Becoming a BlackBook Activist is one way of illustrating the changes you want to
see in the world. Right now, you're probably thinking that you can't really
change anything by yourself. This is not necessarily the case. You regularly
impact on your environment without realising (it). By presenting the unexpected,
you have the power to alter and change people's daily routines one intervention
at a time.
Our resources have the potential to create a domino effect. Little by little,
you have the ability to take control. Collectively, these small interventions
could have a gargantuan effect.
We suggest you start by reading up on our SOCPA Texts to mentally prepare for
what you're up against. In this section, you'll find a full copy of SOCPA, a map
of the exclusion zone, and other people's accounts and experiences. But it
doesn't stop there. It all becomes about you leaving your mark where and when
you want to:
The Projects section explores how new art-inspired technologies can be used for
protest. Each project links out to a microsite containing open-source tutorials,
information and downloads to energise and inspire. This is extended in the
Downloads section where more resources can be found to ensure that you are fully
supplied with the right information to put your anti-SOCPA ideas into action.
Examples include our way to fill out a SOCPA form (100% legal of course), the
importance of dress code, as well as "how to" tutorials to make your own
equipment.
Finally, BlackBook Zone is all about interaction: take part in our events and
missions to win exclusive BBA gear, or check out our galleries and videos. Your contribution will inspire others to continue what we've started. If you
think we've left anything out, or you come across anything useful, don't forget
to let us know.
So...get creative, good luck and have fun being a BlackBook Activist!
