| <nettime> nettime: Projects [list] | 
Greetings Nettimers..!
Since the Nettime_North_America Gathering there have been various
expressions of interest on this list and in the backroom channels from a few
members in organising further flesh-gatherings worldwide. There has also
been interest in web-based applications that could be developed alongside
email-based communication.
For these purposes we have assembled a discussion & organization
list called: 
    < project:nettime >
a.k.a.
    <nettime-p>
_ email address of the list:
    projectnettime@listcultures.org
_ subscribe or unsubscribe info:
http://listcultures.org/mailman/listinfo/projectnettime_listcultures.org
Please note that this list is first of all pragmatic and practical in its
application: it is designed to facilitate organisation of further gatherings
and web-based projects and it is not meant to repeat nettime-l debate or
what-have-you. "We're trying to get the biz done on this list."
Currently there are three gatherings on the drawing table -
__ Amsterdam - Eric Kluitenberg
__ London - David Garcia & Richard from London CyberSalon
__ Germany, on a train - Patrice Riemens
As well as a number of project ideas:
__ a Montreal_NNA publication
__ a Print-on-Demand publication of recent Nettime posts with MUTE
To better facilitate these projects and the gatherings, we are also
exploring setting up a WIKI / webspace.
The overall point here is to create a project-based space to facilitate
(again) organisation and the exchange of ideas among us disconnected,
globally estranged Nettimers; as well as to serve as an archive of these
efforts, whatever their outcome.
yours,
the above organisers,
