Fragment from the programme:
Friday January 18, PostCS11
15.45 - 17.45 Alternative Platforms and Software
Independent Media Sites
In the current environment, the first independent media sites are looking to the 2.0 trend with two different attitudes: On one side, they want to learn to network the different producers better, and help spread the good material. On the other side, the narcissism and individualism of the blogosphere is seen as counter-productive by most of the activists-programmers that work on open platforms.
The not-so-digital videoactivists use many 2.0 platforms and we fail to make them understand why we don’t like them, while not providing a good choice. Which are the differences? Why does indymedia have fewer users than facebook? Do we need more facebook-like users? Why is so hard to use free platforms and how can we change that?
