Thanks Helen,

I've got this queued up and am ready to pounce on this link :)

In my view "We have a Situation" is a very important project. It goes deep, and involves people creatively with the work of co-constructing and performing rhetoric on political topics that directly impact their lives. It's at the other end of the continuum of online activism from social media clicktivism.

hi everyone,

my chapter "We have a Situation! Cyberformance and Civic Engagement in Post-Democracy" is about to be published in the book "Convergence of Contemporary Art, Visual Culture, and Global Civic Engagement", edited by Ryan Shin.

the chapter documents the political cyberformance project "We have a situation!", specifically focusing on the "situation" in Rio de Janeiro last year (which looked at the water pollution crisis in the context of the build-up to the olympics), & examines how cyberformance can promote proto-political engagement and post-democratic citizen activism (with a look at how mainstream social media is NOT doing this).
