Sektor 6 Kommunikations: About Us

sektor 6 kommunikations is an "artivist" network [founded in 1989] that works to empower people within the arts and activist communities. By having a network collaborative that can execute a wide variety of functions, we offer support to artists, community organizations, journalists, politicians and more.

We began only producing experimental electronik music nights [originally "Sector 6"]. As we grew, our goals became more about generating community and applying our collective skills in ways that would educate people about non-traditional art forms as well as hopefully entertain. In 1998, we evolved into more of a socially-minded organization.

After the events of 2001, which we personally endured being based in New York City, we realized a renewed responsibility to educate and advocate. That is the sektor 6 kommunikations you are experiencing today. We help people and organizations rethink how they see the arts, entertainment, societal information and social responsibility.

We provide a robust archive of exclusive and/or shared social/political writings, research, and documentation. This is to help you go behind and beyond the surface argument to discuss and create a document-based analysis toward problem solving without deification or vilification. Our archive of exclusive and shared arts media [video/audio/text] is quite extensive. In addition, we also do direct social actions to affect change on-the-ground in the analog world. It has always been our intention to show, by example, what is possible on a small budget if proper strategy is employed. Thankfully, that has inspired others to do the work of creating a better society...and not only discussing it.

We believe it is the responsibility of global citizens, and artists in particular, to pay close attention to the world around us, seek the truth as it can be ascertained and not as we would want it to be, and then speak up...without pretense...without fear...with the vision of affecting change toward a more humane and compassionate world.

We have added Google Ads to the site as an additional resource. There are times when it supplies excellent link resources...and then there are times when it doesn't work so well. We hope you find it useful.

"I do not go back to America to sit still, remain quiet, and enjoy ease and comfort. . . . I glory in the conflict, that I may hereafter exult in the victory. I know that victory is certain. I go, turning my back upon the ease, comfort, and respectability which I might maintain even here. . . Still, I will go back, for the sake of my brethren. I go to suffer with them; to toil with them; to endure insult with them; to undergo outrage with them; to lift up my voice in their behalf; to speak and write in their vindication; and struggle in their ranks for the emancipation which shall yet be achieved." ----FAREWELL TO THE BRITISH PEOPLE, March 30, 1847
[Frederick Douglass] formerly-enslaved U.S. Black lecturer, writer

"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
[Samuel Adams] legendary & contradictory United States "founding father"
