In 1932 Bertolt Brecht formulated a critique of the radio as a
centralized mass media, and advocated a decentralized media structure
with as many senders as receivers. Ever since, the general notion of
democratic media has been, and still is, identical to people getting
access to transmitting their own content. From independent grassroot
TV makers to pirate radio stations or online digital platforms, the
aim has been to create a perfect, democratic media structure by
granting people access to the technology. Today though, with a media
landscape made up of corporate internet service providers, Brecht's
visions seem to have been fulfilled. However, paradoxically enough, by
venture entrepreneurs capitalizing on so called architectures of
participation.

In this workshop we will try to go beyond the general notion of
democratic media as a matter of access and instead re-examine the
concept by itself. When broken apart, it raises questions around
systems of organization and means of control. The workshop is on one
side a conceptual framework for the discussion and exploration of
participatory media production and the relation between code, content
and execution, but also a 'hands-on' introduction to simple
commandline video editing. We will develop TV programmes - small
scripts that executes video content in different ways. At the end of
the day we will turn the space into a pirate TV channel and make a
collective transmission out of our TV programming efforts.

Please bring video material and computer.
