THANKS TO HARALD BINDL and MAKI and MONOROM, SILVAN, and ZAI, what a team.
and I guess it helped a lot we warmed up the whole containers with a faboulous breakfast lunch with xenia, hektor, tobias, sam und alicia, visiting from San Francisco, Berkeley.
Sam, what a data storage on your webpage - etoy.AGENTS, check that for our storage ideas!!!

Amilia, very warm welcome to etoy - and we are so happy to have you there!

it wouldn't be possible to finally focus on what is so important for etoy:
our etoy.SHARES.

we are very excited about being able to produce our core product
with your help, FRED and AMILIA.

we just donated. not as much as we would like to but at least a bit.  and of course we placed the link on the website.

Our long time friend, angel investor and advisor JOI ITO writes: "This year, we (at CC) have set a goal to raise $500,000 USD from our community during our annual fundraising campaign. Your support, however big or small, will help us sustain our core operations and keep our legal tools free for everyone to use. It will enable us to continue to level the digital playing field and harness the power of the Internet to be a force for good."

This year, more than ever before, it is vital that we all support choice and sharing online. Truly, everyone benefits from a free and open internet, and we have only just begun to see how beneficial a culture of sharing can be.

Alexander Klose's new book looks suuuper interesting and i wonder when i get a few days off to study the 320 pages in detail!

Dieses Buch ist überfällig und notwendig. Es entziffert unsere Kultur des 21. Jahrhunderts, eine Container- Kultur , deren Prinzipien unser alltägliches Schicksal bestimmen. (Joseph Vogl)

the book is based on Klose's dissertation. in 2005 fabio gramazio represented etoy in a conference organized by klose and volksbuehne berlin because i could not attend (still regret that so much).

get the book here for 20 euro

an english translation hopefully follows

INVITE: come and enjoy the etoy.TANKIMPLANT at binz, zurich, hidden on the terrasse in the arms of green thick shady trees, barbecuing and having a nice lazy chat. and you can visit the new urban experiment basislager, 120 containers with artists and chinese doctors and bike mechanics. we provide some drinks and salads, fire, friends, and please bring your meat! 

looking forward seeing you this sunday from 5 pm,
it's gonna be nice 22 degrees and sun.

hebeschiebetuer and big window for tank17 arrived from hungary today. etoy.TANK-PLANT BINZ is 0.75t more heavy. management wellnes level is expected to increase by 17.667%. etoy.STOCK went up 0.1% today. market is still open: place your bids!

MOST IMPORTANT: after another construction session next week (after the opening of the show IM ANFANG WAR DAS WORT / this sunday) we will be fully compatible with zurich's fire and rescue regulations.

etoy is gearing up for another research trip to italy. this time 7 etoy.AGENTS (monorom, silvan, tabea, maja, pol, alberto and zai) flying in from cambridge, berlin, zurich and basle will explore memory culture, loss and decay at pollinaria, an experimental biofarming project in the region called abruzzo. together with 20 workshop participants the MISSION ETERNITY ground crew plans to take the long term project a step further.

a part of the abruzzo was hit by a massive earthquake last month. the destructive aspect of nature and mans strategies to fight, resist, use, and cope with this strong forces will be of interrest for etoy.
