"what
is lotek?" |
|
Often
times the questions arises: "What is Lotek?"
This is a question that can in no way be answered sufficiently
through written medium. It is something that needs to
be experienced to truly understand, perhaps something
that only a lotek can only understand, from the inside.
|
|
We
can start by listing a few of the things that Lotek
is. Lotek is a figment of collective imaginations.
It is a way of thinking, a way of living. It is known
as the Lotek way. Simultaneously, Lotek is a family.
a crew. a gang. We are like minded people who strive
for a singular goal, Lotek over all. So far we have
collected some of the most brilliant minds around, and
we have just begun.

What
we are not is a group of immature "elitist" kids. However,
the fact that we are elitist is no misconception. Perhaps
you disagree with our reasoning behind our perceptions
of superiority. Look at the average human, look
at the average Lotek. Yes, we are better. When we say
something, it is usually true. When you hear of Lotek
for the first time, most likely our presence has been
there for a while, you are just now noticing.

One
of our most visible tactics are the public projects
that we are involved in. Many of us are constantly working
to improve ourselves in many fields of Lotek interest,
but often times we collaborate towards a single common
goal. A few of these such teams are
Drone Technologies, Lotek Production Labs,
and Lotek Nokturnal Klan.

Drone
Technologies is a production crew of central Ohio promoters.
We throw "parties" or "raves." We sponsor DJ's and live
electronic musicians. Our Klepton event was the
most successful drum&bass event ever to be held in Columbus,
Ohio. It was followed up by Diatom in collaboration
with the local ele_mental
crew. Domeville, an experiment in live electronic music
performance involving computers and didgeridoos among
other things, has growin into the Interrupt Audio Recordings
label with the Shattered Sounds album as its first release.
Be on the lookout for further Lotek related musical
excursions.

So
what do the rest of us do? We are all involved in separate
projects as well, as our vision for the future plays
out much like a sci-fi film of the 21st century.
Current interests lie in fields of internet security,
systems administration, programming, cellular technology,
phone system intricacy, robotics, hi and lo resolution
graphics, electronic music production and deejaying,
current and vintage console devices, as well
as many other smaller fields too numerous to mention.

To
answer this easily, we are everywhere. To be
more specific, we have public locations in North America,
Europe, and Asia, listed are major cities in
areas we flex influence in. We have roots in Africa
and other possible worlds. However our main collective
is based in the 614 area code, Columbus, Ohio, US. We
still represent strongly in this neighborhood.
|
|
Where
are we going tomorrow? We will be everywhere by tomorrow.
We will be the ones helping others across the street,
or more accurately, the ones building the street for
you to cross. We will be on all continents with equal
representation. We will reach out to the planets first,
then the stars. It is within our grasp, time
being the only restraint. It is up to the reader whether
or not they wish to be there as well.
|
When? Today,
tomorrow, we were there yesterday.
