Third Cinema addresses the neocolonialist dilemma. What is a contemporary sonic cinema of subversion? Is there the possibility of a revolutionary sonics in the age of attention economics? Anti- cinema is left with a paradox, survive within or subvert. This program includes recordings of social justice meetings, community meetings, workshops, speeches, traditional songs and poetry from different civil rights leaders from the Black and Brown movements.

Third Cinema listening sessions engage issues of civil rights, social justice and community.

What is the nature of the techno commons? Does listening have borders?
