Anargeek-manifestet er et forsøg i at kombinere anarkisme med hackerfilosofi.
+
Hi!,
 
+
Det oprindelige manifest kommer fra [[ http://www.anargeek.net | Anargeek.net ]]. Så dette skal oversættes til dansk.
+
 
+
Og jeg (valberg[at]anarcho.dk) har en idé, eller en drøm, om at lave et såkaldt anarnørd kollektiv i DK. Et kollektiv som laver IT til danmarks anarkister. Så kontakt mig gerne !

<p>I am an anargeek. An anarchogeek. An anarchist and a geek, among others.</p>
+
<p>Jeg er en anarnørd. En anarchonørd. En anarkist og en nørd, blandt andre.</p>

'''[EN]:''' I'm a geek, because I can be considered part of those who like to use,
+
understand and alter those weird machines we call computers.
+
 
+
'''[DK]:''' Jeg er en nørd, fordi jeg kan blive opfattet som en af dem som godt kan lide at bruge,
+
forstå og ændre disse underlige maskiner vi kalder computere.
+
 
+
'''[EN]:''' I'm a geek, then, because I am curious about the way they function. I
+
wonder about what to do with their programs. And I feel excited,
+
sometimes, by some of those uses that have not yet been explored or
+
thought of.
+
 
+
'''[DK]:''' Så jeg er en nørd, fordi jeg er interesseret i hvorledes de virker.
+
Tænker på hvad jeg skal gøre med deres programmer. Og jeg bliver spændt, nogle gange,
+
over funktioner og måder at bruge dem på som ikke er blevet udforsket eller tænkt på.
+
 
+
'''[EN]:''' I'm a geek, because these machines are part of my daily life. I use them
+
as clocks, as sound devices, as libraries, as typewriters, as coffee
+
machines, as phones or memorandums. But on top of all, they're wide
+
playgrounds. A support for communication, discoveries, creativity.
+
 
+
'''[DK]:''' Jeg er en nørd, fordi disse maskiner er en del af mit daglige liv. Jeg bruger dem
+
som klokker, som lydapparater, som biblioteker, som skrivemaskiner, som kaffe maskiner, som telefoner og notater.
+
 
+
'''[EN]:''' I'm a geek, also because I have embedded digital communication at some
+
point. Almost everyday, if not many times a day, I do read my e-mail,
+
administrate some Internet servers, look after the network I'm sharing,
+
inform myself, learn and exchange through forums, mailing-lists and
+
miscellaneous websites, chat and meet through IRC.
+
 
+
'''[DK]:''' Jeg er også en nørd, fordi jeg bruger digital kommunkation på et eller andet punkt. Næsten hver dag, om ikke mange gange om dagen. Jeg læger min e-mail, administrerer servere, holder øje med det netværk jeg deler, informerer mig selv, lærer og deler via fora, mailing-lister og forskellige websider, char og møder via IRC.
+
 
+
'''[EN]:''' I'm a geek, still, because I like the term. It has first been an insult.
+
But then, it's been reclaimed by those it mentions, turned positive and
+
set the roots for a community, as some other "cultural minorities" did.
+
 
+
'''[DK]:''' Jeg er stadig en nørd, fordi jeg kan lide udtrykket. Det var i starten en fornærmelse.
+
Men så, blev det taget af dem som det omtaler, vendt til det positive og plantet rødderne for
+
et community, som mange andre "kulturelle minioriteter" har gjort.

+
<p>I'm an anarchist, because I reject a society that's based upon
+
domination. I'm convinced that self-empowerment and mutual respect are
+
not only possible together and desirable, but that they can be achieved
+
through equality, solidarity and self-management.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anarchist, then, because I am outraged by those social structures
+
which cause mass exploitation, sufferings and deaths on a permanent
+
basis. I want to contribute in putting this system down, by
+
participating in social struggles and being involved in radical
+
grassroots collectives.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anarchist, because I see my daily life as an opportunity to
+
experiment my principles. I'm willing to break with social norms, by
+
refusing calls to consumption and competition; reject alienation, by
+
deconstructing oppressive &amp; dominant behaviours, by developing
+
collective &amp; egalitarian alternatives.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anarchist, also because I tend to feel skeptical towards
+
"official" information, I want to be critical towards mainstream and
+
institutionnal media, since they format our vision with omissions, lies
+
and misinformation. Rejecting self-proclaimed objectivity, I'm seeking
+
for other means of informing and educating myself, for alternative tools
+
to generate and spread the news.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anarchist, still, because I stand against the paranoia that
+
seizes society, thanks to the manipulation of peoples' fears. I refuse
+
the criminalisation, personal data collection and repression processes
+
which are being launched by authorities against the poor, lower class
+
and activists. Needless to say we have to resist.</p>
+
 
+
<p class="separator">· · ·</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anargeek, because I'm willing to bring together technological
+
creativity and computer know-how with ethical considerations and
+
political practices. While thought provides practice with meaning and
+
direction, practice enhances thought and offers ideas a concrete
+
expression.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anargeek, then, because I wish to live in a society based upon
+
self-determination, free cooperation and collective intelligence. Thus I
+
endorse the free software movement, which comes as the result of the
+
worldwide volunteer collaboration of thousands, allowing anyone not only
+
to share and understand, but also to modify and distribute computer
+
programs.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anargeek, because I refuse to be enslaved by either a political
+
system or a computer system. While states impose laws upon citizens,
+
proprietary software force standards upon users. While authorities
+
prevent agitation through repression, the companies attempt to kill
+
alternatives through patents. I want to be able to self-manage my life,
+
just as I want to be able to understand, modify or create the tools I
+
use.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anargeek, also because I want to resist the never-ending
+
consumption enforced by capitalism, that keeps on producing goods,
+
throwing away and wasting resources, while manipulating peoples' minds,
+
always. I recycle hardware that's considered obsolete, re-animate it
+
with spare parts, liberate it with free software. I like reaching the
+
limits of out-dated machines, creating rather than consuming, in an
+
attempt to mix imagination and politics altogether.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anargeek, because I feel the need to disrupt some attitudes that
+
stick to the communities I'm involved with. I wish the radical-left
+
political and alternative computer cultures to get to know each other
+
for a number of reasons: it is essential to challenge the strong sexist
+
culture that lies within geekism and to critically assess the high
+
specialisation that goes with computer science, as it is necessary to
+
have militant movements understand digital potentials.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anargeek, also because computing happens to be an excellent
+
medium for producing and spreading independent information. So do I
+
participate to counter-information networks such as Indymedia: an
+
autonomous media that is spread around the world and open to all, that
+
breaks the borders between actors/spectators/journalists and raises
+
issues mainstream media cautiously ignore or disinform about.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I am an anargeek, because I don't want to stay dumb, a know-nothing;
+
or refuse to learn more, a know-everything. I want to remain open
+
towards knowledge, learn and teach, share &amp; discover skills I've
+
never heard of, look beyond the rim of my teacup. I refuse to adhere to
+
the traditional hierarchy which pretends that elders and superiors know
+
better in any field of endeavour, just because they are older.</p>
+
 
+
<p>I'm an anargeek, still, because if computers do facilitate social
+
control and domination, I do believe they can also be used as
+
instruments of self-empowerment, communication and sedition.  Since
+
knowledge is more useful when shared rather than kept to oneself, I
+
participate in skill-sharing workshops, or get involved in setting up
+
collective non-commercial tools and "services" such as autonomous
+
servers, free Internet access points, websites or hardware solidarity
+
projects...</p>
+
 
+
<p class="separator">· · ·</p>
+
 
+
<p>This "manifesto" does not aim at speaking up for you. You're free to
+
partly adopt it, fully endorse it, totally reject it. And because
+
there's just as many anargeeks as individuals, I encourage everyone to
+
write and execute her/his manifesto, experiment his/her ideas, draw her
+
graffiti or his ASCII!</p>
+
 
+
<p>Starification, leadership and passivity? No thanks! Everyone can invent
+
and re-program him/herself!</p>

<p><b>Translation note:</b> <i>anargeek</i> stands for <i>anarchogeek</i>.
+
While <i>anargeek</i> is not very verbose in English, it instantly makes sense
+
in French, provided the reader knows about the terms <i>anarchist</i> and
+
 
+
 
+
<i>geek</i> (<i>anar</i> being short for <i>anarchist</i>). Since
+
<i>anarchogeek</i> is already known as a blog (rabble's, from Indymedia - <a

kept.</p>
