>While Bristol City Council installs a new CCTV array in the Dove St
>housing estate, with the aim to "reduce crime and the fear of crime"
>in the community (cost 1/2m); TowerblockTV proposes an alternate channel
>for resident life improvement. What does the neighbourhood want to be
>watching? The time could be right for TowerblockTV.
>
>Presented by the Cube Cinema, as part of tech_2 festival:
>http://tech2.southspace.org
>
>A workshop and open discussion. Find out how to hack in to the shared
>RF antenna feed to operate a resident TV channel from any highrise flat.
>Discuss this activity with interested towerblock residents, pirate tv
>operators, video-activists, Bristol City Council CCTV reps and others.
>Activate democratic communications in the block.
