The 5th of may Dawn Karachi Metropolitan published a interview with me. The interview is taken in April when i visited Karachi for the shooting of my new documentary 'Opening Up' (worktitle).
De afgelopen tijd heeft Format23 samengewerkt met Jongeren Milieu Actief voor het video gedeelte van de campagne 'Kies voor Klimaat'. Begin maart werd er een workshop gegeven aan de jongeren ambassadeurs van JMA waarin ze les kregen in de basisvaardigheden van camjo verslaggeving. Afgelopen maand zijn de jongeren ambassadeurs het land in gegaan om verschillende EU kandidaten aan de tand te voelen, wat resulteerde in 9 filmpjes die nu te zien zijn op de vers gelanceerde campagne site: www.kiesvoorklimaat.eu.

KARACHI, April 7: As such critical global issues as the financial crisis, climate change, the growing gap between the world’s haves and have-nots and other such grave matters spiral out of control, it has been noticed that the frequency and intensity of protests targeting multilateral talk-fests are growing. Perhaps the latest example of this was the violence that accompanied the recent G20 summit in London.
However, though the protesters are mostly portrayed as violent, clueless louts in the mass media, Dutch film-maker Suzanne Hogendoorn’s highly watchable documentary We Will Block You presents the other side of the picture. The nearly hour-long film – screened on Tuesday at the Goethe-Institute – portrays the anti-Capitalism/anti-globalisation demonstrators as largely committed, peaceful young activists often provoked by law-enforcement personnel into violence.
The setting of the film is 2007’s G8 summit, held in the German seaside resort of Heiligendamm, as well as the nearby town of Rostock. The director follows two groups of Dutch university students who make the journey from the Netherlands to Germany in order to take part in the protests.
The young demonstrators first gather in Rostock, pitching tents and organising themselves, as they meet up with likeminded comrades from the rest of Europe, all aligned against the G8 and what it stands for. The first protest is a cacophonous gathering of the tribes, with socialists, anarchists, environmental activists and anti-war campaigners coming together to denounce what they consider to be an unjust world order.

We Will Block You screened at Goethe institute in Karachi
An evening on Media and Activism
07 April 2009,
5:30 pm to 8:30 pm
Goethe Institute, Karachi
Do media and activism always go together. How does an activist media fill the gaps. How do the new technologies fit in this picture. What does this increased access to information mean for our culture and society.
In a timely note Rob van Kranenburg observes the present age of acceleration. Suzanne Hogendoorn presents her film on European activists at the G8 Summit 2007. Awab Alvi gives us a behind-the-web look at citizens covering the Long March in March 2009 using internet & cellphones. Journalists from news channels will talk about how they use new media in their work. Discussion on linkages on these themes will follow.
