Genoa, July 2001. 300.000 people were on the streets against the G8. For three days the capital of Liguria was scene for a collective dream: an other world is possible, the slogan that puts together even very different individual paths. The murder of Carlo Giuliani and the violences in the police stations, in the hospitals and on the streets stages the other side of Genoa: a collective nightmare - which is difficult to get over.
Three years later, Indymedia Italy, network for independent communication launches a project to collect signs, traces and memory of the G8 in Genoa. A space to recover and to enhance what was produced during and after July 2001. An excuse to tell what we saw, thought and felt.
Literature and art from a pen, a keyboard, a felt tip.
Radio and newspapers, web-sites and videos, songs and comic strips. Diaries and stories, novels and freaks. Stories from direct experiences. Pieces of life and movement. Personal images. Fragments of memory from the dream or from the nightmare of the G8 in Genoa.
Memory is a collective gear. Let it work!
The multimedia stuff, that will be collected through the "G8-ink" project will be published and enhanced as documentary stuff ans artistic and political evidence.
