Art + Politics + P2P

This presentation introduces the work of the Foundation for Peer-to-Peer Alternatives – a clearing house for open/free, participatory/p2p and commons-oriented initiatives. The focus of interest is in how P2P networks challenge hierarchical server-client relations and provide an alternative organisational principle for understanding cultural production and the creation of value.

The aim of the evening is to explore the potential this way of thinking may have in re-energising the production of art following the principle that emergent and radical arts practices can be found in social energies not yet recognised as art.
