Please help build a Web Archive of the Sept 11 Attack
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Internet Archive in collaboration with Alexa Internet, and SUNY, Library
of Congress and UWashington is archiving pages and sites relating to the
terrorist attacks in the NY and DC. Where we are archiving sites and pages
all the time, we are concentrating the crawlers to make sure there is a
solid historical record of this time.
If you would like to help, we can build a better archive. Here is how you
can help:
Suggest sites and pages to archive:
* This can be done by sending URL's to attackarchive@alexa.com
(this is a list of the crawl engineers at Alexa and the researchers at SUNY
and UW)
* Surf with the free Alexa Toolbar on. Every night new sites and
pages are discovered by
processing the day's usage logs from the Alexa Toolbar. These are sanitized
to eliminate cgi and other URL's that might contain personal information and
then those sites are crawled for the archive.
Help build a page in mid-October that will help guide people through
relevant materials. This could be similar to the Election 2000 webpage
(http://archive.alexa.com), or something else completely. We would like to
make this public at the end of October or early November.
Datamine the web archive to find past pages and sites that might be
relevant. This takes programming skill and will be more difficult for
Alexa to support, but if you are interested, please write a proposal in the
web section of the www.archive.org site.
Thank you. Please repost, but don't spam.

After the horror bombings in New York and Washington
RALLY FOR PEACE
No to retaliation; No to war; No to racism!
Thursday 20 Sept, 12.30-1.30pm, Garema Place Civic Canberra
Speakers include: Gary Corr, ACT Greens Michael Denborough, Nuclear
Disarmament Party Sue Harris Bishop Pat Power Jeremy Pyner, Secretary, ACT
Trades and Labour Council Refugee Action Committee Dr Sandy Santmyers, ACT
Multicultural Council Socialist Alliance Sue Wareham, Medical Association
for the Prevention of War Women's International League for Peace and
Freedom
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
The bombings in America are awful. But war and military action are no
solution: they simply mean more death, more destruction, more hatred,
more refugees. We need international social justice, not revenge. We need
to keep Australia from being involved in any military adventure. We need
to stand up against the racist abuse being inflicted on Muslim people
around Australia, including in Canberra. And we need to stop the federal
government using the American crisis to justify locking up refugees.

Web Archive of the Sept 11 Attack - Update
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Internet Archive in collaboration with Alexa Internet, and SUNY, Library
of Congress and UWashington is archiving pages and sites relating to the
terrorist attacks in the NY and DC.
We'd like to draw your attention to some tools just developed that
facilitate this very important work: we have very quickly put together a
*very simple* site with some easy-to-use tools: http://webarchivist.org.
If you're interested, visit http://www.webarchivist.org, and follow the
(hopefully) simple directions. What we ask is that you click on a special
link (that you install on your browser) whenever you visit a site that you
think should be archived. Clicking on the link alerts our system to archive
that site that day.
If you're up for it, you can also get a tool that allows you to fill out a
3-question "site coding sheet", identifying the type of site producer, the
kinds of activities available on the site, and an open-ended assessment of
the site.
Of course, if you'd rather, continue to send lists of links to
attackarchive@alexa.com.
And, please, any comments or suggestions on how to identify relevant
sites -- send them along!
Thanks,
Steve Schneider (SUNY Institute of Technology) - steve@sunyit.edu

Subject: pls forward: SEPT 11 PROJECT Town Hall Meeting
911--THE SEPTEMBER 11 PROJECT: CULTURAL INTERVENTION IN CIVIC SOCIETY
OPEN TOWN HALL MEETING, SCHOOL OF VISUAL ARTS, MONDAY, OCTOBER 1, 209 E.
23rd St., 8 pm
Artists/cultural workers are knowledge makers and engaged citizens. They are
experts at creatively utilizing their hybrid skills to reach numerous
audiences‹from school children and people on the street, to gallery-goers
and far-flung electronic audiences‹with meaningful "messages" ranging from
healing images and narratives to analyses of mass-media imagery and
manipulation. The traditional view of art¹s potential in this crisis was
expressed in the New York Times of September 17, in which the pleasures of
art were described as "comfort, replenishment, beauty," the museum "as a
calm haven from devastating events," and the future direction of public art
as a return to the memorial, and a turning away from the "humorous or
ironic." All of these observations are apt, but reinforce the notion of
contemporary art¹s remove from daily life. In a time of crisis, they are too
limited.
Members of arts community(s) want to do more. This includes reaching out to
the citizenry of New York with short-term aid (the American branch of the
International Art Critics¹ Association worked with MoMA to post a crisis
board on its website http://www.aicausa.org), opening up avenues of
expression for discussion of hasty military/political action and the
conditions that encourage terrorism (petition campaigns are circulating),
offering emotional solace and intellectual engagement through art and other
programming (already one-off and ongoing art projects have emerged), and
creating a community of concern about issues that extend beyond the
mainstream gallery-museum nexus. In a monolithic media culture, it is
imperative that more diverse voices be heard.
The SEPTEMBER 11 PROJECT is a response to an emergency that is designed to
be open-ended and evolving. Its art-world predecessors include the
pedagogical impulses of Joseph Beuys manifested in the Free University, the
collaboratively-oriented, "think-tanking" approach of facilities such as
Carnegie-Mellon¹s Studio for Creative Inquiry or MIT¹s Center for Advanced
Visual Studies, and the political engagement of the Art Workers¹ Coalition,
PADD (Political Art Documentation and Distribution) and Artists Call Against
US Intervention in Central America. Perhaps more to the point in our
networked era are the activities of Visual AIDS, which functioned as a
volunteer-run umbrella organization, information hub and presenter. But the
past can only suggest possible strategies for responding to a condition‹in
civic life and the culture-at-large‹that is unprecedented. The 911‹THE
SEPTEMBER 11 PROJECT intends to work first with New York arts and media arts
organizations as an electronic clearinghouse (see http://rhizome.org/911 for
current information), a presenter of exhibitions and programs with
affiliated organizations, a space for cultural workers to communicate and
find collaborators.
An open, town hall meeting will be held Monday, October 1st at the School
of Visual Arts, 209 E. 23rd St, at 8 pm. Bring your ideas, projects,
concerns.

Subject: Petition for Peace
Petition For Peace
What follows is a petition that will be forwarded to President Bush,
and other world leaders, urging them to avoid war as a response to the
terrorist attacks against the World Trade Center and the Pentagon
this week. Please read it, sign below, and forward the link to as many
people as
possible, as quickly as possible. We must circulate this quickly if it is
to have
any effect at all, as the Congress of The United States has already passed
a resolution supporting any military action President Bush deems
appropriate.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of the United States of
America and of countries around the world, appeal to the President
of The United States, George W. Bush; to the NATO Secretary General,
Lord Robertson; to the President of the European Union, Romano
Prodi; and to all leaders internationally to use moderation and
restraint in responding to the recent terrorist attacks against the
United States. We implore the powers that be to use, wherever
possible, international judicial institutions and international human
rights law
to bring to justice those responsible for the attacks, rather than the
instruments of war,
violence or destruction. Furthermore, we assert that the government of a nation
must be presumed separate and distinct from any terrorist group that
may operate within its borders, and therefore cannot be held unduly
accountable for the latter's crimes. It follows that the government
of a particular nation should not be condemned for the recent attack
without compelling evidence of its cooperation and complicity with those
individuals who actually committed the crimes in question.
Innocent civilians living within any nation that may be found
responsible, in part or in full, for the crimes recently perpetrated
against the United States, must not bear any responsibility for the
actions of their government, and must therefore be guaranteed safety
and immunity from any military or judicial action taken against the
state in which they reside.Lastly and most emphatically, we demand
that there be no recourse to nuclear, chemical or biological
weapons, or any weapons of indiscriminate destruction, and feel that
it is our inalienable human right to live in a world free of such arms.
