NETSTRIKE:
N.O.S.I.A.E.
Netstrike per la libera circolazione e il libero accesso ai saperi!
Target www.siae.it
Ora 15.00-18.00
Data lun 15 gennaio 2001
Info: www.netstrike.it

Negli ultimi mesi abbiamo assistito ad un accerchiamento piuttosto
articolato sul fronte della libera circolazione dei saperi, della liberta'
di comunicazione e di espressione, di tutti quegli ambiti, come la Rete ad
esempio, che prevedono la cooperazione e la condivisione come modalita'
fondamentali di relazione.
La nuova legge sul diritto d'autore, i casi ripetuti di censura, la
Conferenza Europea sui Brevetti, la proposta di imbavagliamento della
informazione online del sig. Abruzzo, la questione Cavazza, e molte altre.
Eppure tutto cio' evidentemente contrasta con l'espandersi delle tecniche
di riproduzione digitale, l'enorme sviluppo della rete e di comunita'ad
essa correlate, la disponibilita' dei mezzi di produzione immateriale.
E' finito il tempo delle lobby e del controllo di pochi sull'accesso e
sulla circolazione dei saperi ed e' venuto il momento di dare
pubblicamente e apertamente battaglia a tutt* coloro che
anacronisticamente e disperatamente cercano ancora di propagandare una
societa' dell'informazione di tipo chiuso !
La Siae e' un ottimo esempio di come un enorme macchina burocratica non
voglia scendere a patti con il futuro anche a costo di penalizzare
pesantemente chi, studente, artista indipendente o quant'altr* cerca con
l'aiuto delle nuove o vecchie tecnologie di abbassare l'esorbitante costo
di accesso ai saperi !
La SIAE e' un eredita' del passato che cerca disperatamente di limitare la
libera circolazione dei saperi per propagare se' stessa e la lobby che la
controlla.
Non e' piu' tempo per la SIAE, per il software
proprietario, per il monopolio nelle distribuzioni, per i bollini, per le
censure.
I saperi vogliono essere liberi
E' tempo di entrare nel futuro

:-2) Forse non tutti sanno che...
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

a) ...il numero 1 del primo volume della fanzine "Between C and D", edita da
Joel Rose, East Village, New York, inverno 1984, era realizzata al computer
e stampata sui moduli continui perforati della carta per stampante. Nelle
"istruzioni per l'uso" veniva riportata la frase "Questa rivista e' user
friendly. Invece di sfogliare le pagine da destra a sinistra, sfogliatele
dal basso verso l'alto".

b) ..."la piu' grande mistificazione nel campo delle biblioteche, per di
piu' imaginarie, e' quella relativa alla vendita all'asta della collezione
di libri del conte Fortsas, specializzato nel raccogliere solo opere
sconosciute a tutti i bibliofili. L'operazione fu preceduta da un catalogo
diffuso fra collezionisti e amatori e comprendente 52 segnalazioni
bibliografiche garantite in copia unica. Il 10 agosto 1840, giorno della
vendita, si seppe che il conte non era mai esistito e che la beffa era opera
del bibliofilo Renier Chalon. Solo tre volumi erano effettivamente esistenti
ma cio' induce ancora oggi qualche bibliofilo alla spasmodica ricerca degli
altri quarantanove che, benche' segnalati con titoli e autori improbabili
vengono irriducibilmente considerati alla stregua degli Ufo: oggetti, solo
per il momento, non identificati." (da "Encyclopaedia Heterologica", vol. I,
testi e illustrazioni di Berlinghiero Buonarroti, Wunderkammer, pag. 27,
1998, Firenze).

c) ...il termine "arte concettuale" viene teorizzato dall'artista fluxus
Henry Flint nel 1961 e pubblicato in un suo testo "Concept art" all'interno
dell'antologia di testi "An Anthologhy" curata da LaMonte Young nel 1962.
Sempre Henry Flint nel 1963 e' autore di una performance con Tony Conrad
davanti al metropolitan Museum of Art a New York in cui manifestano con
addosso dei cartelli tipo uomo-sandwich con su scritto "Destroy art" o
"Demolish serious culture".

d) ...esiste un interessante libro dal titolo "G.A.A.G. - the Guerrilla Art
Action Group - 1969-1976 a selection", Printed Matter Inc., New York, 1978.
Principalmente il gruppo G.A.A.G. e' formato da Jon Hendricks e Jean Toche
ed il libro e' una raccolta di documenti sul lavoro dell'omonimo gruppo.
All'inizio del libro alcune note di Jon Hendricks del 1967 iniziano cosi':
"People get upset when I say we're having a show of destructionist art in
the gallery...".

e) ..."Nel 1985, quando il gruppo PRAXIS dichiaro' la propria intenzione di
organizzare uno Sciopero dell'Arte per il periodo 1990-93, risolveva la
questione di che cosa avrebbero fatto i membri del gruppo nei cinque anni
che precedevano lo sciopero. Questo periodo e' stato caratterizzato dallo
svilupparsi di una lotta contro la cultura ricevuta dalla societa' al potere
(e si e' manifestata fisicamente nell'adozione di identita' multiple come
Karen Eliot e nell'organizzazione di eventi come il Festival del
Plagiarismo)." (da "Art Strike 1990-1993" di Stewart Home, tradotto in
italiano su "Opposizioni '80", antologia a cura di T. Tozzi, Amen Edizioni,
Milano, 1991).
