freeFormed in the ITP Winter Show 2006
For the last three months, freeFormed.org has been working with Witness.org on the Human Rights Video Hub Pilot. The Human Rights Video Hub Pilot is a collaborative project between Witness.org, Global Voices and freeformed.org created with the intention to encourage people to record the human rights abuses they witness with their mobile phones and submit the videos via MMS messaging or through a J2ME application to a witness review board for curation and publication on the globalvoicesonline site.
The project is expected to go live on December 17th, 2006. To view more information go here.
The project is also being exhibited at the ITP Winter Show 2006.

A two-day festival of interactive sight, sound and technology from the student artists and innovators at ITP.
An oversized Greenwich Village loft houses the computer labs, rotating exhibitions, and production workshops that are ITP -- the Interactive Telecommunications Program. Founded in 1979 as the first graduate education program in alternative media, ITP has grown into a living community of technologists, theorists, engineers, designers, and artists uniquely dedicated to pushing the boundaries of interactivity in the real and digital worlds. A hands-on approach to experimentation, production and risk-taking make this hi-tech fun house a creative home not only to its 230 students, but also to an extended network of the technology industry's most daring and prolific practitioners.
