State of Sabotage
First started by artist Robert Jelinek as a project in 1992, in operation since 1994 as an international music and art label, collective and organization, Sabotage now, in 2003, draws its own artistic conclusions and declares itself a state - a state in time, with its citizens' territories constantly growing, but without the demarcation of national borders. Everyone can own an SoS passport and enjoy the status of an SoS citizen. SoS is a physically vital collective body, installed in real daily social and political space. It is a growing organism whose dynamics, spirit and diversity are shaped by the citizens themselves. SoS - MindState & State Art SoS rejects national borders, political dogmas, instrumentalization, and religious fanaticism. Diplomacy is conducted through artistic sovereignty and trans-nationality - art in state as a direct form of independent state art. The territorial property or rented space of SoS citizens (apartments, houses, offices, businesses, property, garages, etc.) is registered in the electronic SoS embassy. The ground space (floor plan) is connected to other SoS ground spaces, forming a whole represented in the internet by a cartographic map. With each new citizen, the geographic and geo-physical territory of the state grows. With an increase of citizens and their real territories a virtual continent emerges in the process.
