General Intelligence Agency (of Ljubljana)

General Intelligence Agency (Of Ljubljana) is an emerging organisation for collective intellectual consumption and production, with a focus on the reflection and optimisation of the conditions and means of these activities. GIA aims to produce an autonomous community and a corresponding world picture that will be of interest to both local and global actors. GIA diagnoses bugs in the general cognitive infrastructure and attempts to tackle them.
