Description
Gene Youngblood, the author of Expanded Cinema, has been teaching, writing, curating and lecturing on media democracy and alternative cinemas since 1970. Tonight, in a rare appearance, Youngblood will present “Secession from the Broadcast: The Challenge to Create on the Same Scale as We Can Destroy.” “There exists today an alternative media environment that surpasses the wildest utopian dreams of twentieth-century media activism,” he writes. “It holds the possibility of radical re-socialization on a global scale and is a mortal threat to social control as we know it. This lecture is about what is at stake in the epic struggle for control of the Internet, and what we must do to release its revolutionary potential.”
