This year, the Digital Be-In is themed "The Transparent Network." One key interpretation of the term (ala Michael Gosney), is in reference to the fast-evolving infosphere and communications networks that promise an open and widely accessible flow of information and contact between people, groups and institutions worldwide.
Open source software, social networks and personal identities, human vs. corporate rights in cyberspace, alternatives to consumer-driven and politicized mass media, the "Digital Divide" between rich and poor and many other vital topics will be in the spotlight at Digital Be-In 13 on May 29, 2004 in San Francisco.
