About

Welcome to an-archos, we build dynamic publishing websites and online communities with an arts focus and link them altogether into one community network. This site is an RSS aggregator of all community news and updates, feel free to subscribe to the feed.

This is also the home of the Anarchy Media Player for WordPress, WordPressMu and standalone websites. It detects and embeds any simple href links to flv, mov, mp4, m4v, m4a, m4b, 3gp, wmv, avi and asf media files in their respective players on the web page. Flash swf embedding is also included via SWFObject.

As to the term an-archos, taken literally it means here the negation of the leadership principle. In the context of this community network it voices a communitarian philosophy whose eudaimonic criteria for the good is a probably hopeless ideal, and that is ‘may all beings be happy’.

Restated in terms of social libertarianism that means true democratic freedom, peace and happiness for all humanity without exception and includes safeguarding the biosphere and all forms of life as a whole.

In terms of libertarian anarchism that would require every individual taking full responsibility for their own well being whilst always recognising a mutual benefit in the well being of others.

In political terms that means a strong peace held together through a global community of mutual social concern for the whole. Its fundamental concepts are love in the unity of the good, the true and the beautiful as human openness to the mystery of being.

    Great plugin! Now if only we could do something about the logo you’re using for your site’s upper left hand corner and the browserurl icon, it’s just all so damn disturbing, even if it’s a no-symbol over a swastika.

    It’s meant to be disturbing as I find our world an increasingly disturbing place to live in what with the developing terminal global energy crisis and its intensifying predatory resource wars threatening nuclear war along with the collapse of our insane growth based global economic order, the collapse of democracy and the rise of of authoritarian police states, while completely overwhelming our capacity to deal with the deterioration of our utterly profligate modern way of life over the next decade and beyond. But not to worry as runaway global warming should provide a final solution to the human problem by 2050 and thereafter.

    The swastika ban is an-archos, the negation of leadership which is the actual form of our global modern order. I see no leadership anywhere, only the contingent, reactionary and meaningless autonomic responses of global ‘leadership’ elites mindlessly driven by the competitive demands of modern technology. We’re a ship of fools with no one at the rudder or charting a course and we’re headed for planetary catastrophe.

    Just a small contribution to logo discussion:
    Swastika BAN on your logo is OK.

    Problem is that people (or maybe just I personally) perceive the SWASTIKA like the very first symbol at your pages.
    I must admit I hesitated a bit IF I should continue to read your pages, when I saw your logo.
    My first reaction was: OOPS! Wrong direction, away!

    Fortunately I suppressed my first impression and continued reading.

    Regards

    I don’t agree with the anology we are a ship of fools with no one at the rudder; those at the rudder are ruled by greed and accordingly, all decisions made by them are based on that concept. The greater majority who vote in to power (what I refer to as) corporate government, do so because they either feast right through to barely exist on the left-overs.
    Only those who live outside the loop are truly ‘free’, however, that doesn’t mean they are free of the negative ramifications of those in the loop.

    Yes I agree, but that’s what I mean by “no one at the rudder”. If our leadership elites are just rats in a Skinner Box conditioned by greed then there truly is no Captain of the ship, there is only our dumb animal evolutionary destiny … which I guess ultimately would mean die off and species extinction.
