The New Year at Maelstrom

Mae L Strom | 02.01.2005 14:07 | Ecology | Free Spaces | Social Struggles

Events in the New Year at Maelstrom squatted infospace, The Old Post Office, Hyde Park Corner in Leeds, West yorkshire

Hi there!

Well, 3 months on, Maelstrom, the squatted infoshop in the Old Post Office at Hyde Park Corner, Leeds LS6 is still here.... so we're planning more events for the new year.

And by the way, If anyone needs meeting space or has any ideas for events, then feel free to drop in and check when the space is free or email us at  maelstromers@yahoo.com.

REBEL ALLIANCE at 6pm, FRI 14 JAN followed by RECORDED DELIVERY at 9pm

An evening to get together people from all over leeds and yorkshire who do radical, DIY stuff to announce future events or just let people know what they do and about any plans for the new year as well as an opportunity to strengthen or forge alliances and get involved in any upcoming stuff!

We ask that the groups and individuals that want to come are involved in or would like to be involved in anti-hierarchical/diy/anti-capitalist/anti-authority/ecological/confrontational stuff - not political party stuff, although of course you are welcome to come as an individual even if you are otherwise involved in traditional party politics

please tell anyone you think might be interested. if you are coming as part of a group take the chance to discuss with the rest of your group first about what you want to say about your group.

and at 9pm on that nite we are having a "play your own records" session, so bring some music along.

see you there.x

REGULAR READING GROUP

Every Tuesday night at 7.30pm, Maelstrom hosts a reading group. The first few texts for the New Year have been decided, but please feel free to come along and suggest any pamphlets or essays you think are interesting. So far we have discussed Moments of Excess by Leeds Mayday Goup, Beasts of Burden, Armed Joy by Alfredo Bonnano, Against the Corpse Machine by Ashen Ruins, You Can't Rent Your Way Out of a Social Relationship by Rogue Element.. and Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll!

Jan 4 Nihilism and Anarchy in the 21st Century
Jan 11 Barbaric Thoughts

Feb 22 Civilisation and it's discontents by Sigmund Freud

You can usually get copies of the reading from Maelstrom or you can get them off the interweb!

OTHER EVENTS IN 2005
