Humanitarian Crisis

The City suffers from a humanitarian crisis and appeals for unilateral humanitarian aid, and basic human rights.

Humanitarian Crisis is an independent, non-profit, non-governmental organization working through field-based analysis, low/high-level advocacy and decisive action to resolve the devastating humanitarian crisis in the City.

As with all humanitarian functions, Humanitarian Crisis acts with a mandate from the people who have made a desperate plea for their basic human rights.

Our city no longer houses a "secret" humanitarian crisis: what was only recently undeclared and ignored by international humanitarian discourse (but in the open for all to see) is now acknowledged.

The plea is made, and with The Humanitarian Crisis Group taking on the role of an objective, aid-distributing and enforcing body, the international community and the bay area itself may finally bear witness to the Crisis.

Our objectives are clear: every single resident of San Francisco is entitled to basic human rights, yet only 1 of every 100 actually receives the aid that he or she needs to be considered a depoliticized Human. We work tirelessly to increase that number.

In times of crisis such as these, boundaries between social classes may fall apart, or they may crystalize. To supply residents with the supplies they so desperately need, we must ensure that boundaries break down. Only then can the distribution of vital, life-giving resources come to fruition.

After basic human rights have been restored, Humanitarian Crisis will bring the perpetrators of the Crisis to justice by establishing tribunals.

Whatever colors they may wear, these players have distinguished themselves by the number of tasks they have completed in the zone of Humanitarian Crisis:

Induce paranoia. For example, install fake surveillance cameras in semi-private places.

Self-Negation Protocols/Administering Dissolution

Added by Yoshi February 16th 2008 @ 5:12 pm

Self-improvement initiatives often take the form of the regimen, the stringent plan which promises to enhance you if only you can abide by its rules. They work, in other words, by guaranteeing to bring form and rhythm to your life, to make you legible and enumerable to yourself.

By contrast, of course, dissolution and decadence are often figured as lapses in judgment and counting -- hence symptomatic statements like "I had no idea how much I was eating/drinking/smoking until I had finished the bag of chips/was passed out in the hot tub/was coughing my lungs up."

Your task is to reverse the game: delineate and operationalize a set of self-negation protocols. The first step in this process will be to approximate how many times in a week or day you engage in a particular "healthy" or "unhealthy" behavior. The second step is to create the regimen; e.g. "I've calculated that on an average Saturday I have about five drinks. Now I'll make sure to have seven." Or, "I do 500 crunches a week. This week I'll do zero crunches and instead consume exactly 500 French Fries." Make sure the regimen is exacting and precise; your New Week's Resolution shouldn't be formless.

Implement the protocols within the "field" for a week and report your findings. Was your desire augmented? Diminished? Neither? Did subjecting your "vices" to enumeration give you an organizational pleasure?

Political Praxis

Added January 11th 2008 @ 9:02 pm

Radicalize someone. This need not be political, but political praxis is certainly welcome.
