Culture Jammers: Communique 12-Reclaiming Public Space

[Ian David]

Jammers,

Time to fight back. For TV-Turnoff 2005 -- April 25 to May 1 -- we've
teamed up with the good folks at TV-B-Gone, makers of a pint-size
remote control that shuts off any television, anywhere. You're in an
airport, classroom, bank or bar and want to silence the idiot box? No
problemo.

In a few weeks, JammerGroups all over the world will start reclaiming
public space with this ingenious device. Organize, share ideas, and get your TV-B-Gone at cost (for $10 plus shipping) at:

And join your city JammerGroup here: <http://jammergroups.org>


THE NEW BOYCOTT
Imagine a new lifestyle game -- we play by spreading uncooling memes
among our friends, getting them to ditch or switch brands. Can we get a few million people to live lives of playful resistance? Share your
thoughts at the forum:

ANTIPRENEUR
A new breed of Jammers is marrying social activism with entrepreneurial zeal. Their grassroots capitalism is producing some amazing out-of-the-Lefty-box ideas. Check out this budding antipreneurial movement:

1. This actually sounds like a good idea to you? Forcing your views on

others and tampering with other peoples property?

[Ian David]

2. I do not necessarily endorse the views of the article

[DenverDem]

3. Like the wrong wing uses the public commons to force their propaganda

on us and suck billions of dollars out of the economy?

The airwaves and public spaces are The People's property.

[SouthernDem2004]

4. The TVs you want to mess with are not public property.

[DenverDem]

5. You are heavily into property rights.

If those TVs are in the public commons and are spouting propaganda, are the TV's not TRESPASSING.
