Seit einer kleinen Umstrukturierung im Jahr 2026 besteht die dezentrale vor allem aus zwei Teilbereichen. Sie ist weiterhin eine unabhängige Plattform für politische und subkulturelle Infos und Angebote aus Kassel. Die zwei Schwerpunkte bilden weiterhin der calendar and the directory linker Orte und Gruppen in Kassel. Als neue Untergruppe bildete sich 2026 zudem das Projekt “Kassel.info” ., das mit seinem Kurznachrichtendienst die aktuelle Nachrichtenlage in Kassel abbildet und mit seiner unabhängigen Berichterstattung die Zeitungsberichterstattung in Kassel ergänzt.
dezentrale 2017 to 2025
Die dezentrale ist eine unabhängige Plattform, die sich aus Einzelpersonen verschiedener Kasseler Initiativen zusammensetzt. To 2025 bestand das Projekt aus drei Teilbereichen, each working independently as a working group: the press department (reports and press coverage), Drucksache (city magazine) and Netzteil (Online event calendar and directory).
Make diversity visible: As a platform for subculture, arts and politics the dezentrale tries to , make visible the diversity of events and actions, which take place every day in Kassel, This platform wants to , gather the numerous grassroots initiatives and collectives of Kassel on one platform. We devote ourselves specifically to content from subcultures, arts and politics, which normally receive little public attention.
from clandestzine to dezentrale
The dezentrale went 2017 from the clandestzine – less staff, as ideal and financial. Maybe we were just the last fans. Between 2010 and 2013 the Zineasten did really nice things – per month, analog, in black and white. In addition to appointments, there were content-related contributions: texts, Collagen, Reports, usw. — from time to time for a substantive focus. For each edition of the printed zines another person took over the graphic design. Quantity depending on Faltaufwand 300 to 500 piece.
between paper plane and spaceshuttle
The decentralized is trying to think a little further today and is currently accelerating somewhere between the paper planes of the Clandestzines and a climate-neutral space shuttle with internet drive. We have remained faithful to the idea, that people, Things and ideas have to be visible first – in Terminkalendern, Debattenbeiträgen, at events, in Zines – before they can connect, to work on society, in which you want to live. We are a collective, looking for old and new formats, to make this thought practical
