Our mission is to co-create extraordinary art that connects with contemporary audiences providing innovative, engaging and inclusive digital and physical spaces for appreciating and participating in practices in art, technology and social change. As well as finding alternative ways around already dominating hegemonies, thus claiming for ourselves and our peer networks a culturally aware and critical dialogue beyond traditional hierarchical behaviours. Influenced by situationist theory, fluxus, free and open source culture, and processes of self-education and peer learning, in an art, activist and community context.

Some lyrics mixed up...
bring them fear
in the hallowed arena
a cross to bear

I am curious
how she felt

out there
was pushing pushing
As they count
the gold on
all fours
behind closed doors
it worries me
that Oval/ball
we call - earth
a muddy place
we call - world

US's 'Iron Hammer' -
US's 'Iron Hammer' Code Name 1st Used by Nazis US's 'Iron Hammer' Code Name
1st Used by Nazis.
Tue November 18, 2003 12:57 PM ET
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. military's code name for a crackdown on
resistance in Iraq was also used by the Nazis for an aborted operation to
damage the Soviet power grid during World War II.
"Operation Iron Hammer" this week launched the 1st Armored Division's 3rd
Brigade into the roughest parts of Baghdad to ferret out the attackers who
have killed scores of U.S. troops since Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was
ousted in April.
A Pentagon official said the name was chosen because of the "Old Ironsides"
nickname of the 1st Armored Division. He was unaware of any connection to
any Nazi operation.

Re: Transcript of FurtherStudio Critical Forum 2 (Archive).
Hi T.Whid,
Yes, well. We are planning 2 more with the next 2 artists after Jess Loseby
who will be exploring the online facility of FurtherStudio 'Bea Gibson &
Rich White'. And we are also planning very soon other live online debates
also, regarding various subject matters.
Perhaps that bloody Firewall issue will be resolved by the next time...I
hope so.
