di-fusion: an embodiment of network praxis

di-fusion: a live & online open-platform TAZ/happening for creative expression and action. the happening will simultaneously occupy global network spaces and a local physical space with collaborative performance, sonic, music, DJ/VJ, text, poetry, and video events. we will be streaming audio and video during the entire 24 hours as well as hosting a variety of local and remote activities. several global locations will be networked with us as well. as global media and networks become increasingly colonized by institutional entities, the space remaining for open creative collaboration and exchange shrinks. productive spaces must be preserved and expanded. di-fusion directly addresses this issue at the human and community level by moving the lead role from technology back to the human element. di-fusion is about constructing a human network-of-practice that acts as an inspiring and creative source for all participants.
