested
in coming along, please feel more than welcome to do so! 

We can do with help, knowledge and company :)

cheers,

HACK THE KNOWLEDGE LAB: Technology, Creativity, Social Organisation

A WEEKEND GATHERING FOR COLLABORATIVE AND CREATIVE REFLECTION

February 3/4/5, 2006. Institute for Advanced Studies, Lancaster
University, North West England.
*******************************************************************

Continuing the experimental Knowledge Lab project, this weekend will be
a conference without presentations or key note speeches. The aim is to
bring together a variety of people - waged and unwaged thinkers,
students, activists, hackers - from all over the world for intense
discussion sessions rather than serial monologues, on such topics as

* Democratisation of nanotech/biotech/infotech
* Privacy & Surveillance
* Commodification & Art
* Psychedelics and biological "enhancements"
* Military/Defence involvement in technological development
* Feminism & Technology
* Enclosures & Commons
* Indymedia
* Publishing Politics

and more!

There will also be a HACKLAB running hands-on workshops on a variety of
Free Software applications (from web browsers, email and encryption
programs to VJing tools, video editing, and writing code).

Find out more at http://www.knowledgelab.org.uk/wiki/SecondKnowledgeLab

Participation is limited to 100 people, so get in touch NOW if you would
like to be involved. Children are welcome, but please let us know ASAP
if you intend to bring a small person! n.moeller at lancaster.ac.uk
