Pictures from the Amsterdam ASCII internet cafe squat, 1999

During the late 1990 I toured the world with a series of lectures and class on critical internet cultures in Europe. I am digitizing the slides I took of hackerspaces/camps in Amsterdam, starting with ASCII. the Amsterdam Subversive Center for Information Interchange was a communication laboratory that was based in numerous locations. The first incarnation was formed in 1999, on the corner of Herengracht and Gasthuismolensteeg.
