Drawing from their experiences in the leftist and anarchist movements of the '80s, they built DIY networks that give us a glimpse into what internet culture could have been if it were in the hands of squatters, hackers, punks, artists, and activists. In the Dutch scene, the early internet was intimately tied to the aesthetics and politics of squatting. Untethered from profit motives, these artists and activists aimed to create a decentralized tool that would democratize culture and promote open and free exchange of information.Cities and cultures.Art and the InternetNetherlandsInternetSocial aspectsNetherlandsArt and the InternetInternetSocial aspects709.04Wasielewski Amanda1218526UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910554211603321From city space to cyberspace2817911UNINA
