--------------------------------------------------------------

This message is a call to participation in the 2005 edition of the 
hackmeeting which is taking place this October at Menorca (Spain), 
by means of proposing nodes of work/activism/difusion and, as is 
getting usual, a network of activities and encounters in and 
around hacktivism, cyberspace, telecommunications and its technopolitical
dimensions.
We've switched the traditional call4papers for the call4nodes where the
participants are not restricted to just papers but to a wider range 
of media (workshops, conferences, 360º tables, expositions, posters, etc) 
that build-up the so-called nodes.
As you already may know, the HM is actually a participative event where
the breach between organizer and public melts diluted into the necessity of
auto-managing collectively the encounter.

This year, the hackmeeting is being develoepd under the constant struggle for
the liberation of spaces for knowledge circulation. In the physical aspect, we
won the sue por the illegal deallocation of the CSOA (Centro Social Okupado
Auto-Gestionado - Auto Managed Social Center or AMSC) Labo03; at the european 
parliament we also won the refusal of the software patents law. In the 
cyberspace, our virtual meeting point, we are celebrating the constant increase 
of our community and that of systems more robust, stable and of course, free.

During our constant work of creation of places for collective experimentation,
knowledge difusion and sharing of abilities, we often clash against bureaucratically
ompiled programs designed to end all this kind of activities up: these materialized
into police forces and estate agencies which execute inexistent judicial orders that
have already obliterated the AMSC "L'Estella" from Mataró --place where the
hackmeeting was going to take place at this year-- and as well the AMSC "Llucalari",
which has been relocated to Biniancolla (Menorca).

Growing under the counter-culture movement, the HackMeetings defend the right of
opening up new spaces of colletive creation by means of overpassing our individual
limitations by reconstructing and (auto)managing the social codes and spaces.

   the results of a project/investigation)

 * Round tables (360º)
 * Expositions (GPL material, old computers, ingenious inventions, new techniques...)

As well as the presential modalities, the HM will provide virtual participation,
so video, audio, and text-writing are always welcome to be put out on the network.
