 ##New proposal:
 
-I want to organise public speech workshops and live-streaming sessions that connect the public space with the private, the digital/net with the physical and explores the possiblities of public assemblies in both spaces. The engagement of the speakers and the crowd with the (low)technology can give more potentials on public assemblies and speeches. It is also a way to diminish the division between amateur and expert, different genders, politicians and citizens, priviliged and non-privileged. What technologies are these (open sourcem inclufing body) that publish public speeches? It can take the form of an interface (pad and live streaming) while doing my actions with others.

+I wanted to bring this conversation on privacy and public expression into real spaces with the use of media technology as it is today.
 
-This restriction of use of technology to the public for amplification of speech is not the only one that prevents people from creating public assemblies. It’s somehow controversial when the citizens have to ask for the use of technology in public spaces but the states install surveillance devices in the streets and squares and gather data of them without their concent. I found several restrictions regarding public assemblies. In Rotterdam, in a specific area where a market of immigrants is being held, there is a ban on public assembly: “In problem areas, the Local Ordinance (Algemene Plaatselijke Verordening) allows municipalities to proclaim a ban on public assembly. Originating from the 2000 European Football Championships held in Rotterdam, it continues to be in effect on the Afrikaandermarkt. Although previously legitimated by anti-hooliganism, it is now enforced due to anti-terrorist concerns” (Free House, no date). Besides local bans on the name of ‘public good’, in some cases surveillance with several technologies and devices is applied. The installation of these devices in the public space conflicts with the constitution. Examples of such technologies and practices that surveil public assemblies are the operation of CCTV cameras and the collection of personal data through videotaping and photographing. In the case of UK the state use “visible, overt police surveillance tactics in the context of political assemblies” (Aston, 2017, p. 1) on a way that tresspass the privacy rights of the protesters. Similarly in Greece, the “electronic surveillance of public assemblies has been a controversial topic in the Greek public arena, particularly during the parliamentary discussion of Law 3625/2007. This Law exempted all police activities involving data processing during public assemblies from their obligation to protect the fundamental principles deriving from the rights to privacy and data protection”

-Why:
+###Why
 Coming from a country were the public presence and resistance is on stake, gender inequalities are reflected in the public and the engagememt with the technology is divided in the male expert and the other amateur, I felt the need to embrace this side of technology and awaken it and the demand for presence through my own eyes. Coming to a country were the public presence is highly controlled and surveilled. Use of technology for controling the crowd that is not expressed in public but online. The bodily representation and face to face communication not on priority in matters of democracy and agonistic arena. Reflecting the issues arisen on the rights on speech and open use of public spaces. Interrogating the contribution of daily technologies like livestraming and their exploitation by social media companies. Surveillance with personal assistants, listening to the crowd

 Parts of my previous proposal may come back in the future if they fit my development. My approach may look chaotic but everyting comes together and make sense at the end. I collect and search through the broader context of the topic but then I simplify a lot the whole process. I try small experiments, then I come back to research and then experiments again.
