[Nettime-bold] !WSF/WEF GLOBAL SOLIDARITY BROADCAST! |
----- Forwarded message ----- From: "Amoshaun" <amoshaun@freemedianetwork.org> Subject: !WSF/WEF GLOBAL SOLIDARITY BROADCAST! Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2002 08:43:26 -0800 Apologies for crossposting... !WSF/WEF GLOBAL SOLIDARITY BROADCAST! When: January 31st-Feb 5th The annual meeting of the World Economic Forum is leaving its long time home in Davos, Switzerland and moving to New York City. If they thought that the Swiss people gave them a hard time, look out: New Yorkers will not sit by while the CEO's of the worlds largest corporations scheme there way to more profit and devastation in the global economy. The rest of the world is gathering in Porto Alegre for the World Social Forum. Unlike the WEF the WSF brings together a broad section of civil society, people already working hard to bring about a true global democracy free from the grip of transnational corporations. "Another world is possible." IMC-New York and IMC-Brazil will be broadcasting live from both events: bringing you the latest on the streets of New York, as well as the visionary words and ideas of the WSF in Porto Alegre. But what about the rest of the world? THE IMC RADIO NETWORK IS ASKING YOU TO HELP! Organize your local IMC to broadcast programming from your community for a global solidarity broadcast! How does living in a capitalist economy degrade local autonomy, community empowerment and grassroots democracy? How do the actions of transnational corporations destabilize the local economy, influence local politics and break established unions? Tech help and free software is available. HELP BUILD A GLOBAL RADIO BROADCAST! If you are interested in participating PLEASE ATTEND THIS IRC MEETING! NEXT IRC MEETING: Saturday, January 12th, 20:00GMT (18:00 DST in Brazil, 21:00 Mediterranean/continental Europe time, 22:00 Greece, 12:00 Pacific coast USA, 15:00 Atlantic coast USA. Ongoing organizing is happening on the imc-audio@indymedia.org list Subscribe at <http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/listinfo/imc-audio> What will the Broadcast be like? We will have live broadcasts scheduled from as many local IMC's as possible, taking turns broadcasting to the same web stream using the D.R.O.P. network (Distributed Radio Open Project: http://radio.us.solipsists.org). The live programming will be archived and replayed in a play list until the next live broadcast comes on. Content will be a mix of interviews, news updates, call in's, and revolutionary music. The broadcast stream will be mirrored by revolutionary web casters and FM broadcasters around the world. YOU CAN BE A PARTICIPANT! --------------------------------------------------------------- In order to broadcast Brazil IMC still needs the following items: ~a Pentium II with at least 64Mb of RAM, a CD player and a soundcard ~a Mixing board Donation contact for in kind or monetary donations: pablo@indymedia.org ----- End forwarded message ----- -- jaromil ][ http://dyne.org ][ GnuPG _key__id_ EDEE F1B9 DC92 76C0 6D46 D77A 58B0 82D6 (5B6E 6D97) _______________________________________________ Nettime-bold mailing list Nettime-bold@nettime.org http://amsterdam.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-bold
