Social Revolutions and the Internet.




The term social revolution may have different connotations depending on the write, audience, and age groups.



In the Trotskyist movement, the term "social revolution" refers to an upheaval in which existing property relations are smashed. This spured on the October Revolution in Russia in 1917 and the Cuban Revolution, as both caused capitalist (and in some cases pre-capitalist) property relations to turn into non-capitalist property relations as they operated by plan rather than by market. All of it failed in as much as there was always a conditional connection between personal consensus, personal ownerships relating to long term commitments, and market forces And hard as they tried they could not feed their populace.



Today social revolutions are contrasted with an accelerator perceptual view by which all sorts by a technological revolution as well as an over taking and powerful information revolution created by the Internet. Political revolutions are becoming more ethnocentric in their domains in which there has been a slow land grab-possibly the last we will ever know. Governments, or the dominate ethic groups are not necessarily replaced but are divorced. Collectivism is now seen what it has been, a con - game in which those who do not work will get those who will work to make things happen to share the product of their labor, as well as the resulting capital gains with no questions are allowed.



Once a basic idenity is achieved or altered, but in which both social and cultural relations are predominantly left intact by traditional known human governance, then the state in which controls the territory has survived. Today, and as a result, social revolutions do now, and most dramtically imply the necessity that the personal idenity as a whole has more of a say or control over education and the aspirations of their youth, and are likewise to obtain highly advance technological information portals and supporting goods and services personal goals.



In countries such as Gabon, Africa, this has foster additional national anxiety as education and information about other successful ethnic struggles are likewise revealing a great Internal Exile of one's former ethnic idenity. It was the greater Internal Exile in which the majority of the Russian elite had which caused the rapid collaspe of the former Soviet Union. Confronted with this a social scape or focus is likewise formed. As a result several African as well as Eastern European States can no longer afford using traditional contraols over other ethnic groups and their lives, as several ethnic groupings are slowly denying that their own ethnic idenity to ever is in control, will be no more expropriated.



In this, the traditional rule of both libertarian socialist and anarchistic forms have completely lost their footings. The same is likewise true for Eurocentric social and cultural perceptions over youth, or those who are now under 24 years of age. Teen and young adult parlance, and the accelerated information social revolution is radically bottom-up, as opposed to both traditional education and sociopoliticcal and sociocultural existing vanguard, Thus this social form of revolution is now led by purely techno-informational revolution of the rapid increases in information various forms insourcings trigger by Internet spiders and i now actively triggering human behavioral reorganization of all society.



At one time, a century earlier .. " In the words of Peter Kropotkin, "social revolution means the reorganization of the industrial, economic life of the country and consequently also of the entire structure of society."



However, with William Gates and others in the lead of the Internet Revolution " The keys to power is who is the developer of information content and creating links which matches the focus of ones use of meta taggings. More generally, the term now used to depict social revolution is the resulting outsourcing now affecting human society through massive change in computer hardwear, and more high advanced products of telecommunications, such a cell phones. Soon, and very much the science fiction television tricoder used by the crew of the Star Ship Enterprise is now technically possible within just a few years.



Thus in the view of social revolutions there was the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the American Civil Rights Movement and the 1960 hippie or counterculture.



Now with additional grab for elite bandwidths of both academic information content, and published thesis after the year 1998, and reasearch analysis, the real reformation on religious beliefs, personal identity, freedom of speech, music and arts, fashion, alternative technology or environmentalism has started to decentralised both secondary education and higher education, as well as the popular media. The innovation of the LapTop is very much like the autos used during the 1950 and 60s which created a fire of additional national and International expectations of Americans as a whole.



Presently and possible too late, Islamic thinking, especially under the Shiite school of thought, a social revolution on their sociocultural orthodoxy of how they were created, are now, in the eventual confrontation of this massive globalization of information insourcing [ Which are right now crawling into their own information computer mainframe servers and websites and adding them to their indexs. ] has to be tyrannical and despotic to its people to maintain their radical political ends. In the meantime, those who are under the ages of 26 year s of age and are Arab middle class have already been exposed to the Internet. The resulting reaction caused by the initial underlying concept of an Islamic Revolution, though key concepts that moral freedom is the most important aspect of a human's fundemental needs, cannot condone the affects of its influences on this populace at the sametime. Thus an information cap is implacing an Internal Exile Islamic styled, especially in Iran. What the reaction of this youth sector will become when the sociopolitical processes creates the conditions of social stablization necessary for massive access to the Internet have already been triggered by the resulting needs for emotional liberation, which is historically socioculturally innate within the semitic cultures of this region. Thus the outsourcing of both the context and cultural democratic flow of resulting global scale of information could trigger an Islamic Reformation. If not then a collaspe of Islam itself; this is the present anxiety of " The Radical Islamists, and their drive for controls through impossed self-style political motivated harsh moral codes, along with their personal security anxeities. This philosophy, however, can not regulated the flow of information over the Internet throughout the world, nor into their own homes and children. Key Factor: Over the horizon is the integration of the Internet with satellite telecommunications.

It is for the reason why extremist have already evolving more dramatic computer viruses. This was already successfully used against the Israelis en masse. For those in the West there will be no massive class upheavals but the dramatic changes in the overall perceptual ranges of the emerging society taking benefit from the result of the social revolutions created by the Internet, now is bring about radical forms of cultural democracies to occur within the newer resulting traditions of social intercourse over the Internet.

We all are living in a new age.

Courage, integrity, and most fascinating of all, the perceptual innovations of visions, is that one unique human spark of intellegence which inspires cultures to come about.

The human soul - sort - of - speak, where practices and the education to impact human behavior, especially of its youth sector, and learning, and as a result bringing to the peoples and societies as a whole their sense of direction and purpose.


Thus the networks purpose:


This is an outreach system to discover not only existing groups in the ongoing Sociocultural Revoluations of Cultural Democracies, but also to act as a catalyst to inspire others to emerg.
Within every heart, there exist great expectations and aspirations. The fulfillment of which inspires the centrality of social, cultural, and spiritual avant garde cycles to occur within every generation, era, and times.

The Heroic Generation.


At the cutting edge of Du Avant Garde, is that a civilization's development rest solely on the socio - cultural processes of how it nurtures it's youth. Thus is should be to everyone surprise that something happened previous to the year of 2000.
What has happen, is the development of The Heroic Generation of American youth who are now entering the 16 to 18 years of age, as of June, 2006.
Why?
The Critical aspect of this is based on the clear observation that as the American civilization has became more complex, there has been increasing equal complex burdens of sociocultrual and sociopolitical adaptions being made in childrearing techniques by both the parents and children of each family since about 1982 till the present. The forms of these adaptations have magnified the self - perceptions of diversity of the emerging core of youth even more, than their parents own development in their own childhoods'; the present impetus of greater self - discoveries as a result.
The newer aspect....

Then the physical impact of hours and hours being spent at home computers and access to the Internet by children as early as 2 1/2 has likewise created further expansion of the depth of the child's development of their audio and visual perceptions, increasing their range of needed additional information, and emotional needs during all the years afterwards; their growing dependencies upon the Internet.

As of now:

Their resulting increased visual and intellect range [ what is still not yet been measure by present early childhood reseachers - conclusively, and maybe by their present skill research skills unmeasureable ] is far different than their parents. This component has likewise appeared in experiences of increasing fustrations in their dealings and learning with their primary and secondary school teachers - who in most instances are unaware of their emerging student traits.
This is the additional impact of computer usage and its ability to influence their own innate drives - while most of their parents being totally unaware. Furthermore, those who families have home acccess to the Internet have triggered a unique struggle for this generation of Internet users to find common idenity; this has created the basis for a different more complex cultural society to emerge within America's mulit - cultural mosaic.
Most amazing is the increasing and voluntary, they are not being forced to commit in using the Internet by their parents, interdiction of the internet experiences into radicalizing their abstractual intellegence, and near fantasy visual ranges in conjunction with the mental impacted sociocultural sphere of influences of present early childhood ( per - 12s ) sensory developments by their parent's sociocultural, socioeconomic, and sociospiritual childrearing efforts [ What the parents are passing on and the advance technique they likewise have used from the radical 1970's. ]. Moreover, their developmental causal extrapolations of rapid access and installation of competant and more highly advanced usage of computer soft wear technologies, and internet prowless has impacted new adaptations after 12 YO ( and at a critical developmental stage Piget/Erickson); thereby creating new unkown emotional structures which has their further generated biological resultant imprints on this population's innate drives. There is no research known within this area either.
Part conclusion...
" Similar to design technology functions invested in computer advance technologies and rapid streaming of mass information within the growing massive information insourcing spiders of the Internet ( here before never used by previous generations ) have had a radical impact which are largely the additional unknowns confronted by todays parents and unfortunately and similarly by present University educators as well. They, " you " [ if " you " fall into this generation ] are now the outsourcing resultants"
Now, historically, this process has created new emotional and intellectual structures and have been observed to be firmly inserted into this generations' overall personality traits which is generated by every single successful experience during time durations [ after an unknown quanity of time expended ] related computer access obtained by the child user.
In dealing with present forms of how children are integrated into society this has created a separate intellect, nonetheless, and thus forming new resultant and yet unkown " impacted innate intellectual drives which are increasingly creating emotional technocentered more adpated " new corridors."
Presently this has been recently touched on, largely in their emerging emotional fields, by Presidential Canidate Barack Obama. His campaign use of the Internet and who, the users, he has been getting his political message to, and likewise his contributions from.
Conclusion ....
"Simply the causal resultant of increased usage and depth of range of their nervous systems has result in a different intellectual population.It is what is contained within in this new corridor is their main future focus of unity. How internet experiences have impacted their own personal, and individual bio - spheres, and the resultant increased locations and more diverse usage of their brain stimulus is still even the greater unknown - even to themselves."
Thus and unlike Gertude Stein quote about the " Lost Generation " We now have the " Heroic Generation. " In a historic review we have had Heroic Generations born in 1745, 1832, 1876, 1919, 1946, and then 1982.
What is even more surprising is that they have caught upon certain indenity ethos which is in its initial stages of social and cultural evolution - development; and are just now being defined by themselves, while others outsiders are in the dark. Moreover, the socio-spirituality of this genertion is their special gifts.
The result in art, music, and others is just now appearing at their other edges....This is leading us to the....
The impact of which will be felt culturally around the year 2016. Politically is the greater unknown, can Barack Obama tap into it? No one knows...
Pax Fidelis!

A Focus on Les Avant Garde:

Symbol of Cutlural Democracy - Les Avanat Garde A brief of Les Avant Garde Ithaca
Les Avant Garde Ithaca In the twist and turns of various movements, the increase of politicalizations of every aspect of life-when you are concieved to when you have died and buried, and far after your buried too-liberty and free expressions are becoming only metaphors used at a political rally or duing a nes conference. Art, theatre, and writings are bland, and the stuff in which they are printing on turns yellow faster as a result of being recycled paper. World Wide blood is everywhere. Political hype is becoming a major industry, and when someone takes a long look into world issues at hand, the harder it becomes to know the truth. It is as if the mind personality of the species itself is shutting down. Are we really free? Has been the rallying call for alot of people who have not seen the end of the growing madness, the Era of the Durge in which we, as civilized individuals have traped ourselves in. To be free, and to have open living spaces are becoming more limitied. Emails, phone calls and letters have come in world wide. And they have created a focus. Les Avant Garde here in Ithaca-though its membership is through-out the world-whereas Ithaca is only an email-drop. Not looking for additional answers of difficult issues, but just wanting to live free. Arts and recreation. IE. Football, as creative associations are now being experimented. New media, along side representation and clear forms of the human body likewise are merging with art The writing of the experience being kissed for the first time being more important than a novel by Tolstoy. The idea of virgin being more applied to untouched land forms, than a woman's chasity. And to twique ( new word ) the INTERNET, programing new language by adding bi-nominal letter groups to creat new words. We once thought of using Klingong ( Yes someone did create a Klingong dictionary and grammar book too ! ), but we are not likely to hit barton octives require to pronounce most of. Singularly Cultural Democracy, An Evolving Essay by Roger M. Christian http://cultural-democracy.blogspot.com and his Cultural Democracy WebSite/ http://the-falcon1.tripod.com/cultural_democracy are all now proving their worth in producing them. Other news are coming in daily. In the meantime, the Arabs have come up with something new.... Sleeper Email One: Sleeper eamil comes from those who are members-workers of various Arab regime buracracies, but who do not approve of its political action of one sort or another will email embrassing informtion through the email INTERNET systems. Two: The programing of email with an embedded virus which only attacks the email it is attached to once it is closed-the trigger. Moreover, this form of INTERNET communication has one other fascinating aspect, the IP address is scrambled too! So once the email closes the enbedded virus destoys not only the part which can make the email, but all forms of emails which are recordable and thereby traced. Roger M.

An Eastern European example of cultural democracy.

Metelkova Mesto:


The Anatomy of a Slovenian Cultural Movement[2006-03-11]
The Slovenian capital of Ljubljana may appear to be just another quaintly idyllic, historically rich, economically tourist friendly Central-European city. But if you poke around the city a bit and start asking some questions, you will quickly discover that this charming city has a robust and thriving alternative and countercultural art scene. At the very heart of this scene is the vaunted Metelkova mesto. The Mesto is an interconnected network of buildings and open spaces which (depending on the time of day) function as galleries, studios, bars, night clubs, music venues, lecture halls, internet clubs, youth centers, libraries, restaurants and pretty much anything else you can imagine. On any given day or night of the week, and at any time of year, there is always something going on somewhere at Metelkova. In 2006, this self sustaining community is possibly the most artistically dynamic, musically vibrant, creatively experimental and intelectually progressive places in all of Central Europe. Metelkova mesto did not appear out of nowhere however. The history of this incredible place is as dramatic and contreversial as the art that it supports. Following is a brief history of Metelkova written by those that fought long and hard to bring it into existence and that continue to work tirelessly to coordinate and create its diverse projects, performances and programs. Tim ChaseHistory of Metlkova mesto-Metelkova is the commonly referred-to name of the former "Fourth of July" Military Barracks, along Metelkova street in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Urbanistically-architecturally speaking Metelkova is made up of two complementing parts: the Southern and the Northern section. The story of Metelkova mesto, which is comprised exclusively of the Northern section, begins in the second half of the eighties when a strong national independence movement succeeded in igniting a vibrant social cultural scene in Ljubljana. An initiative to convert the military barracks along Metelkova street into a multicultural center sprung up and over 200 individuals and groups joined into the Network for Metelkova. In April 1992, a good half a year after the Yugoslav Peoples Army's departure from Ljubljana, the newly formed Government of the Republic of Slovenia assigned the ultimate purpose of the barracks to be that of the program of the Network for Metelkova. It all seemed to be going the way the protagonists of the Network had planned.... Accept for the fact that the Ljubljana City Government was determined to destroy the barracks so they slowled the legal proceedings down to a crawl. The Network did not want another winter to take its toll on the buildings and so they planned an occupation of the buildings should legal attempts to acquire them fail. Under public pressure, the City Council promised to answer the unresolved matters. And it did… On the 9th of September, the City Council responded to the Network's requests by attempting an unannounced and illegal demolition of Metelkova mesto. In response to this act, approxamitely 150 self-organised individuals took up occupation in the Northern Section of Metelkova barracks. A week later, the City Council ruled to disconnect power as well as the water supply. Despite these hardships, a rich and inspiring cultural program was organised and actuated. In only the first few months (September to December 1993) there were over 200 happenings at Metelkova (art exhibitions, concerts, literary readings, theatre plays and performances, etc.). Many individuals and groups invested a lot of time and effort into securing proper living and working conditions.The initial enthusiasm of the Network eventually began to give way once the winter set in. A lot of people left Metelkova, some angry, some disappointed, some tired. Due to the impossible conditions (working and living in utter darkness and cold), there were vandalisms, burglaries and robberies. Only a few activities remained at Metelkova. In the face of these mounting setbacks and growing sense of apathy, a new enlarged Network for Metelkova was assembled. It reconstituted itself into an association of individuals, and legal entities and together they created a new organizationel model - the Institution of Retina. The job of Retina was to help settle the situation at Metelkova and then to become a kind of a service or umbrella for non-govrnmental organisations. From January to April 1994, there was no formal organization at Metelkova, and the groups and individuals thus had to organize themselves.In the summer of 1994 the Slovene Government made a crucial decision to assign the unoccupied Southern Section of Metelkova to the Ministry of Culture - to be used by the Slovene Ethnographic Museum, the National Museum, the gallery of Modern Arts and the Rectorate of the Rep. Slovenia for the Protection of Natural Heritage. One building, however, Metelkova 6, was assigned for needs of non-institutional culture. The idea of conversion was approaching its final realisation. At the end of 1994, the City authorities decided that the Nothern Section needed to be settled as well. The people of Metelkova together with architect Kevin Kaufman from New York produced the Metelkova Developement Plan, a plan which layed out structural solutions for the individual buildings. On the 10th of December the roof of Sola building burned down, and later water soaked the entire building. The squatters living there moved to other buildingschasing some of the remaining artists out of their studios.In 1995, the mayor of Ljubljana, the people of Metelkova and Retina signed a Protocol on settling the Metelkova situation once and for all. An agreement was signed to arrange rent contracts as well as standards for acceptable working conditions. In September 1996, The Lovci buiding, the best-kept building of the complex, was the first to get water and electricity. Channel Zero and Gala hala performance halls in the Pesci building also received electricity and subsequently distributed it throughout the whole complex. Thus the process of creating and organizing cultural programs at Metelkova became a permanent reality.Philosophy and Actions at Metelkova mestoLike any other real city, Metelkova mesto (mesto =city) also embraces public spaces intended for association, amusement, flow of information and inspiration. Although sometimes the opinion prevails that Metelkova mesto is one single artist's studio, the place actually offers a whole bunch of other adventures. Namely, if Metelkova did not have any open public space, the majority of us would not have anything to do there, would we? Who would like to hang around in a studio? Open spaces at Metelkova, which host various events, are of considerable quality: lectures, debates of all kinds, film, day-dreaming, sports competitions, feminist workshops, homosexual bars, planning of more direct forms of activism. The different venues and clubs are: SOT-24 Club (youth handicapped deprivileged club), Monokel Club (lesbian), Tiffany Club (gay), Elf's Reading Room (anarchist's library), 100% Mizzart Club (party), Channel Zero (concerts, parties), Club Gromka (concerts, parties, movies, talks, theatre, performances), Menza pri koritu (concerts, movies, talks, theatre, performances, youth activities), Jalla Jalla (arabic kitchen) and Gala Hall (concerts, parties)! There is no time or excuse for boredom! Along with all of this, the open spaces at Metelkova mesto contributes significantly to the growth of social (political) awareness of both the Metelkova mesto dwellers and visitors.. Although Metelkova mesto will probably remain a permanent fixture on the chopping block of Ljubljana City Planners and Property Developers, its founders and current administrators remain steadfastly unintimidated and resolute in their commitment to Metelkova's community and progressive ethos. Check out www.metelkova.org to find out more about this fascinating place and to see what kind of programming is in store in the future at each of the various venues. And of course, never forget to cultivate your awareness! Founders of Metelkova Mesto, Edited: Tim Chase
