Incommunicado.05<\/a> was a two-day working conference (15\/06 – 17\/06) working towards a critical survey of the current state of ‘info-development’, also known as ‘ICT4D’ (ICT for development). The subtitle to the conference said it all: “Information Technology for everybody else…”<\/i> “Instead, a more complex map of actors, networked in a global info-politics, is emerging.”<\/i><\/p>\n

\nThis conference was organised by the Institute of Network Cultures<\/a> and the research netwok Incommunicado<\/a>. It was in first instance a reaction against the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) which lacked a critique of the too narrow concept of the ‘Digital Divide’. <\/p>\n
