    * who teaches X?
        X=McKenzie Wark, Norbert Wiener, Ted Nelson, Alexander Bogdanov, ...

    * where to study outlandish inter/trans-disciplinary topics:
        complex systems, tektology, systems theory, ...

    * traverse interesting conferences/events/academics, and investigate where they come from
        CCC hacker events, HKW Campus, [...]

The New Centre’s aim is a constructivist one, to assemble an environment, both virtual and actual, that inspires our members to invent alternate understandings that can be put into collective practice."

Comment by X:
    "i think the problem is that there is not a bridge and link between people that are doing valuable research within institutes and academia and the massive public. I believe that there is no need to do MEDIA RESEARCH or PRESS research, but
there is a need  to think and reflect HOW to bridge the gap between people who watch television and people who are not obedient in terms of following the mass public opinion. I think this is the real challenge.
Why I am saying this? In AMsterdam I have done internship at the best globally leading research institute - TNI - but they didn't have the proper link in networking the wider public opinion within EU. I think if they could accomplish this, a lot would be done."

All the researchers, professors, writers, publishers, department heads, artists, curators, that comprises the Post-Colonial Academic Industrial Complex, who gain legitimacy and platform from endless papers explaining and righteously condemning the crimes of their ancestors, and who, for example, spend hours digging through colonial archives to choose some curiosity to make a research project or installation out of, living on grants from the likes of the Ford Foundation and their hydra-headed subsidiaries, are ultimately still feeding from the teats of colonialism and benefiting from its legacy.
