The Temporary Autonomous Zone
Synopsis

Ever suspect there's more to life than what meets the eye? Or glance at art and wonder what inspired it? The Temporary Autonomous Zone (TAZ) concept is based on an anarchistic principle of freedom between the cracks of society. As the forerunning ethic behind the rave scene, various conventions, and events like Burning Man, it is highly relevant to understanding where the "hacker ethic" holds root.

Aestetix apparently gave a presentation about Temporary Autonomous Zones.

As I just finished reading the assorted essays of Hakim Bey (and am developing the strange PT desire to blow up a TV tower...) it will be cool to discuss this with him at Phreaknic. Tom also some some insight, with some pretty cool stories about TAZsque commerce zones in the slums of Hong Kong.
