others from using it in the title of a conference?

Blackout-proof the protests
"Dear friends,
Across the Middle East -- in Bahrain, Libya, Yemen, and more countries
every day -- autocratic regimes are trying to crush unprecedented
peaceful protests with brutality and blackouts. These countries are
poised on the brink between liberation and enormous bloodshed -- and
the protesters' ability to reach the eyes of the world could determine
the outcomes.
Avaaz is working urgently to "blackout-proof" the protests -- with
secure satellite modems and phones, tiny video cameras, and portable
radio transmitters, plus expert support teams on the ground -- to
enable activists to broadcast live video feeds even during internet and
phone blackouts and ensure the oxygen of international attention fuels
their courageous movements for change."
Contain This! Leaks, Whistle-Blowers and the Networked News Ecology
WikiLeaks is one of the defining stories of the internet, which means
by now, one of the defining stories of the present, period. At least
four large-scale trends which permeate our societies as a whole are
fused here into an explosive mixture whose fall-out is far from clear.

Tactical Media After 9-11
It is tempting to portray '9-11' as a turning point. Gore Vidal warns
that, since September 11, the US is in danger of turning into a "seedy
imperial state." Make war, not politics. The new patriotism requires: "Disruption, including obstructing the view or hearing of others, will
not be tolerated." The list of measures to restrict civil liberties,
freedom of speech and privacy, or what?s left of it, doesn?t stop. A
recent conference in Perth concluded that post-September 11 reporting
adds to divisions and stereotypes. "The media's failure to provide more
perspectives to news consumers and ask critical questions is fuelling a
culture of fear and blame around the world, experts say."
The 1988 Tompkins Square Police Riot - A Video Point of View
Saturday night on August 6th 1988 was stiflingly hot and humid. My
apartment had no air conditioning and I was dying from the heat.
Fortunately that night I was booked from midnight to 7 a.m. at Broadway
Video at Broadway and 49th street to do special effects and editing on
my video work entitled "Free Society".
