dragi vuce, evo da sklepam nesto za tebe. bicu vrlo kratka. inace dobre vesti mi stizu povodom ovog mog ludila; zainteresovala sam neke mlade ljude na novom gradskom radiju koji zele izvestaj iz ljubljane. tako mi lepo spremi materijale, ne samo o konferenciji, nego malo i o ljudmili tj. o vasem radu poslednjih 6 meseci (zanimljivi novi programi, projekti itd.) da se malo reklamiramo. to je sve jako dobro za opstu net stvar. mozda stvarno ima nade!!!! a sad predjimo na stvar. saljem ti materijal na engleskom da ti ustedim pare za prevodioca. CYBERNS Last decade was a decade of separation in Yugoslav region. Separation came trough political reality supported by all goverment media as well as so called "independent" media. Everyone spoke against each other in order to create a new, separated reality.So, finaly, there were (and still are) borders on all levels: borders between states, borders between parties, borders between cities, borders between reach and poor, borders between colegues, borders between refugees with money and refugees without money, borders between human beings. People were working on it. Lot of them. Time was passing by. Country stayed isolated, people even more. What about Internet? Internet was somwhere else. Even if we count first attempt of young people in Belgrade on March 1991, big efforts of Radio B92 during 96/97 street-revolution, we still have Separation in our society.Media politic is still the same. Thats why we desperately need Internet among us. The only possible way to distribute informations without censorships scissors could be trough independent and non-comercial Internet links. And now is time to create such links. It is not enough to put as many names as possible on mailing lists which are existing abroad. We need our own Internet community which will conect people inside the country, with its main dutu to assure them access to informations of all sorts, from all fields as well as access to international mailing lists. The very first step on this road is CIBERNS. What exactly it is? CYBERNS is a Project which has two parts.First part of the Project is local mailing list or "net", as we call it, which ,as the first goal has distribution of informations and texts within Novi Sad Internet community. In the same time CYBERNS must be connected with other non-profit and independent mailing lists in Yugoslavia and abroad.The second part of the Project should be electronic media research lab with a task to educate as well as to support Internet projects in future.But it will be no easy job to organize such thing in Yugoslavia. There are still deep economical crisis which results in money problem which results further in lack of technical equipment. And there are still visible separation problems, which should be solved very soon if we hope to get out of isolation. What do we need? We need support, not just financial, but also education trough workshops, exchanging ideas and projects and practical presentations of Internet art in public. If we are going to stay closed in a small community, all work will be in wain. So,lets try to make that dream truth. We need you as advisors, as a supporters, as a friends.
