Being one of the oldies here, I am not as proficient as some with computer speak
as many of the posters I read here. Some of the jargon is above my head as yet,
but here I am just exploring possibilities.
The first issue might be the internet in general. We have much music that is left wing, it is the nature of good music. In that Left is lovey dovey and right is war and hate........in general. The question is one of internet resources. Could we compile stickies that are equivalent to radio programmes or Flash or Quicktime TV
programmmes.
Another issue might be software Resources. Flash and other perhaps more relevant tools would have to be avialable. Perhaps people could share their expertise.
What if Chomsky would give us an interview, could we do it? It all depends on the technology available on the ground and perhaps skills, perhaps even skills support.
Questions of what one can borrow from others might arise.

Anyway as my brother puts it....I d thought Id run the idea up the pole to see if anyone salutes it.
A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.
I think it is possible we could be the first group on the Left to plant a seed that leads to the first international multimedia socialist broadcaster.

I really like your avatar.

When I first saw the thread tittle, I thought about having Che-lives members actually get on their local public access radio or TV station to possibly reach the masses effectfully.

That would be an awesome idea. If I'm not mistaken, elect marx (in 'leet') has a TV show.... am I correct?

I just had a look at Che-lives downloads. It roughly looks like the type of archive
I have in mind. However, it could be expanded too. I think it should be more public orientated.
How easy/difficult is it to make audio files.
At the moment I am trying to get a community project to get some video cameras.
In the meantime, I will survey the net for material that might be useful.
