UniCommon the revolt of living knowledge
Invent the future, reverse the present
The extraordinary months of struggle we experienced have changed us
profoundly, and at the same time have changed the students and the
precarious workers who have been animating with passion and continuity
the conflicts of the past two academic years. They have opened spaces
previously unthinkable, reversed temporality, reshuffled each one's
identity. From Paris to London and Rome down to the Mediterranean a
very solid spectre is haunting the world: a generation's rebellion
against the policies of austerity and cuts in education which
particularly affect young people, their future, the future of Europe
otherwise in decline.

Art and Political Conflict
A public debate at Framer Framed, Tolhuistuin, Amsterdam, Sunday July 6, 2014 - 14.00 - 17.00 hrs.
The relationship between art and political conflict has been
significantly reshaped by the proliferation of digital media and the
internet as a means of instant dissemination of images, texts, and
audiovisual expressions. Artistic /activist actions intervene via these
digital means into an expanded symbolical space that is no longer the
sole sanctuary of artists and art audiences, but instead has become the
'neural fibre' of everyday life.

Digital Tailspin: Ten Rules for the Internet After Snowden
Privacy, copyright, classified documents and state secrets, but also spontaneous network phenomena like flash mobs and hashtag revolutions, reveal one thing – we lost control over the digital world. We experience a digital tailspin, or as Michael Seemann calls it in this essay: a loss of control or Kontrollverlust. Data we never knew existed is finding paths that were not intended and reveals information that we would never have thought of on our own.
