Hacktivism in the Context of Art and Media in Italy
The project hack.it.art at Kunstraum Kreuzberg/Bethanien is an exhibition and event about technological, artistic and political activism in Italy.
FLxER Team, with Nikky (deliriouniversale) and Francesco Warbear Macarone Palmieri (phag-off) will offer a performance during the opening.
In Italy, technological, artistic and political activism is closely interconnected, in a common network spread over the whole country, and consisting of collectives, activists and artists alike.
Their common denominator is to give life to an alternative and independent way of producing information, cultural consciousness and communication.
In a specific way, the correct meaning for this network of practices is the word "hacktivism".
Hacktivism is the fusion of hacking and activism, technology and political action. Hacktivism is a rhizomatic, open source phenomenon. According to this point of view, hackers are not just those who destructively intrude into computer systems (and who should be more correctly called "crackers"), but those who share the good of knowledge, who fight for free communication and access for all, aiming to create and spread knowledge for the public domain.
