Hi Sylvain,
Cristobal Garcia (cgarciah at uc.cl) here at Pontificia Universidad Católica
de Chile is working with Peter Gloor (MIT) and graduate students to
understand the organization of the student movement in Chile. They track
the movement organizers' social media activity and information networks.

> Dear AIR-Community,
>
> about a year ago we published an anthology called 'Generation Facebook'.
> It contains ground-breaking theoretical papers and essays by leading
> international scholars such as Saskia Sassen, Geert Lovink and Mark
> Andrejevic. It is used widely in university teaching, received critical
> acclaim by the press and is deemed invaluable by media activists. So
> what's the catch? Right now, the book is only available in German.
>
> We think that this outstanding collection deserves an international
> audience. We also think that the contributions should be freely
> available in an Open Access format. Since we don?t have the means to
> make this happen all by ourselves, we decided to ask you (a.k.a ?the
> crowd?) for support to:
>
> a) cover the production costs for an Open Access version that is
> freely available right from the beginning.
>
> b) finance translations of texts that originally were contributed in
> German.
>
> If you think this is a project that is worth your attention (and maybe
> even your money), please take a look at our funding website:
>
> http://www.indiegogo.com/generation-facebook
>
> You can find more information about the German version on our German
> publisher?s website:
>
> http://www.transcript-verlag.de/ts1859/ts1859.php
>
> Please help us to spread the word and to turn this into a successful
> experiment; please forward this email to anyone potentially interested
> and any mailing lists you see fit.
>
> All the best,

> If you order 20+ copies for your class, you get a virtual lecture from

>
> We won't make much money on this: just a few bucks for lattes.
> But we believe strongly in Networked and wnat it to be read and discussed.

> After a while, we'll report back how this works out.
