World Service: 100% Politics, Information, Debate, Dialogue
- perform in the ICA Bar from 10.30pm. Expect an eclectic selection
of global cultures, world politics, articles of faith and plenty of
attitude. Also Moshikop performs his
down-tempo 'hazy and monumental' album projects accompanied by live
multi woodwind and violin.

An evening of presentations, debate and networking with
OneWorld.net and Cybersalon discussing the uses and possibilities offered
up by the Internet and digital technologies for Non Governmental Organisations
(NGOs), campaigning groups and alternative news networks. From the use
of web sites as an information medium through to online campaigns and
digital video, new technologies are changing the way organisations and
campaigns operate.

The evening will highlight examples of digital innovation
and campaigning from Amnesty International, Friends of the Earth, OneWorld
TV and activists targeting the World Trade Organisation (WTO) from the
'Battle in Seattle' and since.

There'll also be a screening of a selection of independent
activist films including work from piratetv.net (a Ninjatune/Coldcut
project) <www.piratetv.net> and
two films by Earl Stanley and Code-E.
