AHA invita tutti a contribuire per scuotere e ri-combinare il significato di creazione artistica, per un'arte che non sia piu' una mera definizione ma una forma di attivismo. AHA mailing-list e' nata il 30 dicembre 2002 ed e' moderata da Tatiana Bazzichelli [t_bazz@ecn.org], Lo|Bo [lo_bo@ecn.org] ed Eleonora Calvelli [eo_call@ecn.org]. La mailing-list nasce nel cuore del progetto AHA: Activism-Hacking-Artivism (www.ecn.org/aha), fondato a Roma nel 2001 e poi dal 2003 sviluppato a Berlino, in Germania. Il progetto AHA e' una opera di networking creata per promuovere in rete la net culture e l'hacktivism italiano. AHA ha contribuito alla creazione di un network di pratiche e relazioni attraverso mostre, eventi, conferenze, workshop e incontri in Italia e all'estero. Il progetto AHA ha ricevuto la Honorary Mention nella categoria Digital Communities al Prix Ars Electronica, presso l'ARS Electronica Festival di Linz (AU) nel settembre 2007. Nel marzo 2008 gli iscritti ad aha@ecn.org si sono riuniti per organizzare il primo incontro nazionale della mailing-list, organizzato il 3, 4 e 5 ottobre 2008 presso lo spazio espositivo indipendente S.A.L.E di Venezia. L'incontro e' stato organizzato e gestito direttamente dagli iscritti alla mailing-list che si sono coordinati in una piattaforma wiki creata apposta per l'occasione: l'ahaCamper (http://www.ecn.org/aha/camper). Questa comunita' digitale e' parte del circuito internazionale della mailing-list Nettime. Benvenuto su aha@ecn.org!

The aim of the aha mailing-list is to encourage participants to think about art as an open network of practices and interventions, providing the possibility of sharing ideas, creative works and projects on art and hacktivism. aha@ecn.org is hosted by the Italian independent server Isole Nella Rete (Islands in the Net). The mailing-list was created on 30 December 2002 following the critical path of the networking project AHA:Activism-Hacking-Artivism (http://www.ecn.org/aha), which was founded in Rome in 2001 and later developed in Berlin from 2003. The AHA project is a networking art platform created to promote hacktivism and art on the Internet related to the Italian net culture and underground movement. AHA has contributed to the creation of a network of relations and practices through exhibitions, conferences, workshops and international meetings. The AHA project received an Honorary Mention in the Digital Communities category of the Prix Ars Electronica, at the ARS Electronica Festival in Linz (AU) in September 2007. The key aspect of the AHA project is this community, moderated by three women: T_Bazz, Eo_Call and Lo|Bo. It is part of the neighbourhood mailing-lists of Nettime (other international mailing-lists close to Nettime). In March 2008 the aha-subscribers had the idea of organizing a common initiative. It took place on the 3rd, 4th and 5th of October 2008 at the S.A.L.E independent exhibition space in Venice (The Salt Warehouses). It was organized and managed directly by the subscribers on the mailing-list and on an open wiki platform later developed by the subscribers themselves: the ahaCamper (http://www.ecn.org/aha/camper).
