Re: <nettime> Criminalization of critical academic research and political engagement

[Bas van Heur <basvanheur {AT} gmx.net>]

a "trust rating network for political artists"? Come on, don't fool 
yourself. It's always possible that your reputation will be damaged - 
that's life, deal with it.

Instead: inform yourself, read the websites on the arrest of Andrej 
Holm, understand the rationale behind this arrest and make a decision 
for yourself how to act.

The ongoing discussion on this list about the banality of blogging is 
all very interesting - although repetitive - but it's utterly 
disappointing to see that currently the list is apparently only 
marginally interested in the repressive realities of life outside the 
media bubble. Political artists?

best,

Bas
