That the Internet is public, that it has no borders and that it has no center. These are all false Emergence of T.M. “T.M. emerged when the modest goals of media artists and media activists were transformed into a movement that challenged „everyone“ to produce their own media in support of their own political or social struggle“. New Media Activism 1990 -1996 The "new media" activism was based on the insight that the long-held distinction between the 'street' (reality) and the 'media' (representation) could no longer be upheld. The media had come to „infuse all of society.” (Tactical Media Files) „Ai Weiwei, the artist died in – and with – that fake death, February 2016 N5M festival, 1993 -1998 What was behind? Next 5 Minutes was a festival that brings together media, art and politics. Next 5 Minutes revolves around the notion of tactical media, the fusion of art, politics and media. The festival is organised irregularly, when the urgency is felt to bring a new edition of the festival together. Next 5 minutes (1993 - 2003) "the cheap 'do it yourself' media, made possible by the revolution in consumer electronics and expanded forms of distribution (from public access cable to the internet) are exploited by groups and individuals who feel aggrieved by or excluded from the wider culture. Tactical media do not just report events, as they are never impartial they always participate and it is this that more than anything separates them from mainstream media."

It is based on the idea that advertising is little more than propaganda for established interests, and that there is little escape from this propaganda in industrialized nations. Culture jamming differs from artistic appropriation (which is done for art's sake), and from vandalism where destruction or defacement is the primary goal. examples Richard Serra: Television Delivers People, 1973 “You are the product of T.V.” you are delivered to the advertiser who is the customer.

  • Whither Tactical Media?
    Third Text, Vol. 22, Issue 5, September, 2008, 519–524 Introduction: Whither Tactical Media? Gene Ray and Gregory Sholette We began collaborating on this Special Issue in June of 2006. Our concern was to understand how tactical media (TM) had evolved in the decade since its emergence and to ask how far and in what ways this stream of critical cultural practices and approach to media activism remains viable today. The current global situation is characterised by two factors that were absent or still obscure in the mid-1990s: the renewal of radical and anti-capitalist imagination ignited by the 1994 Zapatista uprising in Chiapas and by movements, protests and struggles against neo-liberalism in Seoul, Seattle, Buenos Aires, Durban, Genoa, Quito and many other places; and the new politics of fear and perma- nent war that have been imposed globally since September 11, 2001. To these, we can add the undeniable indicators of global climate change, resource depletion and ecological degradation, and the openly fascistic tendencies generated by the politics of fear. In light of these shifts, we felt a reflective assessment of tactical media would be timely. Above all, we felt it had become necessary to revisit the question of strategy and the conditions for durable, organised struggle. Despite TM practitioners’ Downloaded By: [New York University] At: 15:28 12 February 2009 aversion to strategic thinking, institutionalisation, categorical hierarchies and grand narratives, it is apparent that a group of radicals with no such prejudices and inhibitions are busy imposing their ultra-conservative vision on the world. Is it still reasonable, then, to insist on the viability of ephemeral tactics that hold no ground of their own, that disappear once they are executed, and that represent no particular politics or vision of a desirable future? Thus, to a range of theorists and activists, we posed this question: ‘Whither tactical media?’ We hoped the results would at least contribute to recently renewed debates about the limits and possibilities of politically engaged art.

  • Hacking Global Justice Paper Prepared
    Hacking Global Justice Paper prepared for: Changing Politics through Digital Networks October 5-6, 2007 Universitá degli Studi di Firenze Florence, Italy Jeffrey S. Juris Assistant Professor of Anthropology Department of Social & Behavioral Sciences New College of Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences Arizona State University [email protected] Hacking Global Justice On November 30, 1999, as tens of thousands of protesters blockaded the World Trade Organization (WTO) Summit in Seattle, the electrohippies organized a simultaneous collective action in cyberspace. The U.K.-based collective, composed of environmentalists and computer programmers, developed a special website allowing activists from around the world to take part in a “virtual sit-in.” Using Floodnet software developed by the Electronic Disturbance Theater (EDT) during previous actions supporting the Zapatistas, the electrohippies’ site automatically transferred visitors en masse to the official WTO domain as if thousands of surfers repeatedly clicked their browser reload buttons at the same time. The action was designed to overload the WTO web server by sending multiple requests over a period of several days. The electrohippies claimed more than 450,000 people ultimately swamped the WTO site from November 30 to December 5, while participants sent an additional 900 e-mails to the server per day. The group later explained their action in this way, "In conventional sit-ins people try to occupy gateways or buildings. In a virtual sit-in people from around the globe can occupy the gateway to the WTO’s web servers. In this way we hope to block the flow of information from the conference- which is significant because it will cement proposals to expand globalization in the 21st Century."1 The virtual sit-in against the WTO is an example of what activists call Electronic Civil Disobedience (ECD), an information-age tactic intricately tied to an emerging wave of resistance against corporate globalization (cf.

Soldiers can choose to lay siege or launch a flanking maneuver. Writers can try their hand at biography or flash fiction. Likewise, creative activists have their own repertoire of forms. Some, like the sit-in and the general strike, are justly famous; others, like flash mobs and culture jamming, have a newfangled pop appeal; yet others — like debt strike, prefigurative intervention, eviction blockade — are mostly unknown but could soon make their appearance on the stage of history.

  • Assignment 1: a Literature Review of New Media Activism
    Assignment 1: A Literature Review of New Media Activism by Sonja Hohenbild, Shahriar Khonsari, Heather McMullen, and Kalea Turner-Beckman ComDev 10 – Term 3 – New Media, ICT & Development – 4036 Words New media has changed our world. It has broadened our means of communication and allowed us to connect with people across spaces and time in unprecedented ways. For collective action such as activism, this has meant monumental shifts in the ways we can organize around shared goals. As recent events have demonstrated, new media activism can harness masses of people to bring about incredible societal change more easily than ever before. From the accomplishments of the so called Arab spring, to the Occupy Wall Street movement, to the smaller scale culture jam’s of American Apparel’s plus size model campaign; People can be seen or heard online as well as on the streets with the help of these tools. At this stage much of the literature around new media activism aims to describe it and tell the stories of its importance in recent world events. Other literature wants to define what it is, it’s scope and effect as well as help shape it’s hoped for future directions. A critical piece is emerging as to who and how it is operated, for whom and in what way including some consideration of who is being excluded. It considers new media activism as an online space, an offline space, as well as an interface. Additionally, some theorists want to warn fellow activists of the perils of new media organizing, about the ability for anyone to harness it’s power and the transparency, yet also contradictory opacity, and easy documentation of organizing online.
