CiTiZEN KINO is a series of events where each episode has a focus on
urgent topics in today's climate of global instability and environmental +
social crises, insurrections and political upheaval. We have explored
everything from the energy crisis to environmental collapse,
gentrification, cultural hijacking and economic hostage-taking, the
surveillance state to technological acceleration, community gardens and
cultures of resistance.

XLterrestrials present CiTiZEN KINO #40 : All You Can’t Eat !
Our latest "episode" focuses on digital culture in this extremely
precarious and dubious era of predatory corporate capitalism +
technotopian extremism. We'll examine the technological landscapes which
are rapidly shaping civilizations often with undemocratic agendas,
questionable results and disturbing trends.

We'll be reflecting on the situations now often described as a
Post-Snowden Internet or as we've termed the ongoing "cybernetic regime",
assessing the dangers and discussing possible new routes and tactics to
take in this information-flooded, over-networked and now militarized
social sphere.

With a variety of current research from the likes of Astra Taylor, Evgeny
Morozov, and excerpts from an illuminating public domain documentary
called Eyewar from Root and Thorn. We also include insights from
Berlin-based projects like Chaos Communications Congress ( Europe's oldest
and largest hacker convergence) , Tactical Tech Collective ( a public
advocacy and watchdog group similar to The Electronic Frontier Foundation
in California ), the art group Telekommunisten ( coders and cultural
tinkerers now working with Thoughtworks ) and festivals like Transmediale,
 Re:publica and recent events put on by Berliner Gazette. Plus we always
feature a wide variety of unusual audio-visual specimens, which will be
used to experiment with you - the media-users.
