He who says zero he who says one is a project by the artist Nabil Ahmed.
It consists of integrating the performance of a Lehrstück or learning-play
by Bertold Brecht, adapted for humans and ELIZA (one of the early examples
of natural language processing by a computer program) to create a forum in
the space of no.w.here on the exigency of alternative education in the
ongoing assault on education and the arts.
The Radio shows on Resonance FM commence Wednesday April 13th, 9 - 10pm,
and continue every Wednesday at the same time.
April 13th: Event | Score - Matt Lewis and Lawrence Upton
This session is aimed at introducing listeners to current radical
education work taking place in the UK, whether in classrooms, or free
schools. How do these models stack up against academia and the widespread
cuts against education and the arts? How can social classes be mobilized,
included and engaged in transforming conditions of work and life?

I recorded (with the others mentioned) my bit of this during this
morning... Have to say I'm not entirely sure I recognise that last para as
what we did
but it, what we did, was quite jolly, I think
I live only a few miles from Resonance but can't get it. You really have
to be next door, it seems. There'll be a podcast version in due course.
