This has been around for a while now, but media seems to be slowly reporting on this. It is one of the more fascinating social developments in our current world, one that - I think- will radically alter peoples autonomy. I have asked my Chinese students about this, - they did not know anything about this development.

The newest of the arguments that make the case we should be using independent and autonomous social networks like the one on memefest.org!

I remember Memefest 2014, here in Melbourne.
Our theme was Dialogue, more precisely "Radical Intimacies: Dialogue in our Times". Giving my lecture at the symposium I was explaining how much effort we were putting into programming and designing an autonomous online social network on memefest.org and how funny and sad it is that so many artists, activists etc. actually use pretty much exclusively Facebook to network and self promote. What we could observe back than was a strong indicator or what is happening now. Facebook is not a place for non profits, activists, artists groups, because our outreach is dictated by how much we are willing to pay. Not paying for our posts on FB simply means our reach will be super small, like 3 % of our following on a FB page. It is very important to understand this. Memefest is a free for all social network, no surveillance, no data mining, no advertising, no payment, and a community that is actually reading the posts, not just scanning and linking them. So lets keep on being active here and nurture this space, and make use of it!

Read about the ZAD, the largest squat on Europe, in the Guardian article bellow. After years of successfully defending the ZAD from the French authorities a new wave of threatening eviction is under way.
"The story of “la ZAD” in western France began more than half a century ago, when the French government earmarked the site for a new airport as part of a plan to create a transatlantic “Great West” gateway to France and Europe.
Years of consultations, arguments and indecision supposedly ended in 2008, when the €580 million project was given official approval. The squatters began arriving the same year, claiming they were responding to an appeal from farmers fighting compulsory purchase orders. No airport-related construction has since taken place on the 1,650-hectare site."

Description
Martin Petrič, (Postojna 1983)
Visual designer, illustrator and visual artist concentrated on practicing and exploring traditonal and contemporary techniques in art and bringing them to public. Visual thinker and responsible communication ambasador, always opening new connections between artists and educators. I have created a link between education and conventional and alternative practices and theories trough curating Vajkard workshop in collaboration with my mentor Zdravko Papič, Academy of fine arts in Ljubljana and others. My work is dedicated to exploring individual creativity and diversification of visual languages. I am working in Art, Design and Education fields for more than 15 years.
I have joined the Memfest community becasue i am interested in
Collaboration with interesting people.
Always searching for new forms of visual "poetry" in different media, i do not confine my work on any specific style or media, in fact, I try to conscously avoid developing any visible styles of my work, which i know is near to impossible. But i like to think this helps me to explore visual affinities of diverse cultural or market oriented groups, movements or entities. This all derives from my will to try to understand the contexts of visual languages different cultures use, and consequently, i try to understand each visual culture and it's powers.
