    • How do we pay rent? We're offering to steward the space and renovate it. It will bring people and cool projects. We could rent the room. Do a monthly meal to raise money. "dinner and a movie". Having a non compulsory membership. We could pay utilities but not rent.

  • SHARED VISION

1- A clear description of our vision (for example) "A space dedicated to community media, that allows for people to tell their own stories or make their own media without depending on the institutions in power to get the resources they need. A space based on an idea of solidarity, resources, knowledge and skill sharing."

2- some basic values to agree with: - Horizontality - non hierarchical - Safe space

  • agreed upon*
  • Visions for the space -

Noemie: Pool resources for people to tell stories that the mainstream media ignores, include radio and music, etc. Lauren: Blackhole needs a light-controlled, lockable editing space. Liz: Radio and TV production, internet broadcasting, possible newscast-type studio setup, computer suite for photo, animation, editing, etc. Bunker: Radio room and TV switching, editing room Shake: All kinds of media, promoting each other's work Christina: Preservation of analog film ideally. Participate publically as much as possible Anka: Put all media creation in the same spot, but figure out if spacially we can co-exist Kwe: Modular stations for all kinds of media creation, community radio station, music production and recording, emphasis on ability to rearrange the space according to people's needs. Averse to permanent walls Tyler: Ability to support one another, free education Brandon: Oakland Next's outreach program, music production. Fine with Blackhole's wall proposal Sarah: Editing suite, ability to use sound recording rooms for ADR/foley. Irisha: Very new here, photographer, analog and digital
