Diana & Rama met during an activist film festival in Barcelona: we spent hours talking about technology, gender, art, politics, Europe, Africa, specific countries and how to make media that matters. We also talked about hacking - socially and technically - and what it means to across different platforms - social and technical. She was there as director and producer of "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" and I was there as the cosmic advisor for "Spell Reel." Both of these films deal with guerilla media in Africa - but can be used to look at the whole world. We'd like to continue this conversation in public with the specific environment of the Chaos Computer Congress because we think it would matter there and bring us both new insights into our own work
