CAMOVER 2013

COME OUT AND PLAY!
"CAMOVER is a game for everybody who hates CCTV."

CCTV: "an instrument of social control and the production of discipline; the production of 'anticipatory conformity'; the certainty of rapid deployment to observed deviance and; the compilation of individualised dossiers of the monitored population."


Idea of the game

The idea of the game is to destroy as much cctv-cams as possible. For this we decided to announce a competition. For joining in you need a group with a name that starts with command…, briagde…, etc. and ends with a historic person. The only other requirement for you is to be aware of internet-safety.
Now you should not only do the action as you do all the time but also make a documentation with at least a report published on german indymedia or linksunten.indymedia.org. If you have pictures, videos or other evidence for the destroyed cameras, you get extra-credits. CAMOVER.blogsport.de will give you the attention your action deserves.

The CAMOVER game ends with the 19 february 2013 – the day when the european police congress in Berlin is being held. The winner may walk in the first line of the demonstration against the cops on 16 february and crouch down to avoid being hit by flying cams. (source: camover.blogsport.de)

NEEN AAN GASBOETES



Een zeer interessant magazine dat inzoomt op de gasboetes-problematiek.

 De gemeente wordt rechtbank: waar is de scheiding der machten gebleven? Tegenwoordig zijn we overgeleverd aan de willekeur van laaggeschoolde GAS-ambtenaren die "god" mogen spelen: ze zijn immers vaststeller van de overtreding en tegelijk mogen ze de straf bepalen. Dit zou nooit dezelfde persoon mogen zijn & gaat zo rechtstreeks in tegen de grondwet. De gemeenten grijpen hun kans om de burgers hun vrijheden nog harder te begrenzen en stellen de onnozelste reglementen op.

Tevens worden er vragen opgeroepen: Waarom wordt de opvoedende rol van de overheid eensklaps omgevormd in een financiële transactie?

Hoe lang gaan we dit nog pikken?

QUOTE OF THE DAY


“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the
 things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. 
Sail away from the safe harbor. 
Catch the trade winds in your sails. 
Explore. Dream. Discover.”

- Mark Twain

Sans eux, le mouvement des free-parties serait resté confiné aux campagnes anglaises. Au début des années 90, dans le sillage de la comète Spiral Tribe, toute l'Europe a plongé dans la musique électronique avec pour mot d'ordre "free party, free music, for free people". - continue here

QUOTE OF THE DAY


“The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can't be any large-scale revolution until there's a personal revolution, on an individual level. It's got to happen inside first.” 
― Jim Morrison

SUMMER 2012


----
TEMPORARY AUTONOMOUS ZONE
--
"Zijn wij gedoemd om nooit autonomie mee te maken, nooit zelfs maar een moment lang op een uitsluitend door vrijheid geregeerde bodem te staan? Moeten we wachten tot de hele wereld bevrijd is van politieke overheersing voordat één van ons weet wat vrijheid is?"
--
"De TAZ (temporary autonomous zone) is een guerillatactiek, om in een tijdperk waarin de staat alomtegenwoordig is, een locatie te claimen als tijdelijke vrijstaat. De TAZ is de opstand binnen ieders bereik, het feest dat elk moment kan losbarsten."
--
(uit TAZ van Hakim Bey)
--

FREE PARTY FREE TEKNO FREE PEOPLE
--

WE CONTINUE THE BATTLE AGAINST THE SYSTEM 
THAT WANTS US TO LIVE IN DYSTOPIA
-
MUTATE & SURVIVE
EXPLORE & COMMUNICATE
-

OUR POLITICS OF CHOICE IS NONE
OUR RELIGION OF CHOICE IS NONE
OUR WEAPON OF CHOICE IS FREE TEKNO
-

THIS IS OUR AUTONOMOUS ZONE
-
FORWARD THE REVOLUTION
RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW

HISTORY OF SQUATTING IN THE UK

From Aaron's reports (@aaronlakoff)

Jim is a resident of London, England, and a long-time organizer with the Advisory Service for Squatters, A.S.S. Here he speaks about the history of squatting in the UK, going as far back as the 1300's. This interview looks at squatting's relationship to the anarchist movement in the UK, the changing legal framework around squatting, and squatting within a framework of other social movements in the country.

The Advisory Service For Squatters is a collective of unpaid workers who have beenrunning a daily advice service for squatters and homeless people since 1975. It grewout of the former Family Squatters Advisory Service, which was founded in the late 1960's. ASS publishes The squatters Handbook, the twelfth edition of which is the current one, and has sold in excess of 150,000 copies since 1976. ASS offers advice on how to squat, legal help to squatters and helps fight evictions and challenge police abuse of the homeless.

THE HUNTER S. THOMPSON SHRINE

The Hunter Thompson Shrine was created on Snowmass on February 20, 2006 (on the one-year anniversary of his death), by a band of his friends and admirers, consisting of five people. They call themselves the "Glorious Leaders of the Underground Movement (GLUM)--The Creators of the Hunter S. Thompson Shrine." They go by the following names: RUSTY HEMATOMA, MISTER Z, R. W. FEATHERSTONE, PHLEGM THROWER, and MR. QUICK. Included in the Shrine are numerous photos, an American Flag, a gloved arm with “Gonzo” written on it, a lizard covered with multi-colored jewels, an air horn, a “Rolling Stone” magazine cover, several newspaper articles, Tibetan prayer flags, The Woody Creeker, a bottle of Mr. Bubbles, and other items.
(excerpt from  aspensnowmassshrines.com)

Every winter on Presidents' Day the GLUM updates the shrine, they also hike each year to the shrine for a camp out on August 20. It is located at the Snowmass ski area, near his home in Woody Creek. On that day in 2005, six months after his death on February 20, his cremated ashes were shot into the sky during a private ceremony at his home in  Aspen, Colorado, by a cannon. It was launched from a 47 meter tower that was topped by a double-thumbed fist clutching a peyote button - the symbol that he used for his campaign when he ran for sheriff of Pitkin County, Colorado, as part of a group of citizens running for local offices on the "Freak Power" ticket. The platform included promoting the decriminalization of drugs (for personal use only, not trafficking, as he disapproved of profiteering), tearing up the streets and turning them into grassy pedestrian malls, banning any building so tall as to obscure the view of the mountains, and renaming Aspen "Fat City" to deter investors. Thompson, having shaved his head, referred to the Republican candidate as "my long-haired opponent", as he wore a crew cut. This private ceremony dubbed the "Gonzo blastoff" was held at his home Aspen, Colorado.


In 1978 Thompson & Steadman began to plan his funeral. It was recorded and included in FEAR AND LOATHING IN GONZOVISION (BBC Documentary). It contains several scenes of them planning the event. Thompson told the BBC that wanted his ashes to be launched by a cannon from the monument he designed himself. So eventually during his funural his family and friends made his last wish come true.
