U-topia = Lack of proper place. For us in a prospect of action, it means “ being everywhere at the same time”.
also means : being numerous but no masses ! It further means cultural diversity !
To demonstrate that we represent an important part of the population, that we can be your neighbours, your friends, your family …
Which way to go ?
If we knew that, we would be worst than politicians : we would be common crowd manipulators. We bloody have no idea of the « right » way to go ! And it’s OK so… Just what we know is that our society has a terrible lack of social link, confidence, emergence, reflection, meeting and inventiveness
word up!
j’ai respect complete pour vos idees
bring on the night of the night of the packs:D
Thanks a lot ! If you know english activists, sound systems or artists that could be interested in participate, in UK, you know the url : http://nuitdesmeutes.ouvaton.org
What we need now is to know, broadly, who intend to do something for this night, and where (no need to say exactly where, of course). So, it would be useful to go to our forum and to post just little words (there’s an english speaking thread, for all the international informations and discussions about the Night) :

Bye !
i remember years ago when free parties used to be organised in my home town of dumfries.they were totaly bangin,excellent sound systems run from diesel generators and i dont know where the guys got the lighting systems from but they were out of this world,roboscans ,moonflowers terrastrobes u.v lights and anything else you could think of.but these days its becoming alot harder to find suitable venues that are not fire risks cause the safety of the party-goer is first and foremost.
Thats wicked folks! Good to c sum cross channel communication.
I agree with the small is beautiful thing – we ahve been running a rig for 3 summers now and generally have between 200- 400 at our parties. Gotta say i dont particulary want them to get much bigger – we have got to the point now where we dont ahve to worry much abt getting enough peeps have a hard to shut down and friendly, buzzing party.
Only done a few multiriggers, and whilst we will be looking to get to a moot or teknival in Uk nxt summer, am yet to be convinced that they are sustainable really – there seem ot be so many rigs that obsessed with being the loudest thing ever, and when u put 10 or more of them in a field in this tiny country we live in, u are bound to piss a lot of pple off. Even if the party gets away with running all w/end due to its size, it will surely only make it harder to do the next year, and the next, and only makes it more likely that govt. will pass ever more repressive laws – might start getting very hairy going to big parties once we all have ID cards, satellite road toll charging etc
Puzzled tho why Labour has taken such a tough line on free parties tho – tightening up CJA and ASOB thing – didnt think there was enough national media hysteria recently abt parties to goad them into action? Might be wrong tho..? Whatever the case, i am so dissillusioned with ‘New labour’ it is unreal – fucking worse than the tories – IMPEACH BLIAR!!! (i say)
There isn’t that much hysteria about parties,it’s just that they get lumped in with any anti-social bill. Teknivals r ok,except 4 the rigs that use the area regularly. Plus with all the rigs in one place it makes it easier to police. What d’u reckon’s better 20 rigs in 1 field,or the same spread all over the county?
…and it don’t matter which party is in government-they all stink. vote loony party-that’ll sort it out.
So, did something happened in Uk for this night of the packs ? Here in France hundreds of parties took place. We try to make a global report, so any information about this night will be useful. thanks !
bye
