Playlist for The Media Squat with Douglas Rushkoff - May 4, 2009

Mondays 6pm - 7pm on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

The Media Squat is freeform, bottom-up, open source radio looking towards similarly open source, bottom-up solutions to some of the problems engendered by our relentlessly top-down society.

Each show will initiate a series of discussions, which will themselves comprise part of an expanding wiki of resources, support material, and community-generated content.

This isn't pure '60s or Whole Earth radicalism and self-sufficiency (though it's certainly related) but a 21st Century, cyberpunk reclamation of all technologies and social contracts as essentially open source, up for discussion, and open to modification. It's an application of the hacker ethic and net collectivism to everything, done in the spirit of fun and adventure.

Ongoing forums with host, guests, and listeners take place at http://www.mediasquat.net.

Modern Americans don't seem to understand that huge complex systems are LESS SECURE than local, more face to face ones. Corporations have bled away the idea that we can do things for ourselves.

Mon. 5/4/09 7:25pm From: postmanpaul

brian, i agree, and politicians are guilty too.

Mon. 5/4/09 7:29pm From: Brian Oregon

Good point pmp -- it's really the whole plutocratic/centralized power/capital sector of society that depends for its power on our "need" for them.

Mon. 5/4/09 7:30pm From: Charles

Whew. Man I'm typing my butt off. But it's all good. Love the comment thread. We ARE less secure.

Mon. 5/4/09 7:31pm From: Brian Oregon

Biodeisel is one great path away from corporate control.

Mon. 5/4/09 7:35pm From: postmanpaul

Deisel originally designed his engines to run off plant generated fuel!

Mon. 5/4/09 7:37pm From: Brian Oregon

Sounds like a cool book!

Mon. 5/4/09 7:40pm From: Brian Oregon

The whole New Society catalog looks good and up the alley of doing real things.

Mon. 5/4/09 7:40pm From: limn
