September 14-16 we, the folks from Monteparadiso Hacklab and Multimedia
Institute, are organizing a hacker camp at the former military complex
Karlo Rojc in Pula (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Istria). We want to
bring together you, hackers from the Eastern Europe, Western Europe and
all over the globe, in an informal setting to present their work,
workshop, share skills and debate socio-political issues related to
hacking. Issues such as:

* politics of hacking
* hacker autonomy vs. money
* hacker identities
* different histories of hacking in the east and the west
* illegal activities & piracy

The meeting will be organized around self-proposed, free style afternoon
sessions and more structured evening debates. There will however be time
to spend time in casual hang-outs and enjoy the time at the beach.

accommodation we can offer to participants. There will be plenty of
space at the site to set up own tent and cheap accommodation in Pula is
readily available. For more information on how to get to Pula and the
