<h3>INTRO</h3>
<p> We recognise that no infrastructure can be fully autonomous, since autonomy is relative to context. Discussing autonomous infrastructures would they be digital or not, engages us to acknowledge their context of existence and think our relation to it. This transhackmeeting will take place in a context of resistance where we can imagine the decolonisation of technologies. We want to address this situation both from our situation in Europe and in Tarnac, as well as from the production of technologies. The transhackmeeting is self-organized, we imagine that all person present reflects on hacking practice and production.
The Transhackmeeting started with the will to bring together the Spanish and Italian annual hackmeetings. The Transhackmeeting happened twice in 2004 and 2007. This new event, 11 years later, takes pride in this filiation, and wants to gather hackers from across Europe in the central ground of Tarnac, halfway between the Southern hacklabs and the Northern hackerspaces. A group of people gathered during FOSDEM to organize the meeting, including one person from Tarnac who proposed the place. During 2017 surged the idea to reactivate the Transhackmeeting and through various gatherings and discussions in the hackmeetings and various European events emerged the plan to meet in Tarnac. Durante el año 2017 surge la idea de volver a recuperar el encuentro y tras diversas puestas en común en los hackmeetings y otros eventos europeos, se plantea un encuentro en Tarnac. Mid-May we went to Tarnac to meet the people there and study the feasability of making the event happen there. We were received like friends and found a welcoming and ready collective to harbor the resurgence of the Transhackmeeting.
Traditionally the Transhackmeeting is self-organized, which means that you, as a participant, are part of the organization. The principal venue for THK organization is <ahref="http://lists.autistici.org/list/thk.en.html">the mailing-list</a>
<li>Because there is no technical solution to social and political problems, and because technologies are crucial to social and political transformation; this TransHackmeeting will federate our communities in resistance, in order to build a common understanding of the existing powers in place. Building from our forces we meet to share multiple singular technologies that emerge in context from our organizations.
</li>
<li>Because is more fun to talk in person than online.</li>
<li>Because we want to bridge networks, exchange between people from a non-techinical background, people critical of technology, and analog hackers (people hacking plants/ vehicles / houses/ etc.)</li>
<li> Infiltration is also a creative strategy that has been used in different contexts, as effective attacks in art history and contemporary hactivism. </li>
<li>Digestion of situation and organisation of genealogies.</li>
<p> For translation, discussion have started with COATI collective from Barcelona to have all the necessary devices for direct translations, we will need voluntary translator, from/to different languages.</p>
<p> We are also looking at providing LSF / LSI translation when possible. </p>
