>>Beaking the Frame Part 1:
>>Technology out of control? Drones, Killer Robots and the Arms Trade
>>
>>Remote controlled drones have already caused 
>>many civilian casualties in the 'war on 
>>terror', and people in the target zones and in 
>>Britain are campaigning against their use. But 
>>the military is moving towards letting 
>>battlefield 'killer robots' take their own 
>>decisions without human input. Should we allow 
>>computers to decide who lives and who 
>>dies?  Who is legally responsible for their 
>>actions? This first meeting in our 'Breaking 
>>the Frame' series on the politics of technology 
>>will address some of the ethical and 
>>'existential' issues raised by the march of 
>>technocracy. There will be plenty of time for 
>>informal discussion. See

>>Breaking the Frame: discussions on the politics of technology

>>organising a series of monthly events to look 
>>at the technology politics of food, energy, 
>>work, gender, war, the economy, health 
>>etc.  There will be speakers from campaigning 
>>groups and lots of time for discussion.  We are 
>>preparing for a 3-day gathering in May 2014 on these issues.

"The maintenance of secrets acts like a psychic poison which 
alienates the possessor from the community" Carl Jung

Fear not therefore: for there is nothing covered that shall not be 
revealed; and nothing hid that shall not be made known. What I tell 
you in darkness, that speak ye in the light and what ye hear in the 
ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. Matthew 10:26-27

Die Pride and Envie; Flesh, take the poor's advice.
Covetousnesse be gon: Come, Truth and Love arise.
Patience take the Crown; throw Anger out of dores:
Cast out Hypocrisie and Lust, which follows whores:
Then England sit in rest; Thy sorrows will have end;
Thy Sons will live in peace, and each will be a friend.
