webgreetings and welcome, it's time to start your java engines, because the Nimbin Mardi Grass Cyber Capsule is in FULL UP LOAD MODE and has been steadily gaining altitude since the 4:20 Pm toke off from the launch pod under the Nimbin HEMP Embassy on Friday. Most of our early altitude was made possible by the consistent stream of data from the Primary Thrusters (HEMP BAR - CYBER STUDIO) and nowww that the MAIN Thruster - the main street view web cam on the veranda of the pub- is turned FULL ON, it's GO GO GO for the rest of the PROTESTIVAL. The Sun is shining, there is Blue Sky over head and nothing can stop the BIGGEST Cannabis Law Reform Rally in the Southern Hemisphere..... WEBMASTERS NOTE: This page automatically updates every 420 seconds to keep you updated with the latest words and the web cams each refresh every 30 seconds or so, so kick back, relax and enjoy the viewww ;O)--~
Join us in the attempt to set a newww record for longest MAPCHAT session !
www.nimbinmardigrass.com has undergone significant metamorphosis over the last 4 and twenty odd days of construction," said the NMG webmaster, "in the lead up to the festival the main focus was to illustrate the POTential of reality participation- a virtual advert for revolution if you will- however, after we toke off ( 4:20 PM Friday 4th of May A.E.S.T ) the emphasis spins around to web casting the festival to the wwworld at large." There will be 'zipped' sound & video files of selected events available to down load and/or stream, the Media Awareness Project has kindly opened the doors to their Chat Room for the duration of the Mardi Grass as well as providing the cyber link for the Global Cannabis Forum. The Cyber Studio, conveniently located beneath the Nimbin HEMP Embassy, is filling up with the web casting terminals and the operators that we will using to capture the content LIVE from the Protestival. Yep, the tiny village of Nimbin in Northern NSW is once again host to the biggest Cannabis Law Reform Rally in the southern hemisphere. The 'old' Big Joint, the "should be heritage listed" original, is coming down from the roof of the Hemp Embassy for Sunday's Law Reform Rally through the town which will be led by 100 dancing ganja faeries to stand in for the 42 foot giant joint that was bogarted by the Victorian Police at S11 and never returned (legal action continues!). The
village is buzzing with
activity, international visitors are already arriving and if the web site interest is
any indication, this year will be big."says Co-ordinator Andy Dunning, "More
people want
to be involved in Mardi Grass 2001 than ever before, which seems to me to be an
indication of the rapidly expanding push for sensible cannabis law reform."
