why not international hacker radio network, connecting all public
and private hackerspaces?<br>
<br>
POLL:<br>
<br>
--who here wants to generate some hacker audio content for a hacker
radio segment, even just once? show of hands....? This is the most
important thing. <br>
<br>
--who here would take the lead on organizing the project?<br>
<br>
--who here would listen? how many hours per month/week would you
tune-in to hacker-radio?<br>
<br>
--who feels it should be a wireless hyper-local broadcast vs.
internet radio?<br>
<br>
--what kinds of content would people like to make? personally, i
think hacker-radio programming should be hackery. which could mean a
few things:<br>
-shows about hacking, making, building<br>
-hacker-profiles<br>
-audio instructables<br>
-shows about how to patent, market, and sell inventions<br>
-shows about how patents, marketing, and selling are evil<br>
-shows about censorship, freedom of information,
surveillance, etc<br>
-radio-hacking, meaning shows which experiment with the
medium of audio communication<br>
-info broadcast in the form of modem noises or other
audio-encoding<br>
-music performed on built, hacked, coded, and hand-wired
instruments<br>
<br>
--what i personally think would NOT be hackery is:<br>
--published, commercial music, or any music played on
non-hacked instruments (unless it's just background music for a
spoken-word segment). <br>
--general political activist stuff. There are already many
radio outlets for that, such as <a
href="http://www.indymedia.org/or/index.shtml">indymedia.org</a>,
KPFA, etc etc. We're hackers! Of course, one's definition of
"hacking" can be very broad.... <br>
<br>

i think a 30-minute segment per month is a realistic starting goal.
(keep in mind those Burning Man stations are only on-the-air for one
week per year.)<br>

ha, thanks Gio. <br>
<br>
But credit is due to NORMAN for inspiring us. Thanks, Norman! (Norm,
if you still feel NB should pursue a federally-licensed FM station,
don't let me stop you). <br>
<br>
also, i could not personally organize a hacker radio show or
network. too busy. but i would gladly contribute suggestions and
audio content. How about you guys, Gio and Norman? <br>
