Here it is, an open portal for artists and their presentation.
I have made a portal based on wiki concept but with the easier interface. Self promotion of artist who have just started his/her carrier is really important, and because there is not such a space, not speaking of Myspace, Flicker and other commercial sites ;) the weebit.info site rise up. Weebit.info unlike wikipedia let anyone make his/her online self-presentation.
Weebit.info is completely free (if you like to donate you are welcome). The secondary aim is to make something like a database of artists who are not on the top-list at least not now. I think many of non-top-list artist are doing grate job and so it’s worthy find some informations of them and their work, and the best find them all in one place. The portal is open, so not only artists them selfs can make their presentation, but some willing guy can make it just because he/she thinks it might be interesting for someone to see.

If you like irrational music as I do, you’ll love them, they are f… crazyyyy, their music almost broke my speakers, awesome, I just love them.
Hope they will come Europe as well… if you know when, please let me know.

7.15AM Pardubice (Czech republic) Fakulta chemicko – technologická UP Pardubice,nám. Čs. Legií 565

nobody knows that anything has to happen today,  or at least not the nanoSKOP, or anything else with the word nano in the name.

7.45 same place, sitting with couple people close to the main lecture hall waiting for the upcoming electron microscope presentation :)
Luckily one of newcomers has the organisers  phone number, so we get the actual address where all supposed to start. We all woke up and headed to the new given address believed we wont miss anything interesting. When we reached the destination even there nobody knows anything has to happen. Then one really kind woman point us to the new center of the faculty.

Pretty nice building, You know the pure totally empty like from the architecture blueprint, no people just glass and concrete, which was bit weird but still seams to be the right place. After we bypassed the whole building we saw couple workers went in. Hey this isn’t the right place, no other people then workers only the pure space.
I like the combination of red and green glass with black lines  on edges of the building…. I later spoke with Adolf A.K.A. Fantomas about this building and he explained to me a probably better concept that supposed to stay there but the concept was rejected by the city.

….couple other mistakes, phone calls and we found the right room with researchers waiting on us ;)

9.00 AM – Electro microscope
The E. microscope is bit funny thing. They make a vacuum, because they don’t want to shoot the air atoms. If you are lucky enough and you know how to operate with that sophisticated tool you get a nice pictures, those you know from all books of nano-technology, great beginning of the day. (more…)

Hello You who are not passive to the shared knowledge and the critical Internet thoughts. Help me out with the new article a have been started on en.wikipedia. I think this theme deserve to be evolved and practise as well.
Help me out with this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NET_GRAFFITI

don’t wary this is not self promoting action ;) I’m not involved in this even though I would love to.

Wikipedia watchdogs totally sucks :(…  they deleted the page not to give it chance to exist an hour. This is a perfect example of their ignorance. If you think as I do that this has to come up again, create it again. Here is the content I have posted there as the cornerstone:

NET GRAFFITI is a new digital [[Graffiti]] phenomenon spreading all over the Internet.

==Attitude==
The NET GRAFFITI tries to continue in the ideological line of street graffiti and it’s attitude of self expression without borders. The Internet is not academic field anymore. More and more people spend many ours in the virtual space and it becomes their natural space as like streets in their neighborhood are. With the space change the attitude stays still. Digital sprayers constantly feels the inner want of self expression and want to change the world for their needs.
==Digital stickers==
The [http://www.myspace.com/netgraffiti LEN M.] group following the hacker style found a way how to embed their mainly political graphics to the digital world. A like classical graffiti “burnish” brick or concrete wall manipulates with posters or else advertisements, the NET GRAFFITI manipulates with the freely available digital material. They re-use already illegal material shared by the P2P network (such as [[torrent]], [[e-mule]] etc.) and changed particular part for their needs. As a target for such a contribution are chosen hacked programs or movies consumed by millions end users everyday. This material gives even much stronger basement for the net artists then the regular streets. By such a manipulation with high end editing tools (in some cases hacked as well) they can change the source material in the way that common user or else people who haven’t seen the original piece cannot recognize the difference and the manipulated content becomes in the eye of spectator the “unaffacted” and the only work.
In some cases especially speaking of manipulated programs the idea is explicit and even shocking.

27.-30.12.2008 Berlin Chaos Computer Club
Nothing to hide, 25th Chaos Communication Congress (25C3)

When Steve Kurtz, professor of University at Buffalo, The State University of New York, former professor of art on the Carnegie Mellon University in May 2004 found his wife dead (she died due to the hearth failure) he called the police. The police consequently went through his house and found among others petri dishes prepared for the upcoming exhibition of GMO agriculture, they contacted FBI and Steve was charged with bioterrorism. In 2007 approximately 150 people committed so called “civil disobedience” and destroyed field with about hectare of genetically modified corn, which lies by the way in “GMO Free Zone”. This action was declared by the government as criminal and terroristic act. The temperature of our planet unfairly raises high. One search request on Google eats as equal amount of energy as 11 Watt bulb per hour whereas produce 6.8 grams of CO2. Opencard with integrated RFID supposed to simplify our life in the city. But this technology can be used and surely will to track people down by those who own the technology and those who are interested enough to get those data for their needs.
Nicholas Rockefeller on the line with Aeron Russo:
N.R.: “..by having this war on terror, you can never win it…so you can always keep taking people’s liberties away..the media can convince everybody that it’s real”
A.R.: “What are you doing this for?”
N.R.: “the goal is to get everybody in the world chipped with an RFID chip…and have all the money behind those chips and everything on those chips and when anybody wants to protest what we do or what we want, we just turn off the chip”

Internet is an open medium but few exceptions, the censorship in the China, Germany … The great problem is particularly its transparentness. Everyone can get the information of someone else without him noticing. For example in Brazil hijackers search for needed information on Myspace, Facebook, Youtube and so forth. Even on the Prague Cyber 2008 conference on cyberterrorism hold by the Ministry of the interior of the Czech republic admitted that the FBI and Czech police too use social networks to get information about suspects. Not only hackers try to keep hiding their identity. Although the privacy right is essential cornerstone in civil rights during the Cyber 2008 conference come out the opinion that anybody who tries to hide him/her self is a hacker and considered as a cyber terrorist. Why anyone needs to hide his/her identity if he/she is not engaged in something illegal? The question of privacy solves hacker not only hiding him/her self behind someone else’s identity but they also create programs such as Tor (http://www.torproject.org/). By using Tor common user can surf the Internet with no traces and can send, receive or share his own data anonymously. The Mailinator (http://mailinator.com) lets user create an temporary email whereas registration is not required. The security question was present throughout the whole Berlin conference. Hackers in cooperation with scientists used 200 Playstations 3 (coupled in cluster) and during days of the 25C3 conference creates out of common SSL certificate working CA certificate. Thanks to this CA certification can be further created new legitimate certificate and consequently used as a verified certificate for money transactions.

Based on the common widely spread picture of the hacker we could treat him/her as a person without soul trying to get somewhere where he/she has no obligations ideally exercising robbery. On the contrary hacker seams to be critical thinking looking for the possible solution for his “homeland” virtual world and for his planet he/she lives on as well. Seams like there is a link among hackers and artists, both have critical sight and slight consciousness of technological impact on human and the earth. This trend can be seen again in Berlin and it’s Transmediale or in Linz on ARS Electronica. Whilst in the art world still prevail non critical fascination of technology, the hacker world already (sort of) understands that this world is not just a fancy toy.

If you like to read the Czech version (bit truncated thought) buy new No. of Flashart(cz)..I guess it’ll be printed out on the beginning of February 2009.
