TZMau Organizers Meetup (all welcome)


The next national organization meeting will be as follows:

  • Sunday 29th January 2012
  • Time: 6:00pm – 8:00pm EST
  • Location: Teamspeak – TZM Australia room

Please feel free to attend. Meetings are open to all for the sake of transparency (they are also recorded). Due to limited time generally only organizers/coordinators speak, although if there is limited traffic and/or you have something important to share then there may be an opportunity to do so during the meeting. Otherwise there will be an opportunity for general discussion once the business side of the meeting is over – all members are invited to participate in this. For agenda items please check this link to a google-doc.

The main focus of the next meeting will be plans for Z-day 2012 – planned for Saturday 17th March. Time is short and plans need work – so please chime in with your ideas as and when they come up!

TZMau Organizers’ open Team Speak Meetup


Hey there!

The next organizers’ meeting is coming up soon – details are:

  • Date: Sunday – 15th
  • Time: 6pm-8pm EST
  • Location: Teamspeak – Zeitgeist Australia room

This meeting will be open to the public, meaning that anyone can listen in. However, as is also the case with international meetings, only coordinators/representatives will be able to speak during the meeting due to time constraints (with 11,000 members it has the potential to get chaotic!), although if there is low traffic others will get a chance. Once the business part of the meeting is over (8pm) there will be ample opportunity for all present at the meeting to continue their discussion and chip in their 2-cents’ worth, so those who did not have a chance to speak before can do so then :-)

For a look at the agenda please check: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1567jmCuRWU-KQuVrLsFN4DqxZAqbW2WsTuIg… As it’s a google-doc please feel free to add any suggestions for agenda items that you feel need to be discussed. These will be prioritised at the beginning of the meeting.

Cheers, and hope to seeyas (hearyas?) next week,

Buy Nothing Day

Buy Nothing Day morphs into a Wildcat General Strike on November 28

There is  one way you can do to avoid the collapse of this human experiment of ours on Planet Earth: we have to consume less. So this November 28 in Europe and overseas, Adbusters in kinship with Zeitgeist Australia is calling for a Wildcat General Strike. We’re asking tens of millions of people around the world to bring the capitalist consumption machine to a grinding – if only momentary – halt. We want you to shut off your lights, televisions and other nonessential appliances. We want you to park your car, turn off your phones and log off of your computer for the day. We’re calling for a Ramadan-like fast. From sunrise to sunset we’ll abstain en masse – not only from holiday shopping, but from all the temptations of view complete entry
