the olympic and paralympic games 2008 will take place in Beijing - China. Hopefully the fact that China is hosting the world's biggest sports Event will promote the debate on vital issues such as:
human and children rights, freedom of speech, the abduction of Gedhun Choekyi Nyima and the freedom of Tibet!

dropping knowledge goes Rostock / Heiligendamm: "G8 we are watching you"




From May 29 until June 10 it will take place the dropping knowledge summercamp. Here begins an experiment in alternative multimedia coverage and creative artistic expression: www.droppingknowledge.org/g8/

From Berlin to the Baltic Sea resort of Heiligendamm, where the leaders of the Group of 8 nations will convene from June 6-9, dropping knowledge will be on the trail of stories, questions and a multiplicity of views, capturing the culture and the counterculture of this year’s G8 summit.

"What’s Your Excuse for Not Changing the World?" is the question...

I am on my way to Rostock...are you too?

more news to come in the next days...

the dropping knowledge experience...

114 places at the first Table of Free Voices: two for the Question Moderators, Willem Dafoe and Hafsat Abiola, and 112 for the speakers answering the questions.

"On September 9, 2006, over 100 social visionaries from over 50 countries worldwide came together around a table in Berlin's historic Bebelplatz square. Over the course of nine hours, they responded on-camera to 100 questions donated to dropping knowledge by the global public.

The speakers at the Table came from the global North and the global South, from 56 countries. Protagonists in the fields of human rights and planet rights, corporate consciousness and ecological sustainability, cutting-edge science and age-old wisdom-traditions, the arts and the avant-garde, they joined together in a single circle on September 9 at a round-table gathering for the global information age".
