IMCistas Organize and Socialize in Austin
10 Mar 2005
by
from www.Indymedia.org
A few months after the Independent Media Center celebrated its fifth
anniversary as a non-corporate resource for the
open-publishing
of news and information, about 150 IMCistas, mostly based in the
US, gathered in
Austin, Texas for
IndyConference which took place
February 18-20. The weekend included both formal and informal workshops,
discussions, and skillshares with the goal of improving our
effectiveness as a radical media network. There were also presentations
from media activists Douglas Kelner, John Downing, Clemencia Rodríguez,
and Amy Goodman.
Our discussions included themes such as
Professionalism
and Indymedia,
Shortcomings
and Potentials of IMC,
The
Geography Hurdle,
Setting up an IMC at a Mass Mobilization,
Blogging
and Indymedia,
IMC
and Underserved Communities, and
Race
and Gender in Indymedia. Other workshops and skillshares included
IMC
Print Caucus,
IMC
Video Discussion,
How
to Do a Radio Show, and
Documenting
Resistance. A generous amount of time was dedicated to
discussing
Indymedia.us, an open-publishing website and a portal site
syndicating
news from local IMCs in the US. Before the Friday workshops began,
we discussed
how
we would document the conference and coordinated our coverage
efforts. We hope that you find the documentation useful and encourage
your feedback about all aspects of the conference.
