Digital Culture: Steal This Film.

Part One, shot in Sweden and released in August 2006, combines accounts from prominent players in the Swedish piracy culture (The Pirate Bay, Piratbyrån, and the Pirate Party) with found material, propaganda-like slogans and Vox Pops. It includes interviews with The Pirate Bay members Fredrik Neij (tiamo), Gottfrid Svartholm (anakata) and Peter Sunde (brokep) that were later re-used by agreement in the documentary film Good Copy Bad Copy, as well as with Piratbyrån members Rasmus Fleischer (rsms), Johan (krignell) and Sara Andersson (fraux).
The film is notable for its critical analysis of an alleged regulatory capture attempt performed by the Hollywood film lobby to leverage economic sanctions by the United States government on Sweden through the WTO. Evidence is presented of pressure applied through Swedish courts on Swedish police to conducting a search and seizure against to disrupt The Pirate Bay’s BitTorrent tracker service, in contravention of Swedish law.

Vodo Mixtape 1.

We’re proud in DCTV to be adding this first VODO MIXTAPE to our schedule. Actual tape might be a thing of the past, but before P2P, mixtapes were the most popular way of sharing popular culture the world had known — and once called the ‘most widely practiced American art form’. Vodo.net want to resuscitate the spirit of the mixtape for this VODO MIXTAPE series: compilations of their favourite shorts, the weird, the wild and the wonky, all brought together in a temporary and uncomfortable company.

Vodo’s twist is that they see themselves as providing a mechanism where the artist or producer can recoup some of the costs of making their work available through donations and the like. It’s monetisation scheme that’s worked wonders for films like Nasty Old People. Never mind the exposure given to film makers through the networks of viewers. The first mix tape contains a brutal portrait of an unofficial town crier in Boston. A piece of end of the world sci-fi rammed together in 48 hours for the International Film Shoot Out. A drama where trust between Moscow newly weds faces its first test. A birth day party where no body turns up. And a rather gore-filled animation.

Gimme the Camera plays on Thurs 20:30, Friday 20:30, Saturday 20:30, Sunday 23:00

Highlights This Month.

Here’s the cream of the crop for July. More descriptions can be found over at dctv.ie…

Dublin Voices 2
Monday 1230 and Friday 1900//

This discussion programme came about as part of a four-class media literacy course facilitated by DCTV and funded by Dublin Community Forum. Through both classroom sessions and practical studio workshops the participants were
brought through the various ways media works, both mainstream and our model of community media. This programme was driven by the participants and took place on Wednesday, 9th June 2010. If anyone out there is interested in taking part

Gilbert
Give me the camera//

Nathaniel Hansen’s ‘Gilbert’ is a stark portrait of Boston’s Beacon Hill ‘town crier.’ For the last 9 years, since losing his job and becoming homeless, Gilbert has delivered the weather, sports, and breaking headlines from his spot on the Boston Common.
author ‘This is the first in a series of profiles of people who I think are interesting, and who I see on almost a daily basis,’ says Nathaniel. ‘I don’t want to limit the series to people who live “on the fringe,” but it would be appropriate to say that most of the people I interview are eclectic, eccentric, and just a little bit unique. I hope to turn my lens on individuals that don’t always color in the lines, whether they can help it or not.’
Lilah
Give me the camera //

Lilah is a psychic, about 55 years old, who has lived within the same 2 block radius in downtown Boston her entire life. Her neighbourhood, once rife with crime, drug abuse, strip clubs and prostitution, is now home to luxury high-rise buildings and multiple college campuses. Her business and home, and a few of the other area taverns and restaurants, are the last of the ‘old time’ holdouts. ‘The idea of interviewing a psychic interested me early on in this project,’ says Nathaniel, ‘as I pass several on my walking route each day. I worked up the nerve to buzz the psychic on the second floor of one building in particular, and was immediately buzzed up. There I met Lilah who was very, very reluctant to be interviewed.”

Watch Alice Breed
Give me the camera //

Watch Alice Bleed’ is a gore-filled stop motion animation. It opens with Alice being decapitated, and having her head fed to a ‘gorehound’. Then things start to get really gruesome.Fredrik Andersson studied animation at Konstfack art school in 2002. He lives and works in Eksjö, Sweden and has been a member of Eksjö Animation since 2006.and sound.
