DIY New Media!
[pdf handout] [slideshow] [links+resources]
About our workshop
The Hart Collective uses our 20+ collective years of experience learning technologies to promote and create their own projects in order to fund our expertise teaching this D.I.Y. New Media Workshop.We teach individuals and activist collectives how to use freeware and shareware technologies [ie, no-cost software] to:
- name, create [yup, how-to code!], and publicize a web page
- record and edit audio for online distribution
- utilize technologies and networking to promote their projects.
- We require about a 2-hour time period to get through this workshop.
- We bring laptops and can bring a projector
- We also prefer to teach in a room with internet access so we can show people how to "go live"
- We provide learners with a handout and a webpage full of links andtutorials, as well as inspiration and skills!
We've given this workshop at: Desiree Alliance Conference 2007 +2008, Women, Action and the Media 2008, The Anarchist Bookfair 2009, The US Social Forum 2010, and for many individual groups and collectives along the way.
