FREE MEDIA FROM THE MOUTH OF THE THAMES

This event is part of the "Enter Network" hosted by The Junction - a series of monthly networking events designed to build media arts contacts, knowledge and resources in the Eastern region. Lots of organisers from around the region will be present. This is our big opportunity to show them how it goes down!



An open discussion about the free-media philosophy featuring some of the MediaShed's most recent media arts projects:

Graham Harwood - what is free-media and why did we choose the MediaShed model for Southend?

Richard Wright - how does it all work? "Telephone Trottoire", an art project for Congolese cellphones;

David Valentine - the "Free-media Video Toolkit", building a free-media resource from New York to the East of England;

Rory McPherson - "LEDFun", Rory's recent "free-media" based microbusiness;

and from Ravensbourne College - Prof. Karel Dudesek on DIY media and the "Takeaway Festival"




So relax, feel free to ask questions, try things out and generally breath in the atmosphere of free-media!

Thursday December 7, from 6.30-9.00pm
The MediaShed, Unit 38, Grainger Road Industrial Estate, Southend on Sea, SS2 5DD.
