SCAN

SCAN Structures for Collaborative Audio Networks is a mobile strategy for the promotion and broadcast of free speech in public contexts.

SCAN is a mobile facility consisting of two participatory projects, PeacePod and Talkaoke, combined with locative media to broadcast and archive content online and within communities.

PeacePod is a mobile spherical forum that is suspended to encourage people to meet; its creators Joel Gray and Dimitri Launder of The Collaborators facilitate participant engagement. Talkaoke is a spontaneous talk show where anyone can take a seat and air their views at the round table on wheels where the creator, Michael Weinkove of The People Speak, hosts sessions.

The audio facility enables audiences to contribute their own content to scan.fm via embedded devices within PeacePod and Talkaoke. Remote users will be able to listen to the stream via scan.fm and contribute to live events and annotateable archives by phone.

SCAN workshops will be programmed at community centres in Tower Hamlets through out March in partnership with ART.e @ The Art of Change and Leaside Regeneration.
