thoughts on collaborative film-making

the main area of interest is the research of new methods of filmmaking and
where they can be applied, looking at (and refering to) the old utopia of
the video movement (60ties / 70ties) and further back brechts many-to-many
thesis of radio distribution and the vertoff theories on film: reaching
access to culture and knowledge through media for as many people as
possible.

in the case of deptford.tv this is done with the use of digital networks
under open licences. the thesis is that the use of floss and open content
will enable these "utopian" forms of communication to a certain degree (as
in collective approaches to media production).
