<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>This is moving fast and I'm
aware that I'm not really keeping up with it. However, I don't want to get left
behind so I'll say YES, include me in on the basis set out below by Andy
although I think I fit more naturally into a training role than evaluation. In
terms of finance I probs align roughly with what Andy set out. I could also
bring to the party community groups willing to participate and these cover a
wide variety of cultures and ethnic groups. I also have a student volunteering
scheme that could provide community media volunteers to assist community groups

barriers in software, what about also setting out to make the video(s) non
dependent on language. ie Express to producers that they are to try to express
their culture in a way that can be understood or at least appreciated across
many languages.</FONT></DIV>

<P><FONT size=2>Hi All<BR><BR>I'm all in favour of doing things on teh wiki
where possible, but I have found in the past that writing proposals by wiki is
very<BR>difficult. It is less clear who is going to make sure the proposal
actually gets finished and submitted on time. My understanding<BR>is that we are
hoping that Yuwei & Marlene will submit the outline proposal next week
(20th)<BR><BR>We have very little time left.<BR><BR>I would like to suggest the
following allocation of people to roles.<BR><BR>Needs analysis:<BR>Andy
(myself), Ann Light, David Wilcox -<BR><BR>It would help to have someone from
outside the UK as part of this work. I have a couple of possible contacts (David
Casacuberta in<BR>Barcelona, Fiorella de Cindio in Milan) who might be
interested. If no-one on the list from outside the UK wants to sign up,
I<BR>will contact one or both of them.<BR><BR>Tool development /
integration<BR>Tactical tech? Giles Lane (proboscis)?, Cinelera?, Soenke
Zehle?<BR>We don't have anyone listed as yet as specifically interested in
co-ordinating the development work. This is critical. Are any of<BR>the people
listed here interested in taking this on board (obviously at a very provisional
level right now).<BR><BR>The point here is that the initial proposal should make
some suggestion as to an approximate budget for the project. We may be<BR>doing
back of the envelope stuff here, but we should have an idea of the kind of
amounts we are talkign about, and the time scale.<BR><BR>Documentary making /
testing<BR>I still think we need someone to offer the specific skills in
community documentary making - Ginny at Voluntary Arts may be able<BR>to help.
Who else would be interested from outside the UK?<BR><BR>Training
workshops:<BR>Leonie Ramondt (ultralab) ?<BR>Steve Thompson<BR>Again, a non-UK /
non English speaking line would be helpful.<BR><BR><BR>Evaluation:<BR>Ann Light,
Steve Thompson, Andy Dearden, Yuwei Lin & Marleen<BR><BR>Assuming that we
want this to be a 3 year project, what kinds of finance would people be looking
for.<BR><BR>For my own place I'd be thinking about about 220 - 250K Euros - this
would employ a research assistant for 3 years, plus some<BR>money to cover my
time (about 1 day per week), plus some money for
travel.<BR><BR><BR>Andy<BR><BR><BR>Andy Dearden<BR>Communications &

documentary project - draft proposal<BR>><BR>><BR>> Hi
All,<BR>><BR>> Thanks for showing your interest in the
project.<BR>><BR>> I'm trying to narrow down the project to a more doable
level. It is<BR>> possible that we will cooperate with TacticalTech<BR>>
(<A href="http://www.tacticaltech.org">http://www.tacticaltech.org</A>) and
incorporate their practical<BR>> activities<BR>> with the research
activities. To make this incorporation<BR>> easier, I have<BR>> listed
three main research duties essential in this project:<BR>> 1) mapping<BR>>
user requirements/needs for new media toolset (need assessment); 2)<BR>>
facilitating training workshop (teaching users how to use the<BR>> new
media<BR>> toolset in a local level); 3) evaluation. Can all
interested<BR>> people go<BR>> to the wiki page and put your name and
affiliation in the<BR>> category you<BR>> wish to participate?
