A-Infos (en) Germany, g8 Resistant Art Festival*

Alternative Culture against liberty deprivations and standardization of people 
and culture ---     Art is our weapon!! --- They are 8, the 8 most powerful 
presidents, who, each year, dressed in $9999 suits, take the right to enforce 
their choices to the whole planet. --- As an act of civil disobedience, we will 
blockade this summit. The G8 world is a world of wars, poverty and misery, loss 
of social and democratic rights, and environment destruction. --- This year 
they will also decide to whom belongs our artistic creations (intellectual 
rights property) and how to control our means of spreading them (information 
and communication control, especially on the net), there won't be any place 
left for Free, Amateur and Autonomous Arts and Spaces...


    With all those who fight against this domination from the "world masters", 
we will demonstrate, with our Free Arts, debates and struggles, that we can 
overthrow their new order, that a fair and equal world is possible and that our 
utopia is concrete !


    As they exploit the whole world, this G8 must be the last !

    As you can imagine, the authorities were not really willing to support the 
protesters in finding Camp Places. Far from it ! The repression was increasing 
in the last weeks as an attempt of demobilizing us, but most of their attempts 
failed, turning their propaganda against themselves.


    They have only allowed 3 small camps, all far from each others to try to 
break our coordination. These camps are based on the hard work of the Camp07 
group but the state asked for signing contracts and paying a caution which 
makes that this camps needs to ask a paying entry to the camp (the Camp07 group 
will also provides water and electricity)...

    That was too far from what we are willing to do, a fully autonomous camp, 
and if we want to prove that our utopia is concrete, we need to demonstrate it !
    Moreover as the 3 camps can only take care of about 15 000 people, we need 
to offer additionnal space to all the others as well, to rest, prepare actions 
and networking between the groups, even if it is with much less comfort.

    On the Free4 camp you will find several Sound Systems grouped in rigs, 
concerts, visual arts, performances, a spray wall,... But also videos and 
speeches about activism, repression and alternatives, an alternative media 
point to relate the infos on the net, an info point, workshops,... And of 
course food and drinks
    If you have any possibilities to participate and to offer some other 
things, we are of course opened to any initiative/project/actions proposed...

    Of course you will need to have some basics things like sleeping materials 
(tent, van,... and sleeping bags) and water and food (remember what means « 
autonomy »).

    But what is also really important to think about is a small PMR Radio 
walky talkie [1] because all the coordination, and not only for the Free4 camp 
but for all actions in general, will be made on radio.

    The 2nd June, after the demo, we will give you a meeting point to go to 
the camp on the radio. For those who won't be able to get a PMR radio, all 
infos will be available at the Infopoints. [2]
    On sites like free4/gipfel/dissent [3] you will find all infos necessary 
to prepare yourself, to be aware of what to take and what is legal/illegal 
there, as well as infos on actions and contacts if you need help during the 
actions (first aid, legal help,...)

    Camps and actions are based on DIY and autonomy so please prepare 
banners/ideas/paint and balloons/flyers/...

    For those who wants to participate actively inside this autonomous camp we 
need to have a few answers to some questions (for those who haven't got in 
touch with us yet):
    what do you plan to do? When will you arrive? Do you need anything? Do you 
have a generator and if not, how many KVa do you need?

    If you are fully autonomous and not really willing to announce yourself 
for reasons that are yours, then of course we will respect your choice and 
welcome you in any way :)

    For special questions, use our GPG-PGP public key [4]

    Thanks

BRING YOUR RADIO ------> G8 Infostystem !!!!!

PMR-Info-Radio

To spread the latest news there will be a PMR-Info-Radio. It´s part of the 
Infosystem and like Infopoints and Infotelephones it will inform you about the 
latest news about demonstrations, blockades and actions. You can reach it 
around Heiligendamm and Rostock-Laage during the Action days. PMR means "Public 
Mobile Radio". This are a small type of walkie-talkies that you can legally buy 
and use. Usually the broadcasting range is about 0.5 km to 5km, depending 
strongly on surroundings (town, mountain, forest, field,...). But to receive 
the Inforadio you don´t need to send - the PMR receives the news like a usual 
radio. Due to norming you can buy the PMR all over Europe for about 20 €, 
better quality for about 40 €, usually you get two for that price. Make sure 
that they have a connection for headphones. In between broadcasting times the 
walkie-talkies can of course be used for communication in between groups in the 
closer action radius.

During actions, news will be broadcasted by PMR radios every hours at 
approximatively xxh45 on channel 3.
