Next Tuesday, 13.11.2007 held every month the radical leftist / autonomous assembly. The focus this time will be our relationship to media.
We want to separate between two different debates. First, the mainstream media. How we conduct ourselves on these currently? What would a reasonable deal?
And secondly, "our" Media: What is it and what should there be? Do we need new or existing sources should be developed?
Civic Media
The ratio to mainstream media is ambivalent. First, the success of campaigns is often measured at the media reaction. At the same time no one wants anything to do with the media. There is no organized press efforts Autonomous it rare, and if no one wants to give interviews, then the otherwise radical comrades inn * * representative * s at once inside a camp organization, an alliance or a group of volunteers but not autonomous. Within alliances, we leave this work behind us and others like to be surprised by the result.is perhaps the media work so well rightly refused so often? Because not write what they want anyway, or are not always available for our website? Can we actually reach people through mass media and what content can be transported?
These basic considerations are still the problems of implementation: how to look like a press work in which no single person, but the content in the spotlight. Approaches to this were as the spokesman of several border camps inside * Charles and Lotta campers.
scene media
needed here, a distinction once again in the media, which are made from the scene for the scene and in the media, which aim to reach beyond people - it is the group of people that like as left -is labeled alternative or whether the so-called "public".addition to the different target groups should be considered at a consideration to media scene and what purposes are pursued through the media work.
A classic scene-medium is the stepping stone. This has been discussed for some time, and notes that the concept of interim lost through the wide dissemination and use of the Internet more relevant. We wonder in what form the interim still makes sense. How they would have to be content and organization, designed so that they can gain more relevance and a wider distribution. If the interim for information and views in print, the best approach where all dates and calls for release are already on the Internet and for weeks ausliegen into the left Bars? If the interim not be primarily a place for uncensored and free discussions of repression? How can we reach more people that use the interim, both as a writer * who * as well as readers.
Another scene not to be overlooked medium is Indymedia. The problem is it only that Indymedia does not want to be like this, nor really is. It is no aspect of justice. Neither the original Indymediakonzept, yet the obvious need for an Internet platform for views, debates and events from the radical left spectrum. In this case, nobody wins, not the Indymedia artist * who can implement their project concept is not, nor we, the we * our discourse by the censorship policy is not radical left leader can determine the inside.
counter public
addition to its own scene, we want to occasionally reach other people. How we do it indirectly by the bourgeois media is questionable. Similarly, should the website or the blog of a small group or individual who have no audience of millions. Movement in prosperous times, there were many different projects, such as free radio or local papers today, if they exist at all, reach only a small circle. Would such projects are designed so that they are actually perceived by many people. How could in this day and age with today's Successful counter-public funds look like?other topics:
