From the guerrilla video squads of the 1960s to the slicker but more conventional programming today, Barefoot Channel traces the history of community access television and proposes a future direction. The author—a former Shaw Cable employee and programmer—argues that control of the community channel system must be returned to the citizenry as originally envisioned to foster democratic communications as a bulwark against increasingly centralized media.
A 150-page compendium of poems, prose, journal entries, graffiti and photographs reconstructing a landscape of cutural decay inhabited by the homeless population of Nanaimo, British Columbia, but by extension all our cities.
An essential history for those interested in understanding the longstanding problem of nuclear-powered and nuclear-armed American submarines traversing sovereign Canadian waters, and the protest activity of pacifists determined to stop the practice, written by an ex-American journalist now living in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island. With black and white photos and maps.
This is a collection of 66 poems modeled after the 66-move sequence of a 1,000-year-old martial art from China known as Liuhebafa. The book concludes with 30 pages of endnotes in which the author decodes the Taoist metaphysical symbolism of the 66 ancient titles (e.g., "Stop Cart and Ask Directions ", "Hold Horse At Cliff") . This information has never before been systematically presented in English.
