This is an open invitation to participate in Indymedia London in whatever aspect you think you could help out. There are many ways and projects you could get involved with: from helping out with the technical aspect of developing the website, or helping to maintain the Open Publishing right hand side column (the newswire), or producing features for the middle column, to a variety of offline activities such as film screenings, stalls at events, reporting from the streets and whatever else you may come up with. Possibilities are endless!
The IMC London collective has regular face to face open meetings, and they currently take place on the last Wednesday of every month.
The next two planned meetings will be on:
- Wednesday 31 May
- Wednesday 28 June
Where:The Square Social Centre
21 Russell Square, London WC1 [Map]
Meetings start at 7.30pm.
Please feel free to come and share your ideas, knowledge and skills. The agendas for these meetings are proposed and discussed in the IMC-London email list. This is an open list that anyone can subscribe to, and where the day to day running of the project takes place. Check it out.
Also, for those interested in getting to grips with how the Indymedia 'back office' works, there are montlhy training workshops available and open to everyone. These generally take place on the Sunday before the meetings, so people have a chance to familiarise with different aspects of the project.
The next planned Indymedia training workshop will be on:
- Sunday 28 May
Where: RampART Social Centre
15-17 Rampart Street, London E1 [Map]
Workshops start at 3pm.
Finally, any contribution to the running and development of IMC-London is always much appreciated. The same as with any other local IMC within the IMC-UK Network, IMC-London can only be as relevant and useful to the people, campaigns, initiatives, groups and networks of London as we all make it!
Additional training sessions can also be arranged by emailing the IM-London list. Also, the Creative Media Lab at RampART Social Centre is open on a weekly basis on Saturdays, where further one-to-one tuitions on Indymedia and free software applications are also available.
