Weekly independent poster of social centres activities

The last Infousurpa (?)

I've been in this city for 4 months making this (i think) very usefull tool to share information between social centres & having a way for people who walk throught the street to have a look on what's going on inside social centres. During this days I've never meet anyone that have said me that is not a good think to do, but from here to the responsability of believeing that anything that anyone do for the common is all ours is and other step.

The really reason for doing this was to find ways (this is only one possibility) to build up one sense of doing the things in common. But thrully I think that London doesn't wants to have this sense.

1) Many collectieves doesn't want to put their meetings in the poster (they are O.K. like they are now, or other excuses). For my meaning this help to build very personal and individualistic networks. What I want to say is that people who knows people in an other collective can make network with them, other people can't. As much open, as much information, much chance to democratice the network. And the network is what can make it grows.

2) Other people doesn't wants to go to LARC to take the poster. I've seen a lot of people going up & down with their leaflets from a social centre to and other. A common way should be trying to have a point and everyone can go one day a week to give and take what the other people do. But coordination is the most hardly thing in this city.

Why should in our collective talk about who is going to, and when to make network if only for internal things of the collective people doesn't talk about, JUST DO IT !!

3) Other people wants this only for inside the building, and then this idea becomes only a poster for activists people. What's the connection then with the rest of the world? Internet, activists pages are only visited by activist people, and the police.

If anyone thinks that wants to follow with this, I'm going to leave the files in LARC and the program as well. If someone wants to contact please call to 07717474607
