<nettime> INDIA: [cr-india] Another media is possible

["Frederick Noronha (FN)" <fred@bytesforall.org>]

---------- Forwarded message ----------

Open publishing is an alternative to mainstream media, displaying the 
ability of ordinary people to report and comment on anything of 
interest without centralised control, respecting the rights of others 
to get non-partisan reportage.

Live and archived audio and video streaming from WSF 2004 in Mumbai, 
with written reports, is available from http://india.indymedia.org, 
supported by media activists from across the world. Anyone who wants 
to help with the written text, converting it to Indian languages, is 
welcome. This is similar to efforts made by activists from other 
places, who have or will make the content available in Spanish, 
French and more.

The content, including the streaming web-radio and video is free to 
publish, with acknowledgments.

Activists who want and need to know the mechanics of organising and 
delivering a wide variety of content, including live radio, may visit 
the indymedia center, on the first floor above the main media center, 
at WSF 2004 in Mumbai. We will organise specific workshops for small 
community groups to learn how to build and operate their own low 
cost, low power radio stations, if there is interest.
