Given the singularity of each resistance organization, we
+ propose to look for convergence points where we can act
+ together and share affordances actualized in tools
+ adapted to, and emerging from our practices. Exploring
+ processes of organization in groups via their
+ technological practices in specific relation to elected
+ tools, we look for transversal links. We build on
+ community experiences characterising them from our own
+ past and evaluating actual modes and com-possibilities.
+
Among other things we're looking for:
+
+
The conditions for a technological practice
+ embedded in a community.
+
The sustainability of organic collective technological
+ practices.
+
Distantiating from the need of immediate quantifiable
+ 'impact'.

Deborah Lupton worked already in 1993 on the analogy
- between the communication of technology threats and of
- diseases, she presents us the analogy that is voluntary
- made between the computer and the body in a hygienic

- to desinfect and sanitize our world. Since then the issue
- of scale and control.
