The economic motivations and incredible hypocrisy of both men are also similsr.

FREE? WHY?

17-07-2004 09:41

Almost everyday (except when it has been raining or threatening to rain) there has been a publically accessable freeshop placed on the pavement outside the rampART. Consisting of a clothes rail, shelfs and a couple of boxes, the freeshop contains mostly clothes, shoes, bags and books. The following text is a modified version of an essay about freeshops taken from Eurodusnie (see  http://squat.net/eurodusnie/english/shop.htm). We plan to produce a leaflet from this text to be placed with the freeshop. We've made the text none project specific so that it could be used at other projects.

Please feel free to comment on the text and discuss the concept further, as we would like to improve the text before goin ahead and producing the leaflet.
