LongHaul Cafe Night Sunday Oct. 5th at 7pm. Benefit dinner for the radical art activist collective Taring Padi. Homemade Indonesian meal, screening of the documentary Indonesia: Art Activism and Rock n Roll. There will also be a discussion about Indonesian art, politics and social history along with a video conference call with some of the artists in Indonesia. This is a fundraiser and awareness event to help bring members of Taring Padi to the Zapatista organized First Global Festival of Dignified Rage Dec 26-29, 2008 in Mexico City, and in Chiapas Jan 2-4, 2009.

Known as Taring Padi, the group is self-described as an "independent non-profit cultural community based on the concept of people's culture." They arose in 1998 in the midst of major social uprising and political reformation when the corrupt Indonesian dictator President Surharto was forced out of office by a popular people's movement.

Hello SPAZ Community its been a while since I updated about Taring Padi. I spent a lot of time working with the group and others to try to bring them to the states. We didnt get funding, but with internal funding we were trying to bring Toni Volunteero over and I had booked an entire art and speaking tour. I tried to help as much as I could to get Toni a US Visa but after months of waiting and crossing of fingers he wasnt able to get one. They wouldn't issue him a tourist visa and he couldnt satisfy the paperwork for a work visa which is what they said he needed as an artist even for unpaid work. All of October was booked west coast and a busy east coast route including DC, Philly, Balitmore Radical Bookfair, a few gigs in NYC including being scheduled to speak at a conference in NYC as part of the Signs of Change Exhibition which Taring Padi work is included in, and the month of November touring with Beehive. Most of this was cancelled due to the fact Toni wasn't able to come, but I have kept a few of the west coast events as benefit events to instead bring them to Mexico this winter. We had Taring Padi artwork up at the Portland Grassroots Media Camp, a film screening at Black Rose in Portland, an artshow at FBK house in Seattle, and now a few bay area gigs. including an artshow opening on Friday Oct 3rd RPS Gallery in Oakland, and a cafe night/film screening at Long Haul Sunday Oct 5th.

Also I just started uploading some photos to a photobucket account and want to try to put up a wordpress/blogspot with info and photo.

Portland Grassroots Media Camp

Portland Grassroots Media Camp Schedule 
 
The 2008 Camp will take place the weekend of September 12th-14th on the Portland Community College Cascade Campus, in the Moriarty Arts and Humanities Building. We will also be holding events each evening at community spaces affiliated with the Media Camp.
 
The Portland Grassroots Media Camp is a weekend of hands-on skill shares, media workshops, presentations, discussions and gatherings aimed to empower people with tools and skills to express themselves. The camp is open to anyone, emphasizing the inclusion of those who are traditionally excluded from media representation, creation and production. Our goal is to create a teaching environment based on a popular education model, where media makers and community organizers can come together to share skills and build connections. We  hope that everyone involved will continue collaboration after the Camp, and that many individuals and groups will have been empowered to effectively tell their story in a media environment that is increasingly hostile to independent voices.
 
For the 2008 Camp we have an amazing lineup of classes and panels covering a wide range of media forms, facilitated by many well known and lesser know local media makers. Mediums covered include; video, audio, computers skills, stenciling, performance art and much more. We have organized these classes into a system of three different tracks; Becoming a Citizen Reporter, Creative Story Telling and Tools for Community Organizers. For a full version of the schedule and program with facilitator bios and class descriptions visit the "Program" section of our website.
 
Registration will be conducted during an open house at PCC on Friday the 12th from 4:30-7:30 PM, or if class space permits on the days of the camp itself. Special pre-registration is available to members of social justice or community organizations. Pre-register by contacting us in advance by phone or email. Registration for the camp is by suggested donation, with no one turned away for lack of funds. We suggest a $5 donation, but those who are able are encouraged to give more.
 
Evening Events: During the open house on Friday from 6-7:30 we will be hosting a caucus on Media Justice, where local media groups are encouraged to come meet and discuss challenges and opportunities in the Portland/Vancouver media landscape. For more information contact the Media Camp.
 
After registration and the caucus we will move to Liberty Hall for an Opening Night Party from 8-11 PM. The party will include an art show featuring pieces from three different art collectives form around the world; Taring Padi of Indonesia, Collectivo TK from Oaxaca, Mexico and Just Seeds from the US. In conjunction with the showing, representatives for each group will hold a panel on the topic of the intersection of art with social movements. Music will be provided by the Underscore Orchestra and Aircrash2000. Liberty Hall is located at 311 N Ivy St. one block south of Fremont and two blocks west of Vancouver Ave.
 
On Saturday night beginning at 6 PM the New Born Tribe African community center will be co-hosting an African dinner along with a screening of various grassroots film projects that we previewed at our "Tell It Like It Is" event. We will be showing the following short documentaries.

They took all of the computers (over a dozen). They broke into all of the offices. They used a crow bar on the fence and doors.

They need computers, money to pay for damages, and support from our friends and community!
